When I listened to these filters, we (Chantal and I) were surprised by the sense of sound relief, a much better soundstage. Wider, deeper and more precisely located, instruments become more live than merely reproduced by a CD media.
This was evident on David GILMOUR high hopes. The sound of the bell at the beginning of the piece is really clear, palpable. David’s voice is low, barely rough, organic. Stratocaster rifs seems unlimited and give us a sense a thereness very engaging.
On this very good record of Chie AYADO, a Japanese female jazz singer and pianist, listening to a House of Gold or Imagine (Beatles..), the voice is as transparent as it is possible to listen to in a recording studio. Power, minute details, wahoo… The piano is breathless, precision, naturalness of tones, and again a placement in the room that is very similar to what people listen in a private concert.
On this record I know for years, I cannot say that the sound is better than before, not even upgraded, it’s much more than that. It’s just if you listen to a concert row 3 with access to each note, detail, echo of the Olympia stage. Sound is laid bare, very much like when I listen to live an amplified music.
ALSYVOX Botticelli X (i.e with external filters) is an expensive speaker system, but it’s the first time in 40 years that I could really say that music at home is very similar to live performance.
Hat off Daniele and Paola for this rewarding system, that enhance my joy of listening to music, a so important thing for me.
PS : with internal crossovers, the quality of jumpers is mandatory. I tried many, and 2 stand over the competition, ARHAT ou best, ARHAT Lightspeed jumpers from PRANAWIRE.
