"The ST5 is certainly stylish, with its slender looks and simple display, complete with characters easy enough to read across the room. By keeping things simple, from the looks to the information presented on the display, the company has created a design that’s as easy to use – especially with the new Radia app – as entirely modern in its styling, while the communications link to the amplifiers increases that convenience."
