New Wadax Atlantis Reference Dac

[spiritofmusic]

Maybe the old phrase "if you need to ask the price, you can't afford it" should be amended to "if you need to demo it, it's really not for you" Lol

Then they should say we don’t have anything to demo at the moment.

He has but wont do it

Yes indeed! They are looking for blind mice to test the cheese - careful of the mouse trap!

The trap only springs when you pass your bank details over.

I suspect it's easier to test drive a Zonda, La Ferrari or Veyron, than it's a Wadax Ref, AF0, Divin Majestik, Troy NG etc. And fewer Qs asked Lol.

Sure !!!

Aye the akasa is a neutrik off the shelf cable packaged up nicely, I think thats common knowledge out there. Doesn't mean the dac is not a good dac though - just need more independent ppl to listen to it

I think for this level, its not about the money but more about the risk of getting schnooked. If ch came out with a dac at this level, given it's pedigree its easy to just buy it without a listen or audition...Wadax just doesn't have the orbit of well and true established brands.

It's just that in HK, expensive gear is not necessarily for the hearing but rather it is a good battle of the wallets, to show off, to get face and then having said that you can sell cow poo to a cow farmer in Hong Kong too Such is the feeling of living in an apartment that the only show of wealth is in things like this , jewellery, watches, art - hence the vibrant auction house scene in HK. the design of the reference certainly appeals to the asian taste

What does Akasa mean ? Is it Japanese for '"Big yellow snake " specifically catering to the Asian market ?

When the man really wants to buy a product with $145k, he will find the way to own it. You cannot borrow the wedding dresses to try them at your wedding ceremony and you promise you will buy them if you feel happy.

Of course you try the wedding suit before the wedding, and you can try a lot of them. And you can pay hiring fee no need to own forever

How does the bride fit into all this? Can I try her out before I marry her?

Yes and you have to try them at the shop, not your home.

We talking figuratively here not literally Steve And it is not about buying a $145k product, its understanding and making sure that the product is useful for what you have. Less so the money, more so the usefulness . Every salesman will sell it till it melts - it is the responsibility of the consumer to judge on usefulness; therein the goals of a salesperson and the goals of a customer might not be truly aligned leading to biases and an over exuberance in products.

Haha, yes, converted chapel. With ongoing property costs...puts audio spending into real perspective. I'm gonna end up like one of the English upper classes, lots of property...but not a penny to my name Lol.

But what a beautiful property and system! I think most rich ppl actually dont want to have a penny to their name. the key is in the control of assets rather than the owning of You are on the right track there for sure and if anything fails....well there is still the bride

 

[spiritofmusic]

Haha, well, we're not married, but as good as. The chapel has taken over as major removal of my funds over audiophilia. I salute anyone who has a fantastic home AND can stretch to the likes of Wadax Ref.

Given the degree of interest for Wadax about its design and manufacturing process, in the next few days, there will be an official post in the website with some interesting insight info on the company to share with all followers.
