    Re-imagining "Class A" Amplification

    This AXPONA will be the first anniversary of showing our loudspeakers with the impressive WestminsterLab electronics and I'm in no way surprised Robert was so impressed with the REI amps. I guess this is my way of saying, "I was into the band before they became popular." ;)

    Capital Audiofest 2023

    I'm sorry Tony but we will not have a manufacturer presence at this year's show.

    Capital Audiofest 2023

    We're such fans of the system we showed the ESE with for AXPONA, we debuted the VR-55 MkII on this excellent gear at CAF. I can't find a single flaw in this pairing... so much so that I don't analyze what I'm hearing and just enjoy it.

    Center Stage2 LS 1.5 Speaker Footer Experience

    I absolutely understand skepticism, I prefer to hear components to analyze their performance firsthand, especially before incorporating it into one of my systems. But your post seems to be; unless I'm misunderstanding it, faith based and not objective based. You believe it therefore it is which...

    Sorry to that my friend. As of now, I don't think we're doing the Florida show. Leif and I are evaluating which shows we'll doing going forward and we plan to incorporate more international shows which will mean less Domestic.

    Introducing Center Stage 2M

    Dear Robert, 1 - I'm sorry but I'm confused by this statement. I would be very surprised if the threaded portion of the spike is 44mm in diameter On many speakers, they are M8 or M10 and sometimes 3.4" diameter, etc. And I don't understand what you mean by the 0.6mm step up. Is it possible...

    Introducing Center Stage 2M

    If I may Robert, I would be happy to assist with your question. The CMS LS 1.0 would replace both the Kharma footer as well as the spike. For ease of use with your speakers, I advise either mounting them directly under the plinths or utilize the spike insert along with our titanium adapters...
