    Alsyvox vs. Clarisys - What are the Sonic Differences? Anyone Understand Design Differences?

    I've now heard both in well set-up rooms - Clarisys at Florian's and Alsyvox at Bob's. The challenge is that those rooms are very different and the partnering equipment, although both solid-state throughout, also differ. As such, I'm inclined not to draw rigid conclusions but have a few loose...

    Pilium Audio in action-

    I had the pleasure of listening to Son's incredible system last week, and was certainly a fun experience! The system has incredible power and grip over the music, never becoming strained, muddied, or losing instrument separation no matter the volume or complexity of the music. In particular, I...

    Rhapsody.Audio Listening Rooms

    I echo what Thundersnow says - I visited Bob yesterday at the end of a business trip primarily to hear the Alsyvox given the lack of distributor here in the UK, but ended up listening to the other systems too. I learned a lot, heard some great music on some world-class systems which made the...

    Maybe, but not sure tonality is purely a function of intimacy.

    CH M1.1 or A1.5 x 2

    Personally I think adding more CH power amps to the situation is throwing good money after bad. If you don't like what you are hearing with one A1.5 then I don't see things improving much from there. Yes you might get more but the signature is the same IMHO.

    I guess my experience and the above comments reinforce the age-old point that the only true way to evaluate a hifi component is in your own listening room with your own components. This is perhaps even more so given how different the system and surroundings were in this instance.

    Apologies for the delay - it's taken a while to process my thoughts as the system is so different to what I'm used to in many different ways. First off, huge thanks to Florian and Daisy for being such fantastic hosts - it was an honour to spend time with someone so knowledgable and passionate...

    Alsyvox vs. Clarisys - What are the Sonic Differences? Anyone Understand Design Differences?

    As another person who preferred Alsyvox over Clarysis in Munch, I'd be very interested in more detailed explanations. If anywhere is a place to open a can of worms, it is this forum. We're all the better for objective discussions!
