    LampizatOr Amber 2 - heavily underestimated gem

    I would agree...Lampi is amazing...my dealer now has a Pacific DAC for demo and I can tell you from first hand experience, it just crushed his Esoteric K01xs SACD unit.

    Funny predicament we find ourselves in the world of the high end. A well regarded car mag may be able to gather the top 10 super cars in the world and thrash them on the Nordschleife and report to you exact times and speeds along the track and proclaim a winner. Does this mean the declared...

    I wish I was taking a break as Bodhi suggested..been busy building to fill orders. Regarding your room... THe 13.5' dimension is about minimum width, since the speakers are 19.5" wide and you would want them at least 6 - 7ft apart and a foot from the side walls. The 25' dimension would...

    GT AUDIO WORKS AXPONA 2019 RM 1430

    I had them set to 50 hz at the show. I find in most rooms they will be set between 50-60 hz. The EQ on the sub amp may require an adjustment to help room response. In this case the room response had a dip at 65hz so we bumped the eq up in that range to compensate. The number of subs depends on...

    Considering space was tight in that room, the system sounded great. Dipole bass helps tame room boom. Those Zanden KR845 amps really had a lot of get up and go for 60 watts. Later we tried the Zanden stereo amp with a pair of KT120's per channel...gained low end grunt, but lost some of the mid...

    Anyone hear the 30.7? Impressions? Make sense to spend THAT Money on a Magnepan?

    UPDATE.... We have a change in the lineup for Axpona. Semper Sonus had to back out at this late date, due to a personal issue regarding the US distributor. Bill Parish of GTT Audio was very kind to offer me a Kronos Sparta turntable to use at the show. http://www.kronosaudio.com/sparta.html...
