So yesterday David of Viking brought over a pair of TubeMaster speakers he wanted me to hear. I did have a pair of his Berlins but no more. Once I heard the TM's i had to have them. They aren't horns but they are high efficient. 98db. The speakers are so rich sounding. Bass is excellent. The highs are excellent. It's the midrange that really moved me. They are being powered by Allnic A5000dht amps. A marriage made in heaven. We played record after record. After quite a few hours he was ready to leave but not with the TM's. He kindly took my Berlin's in On trade. I've been playing records and cd's all day. I'm in love

Did you get your speakers yet?
I was told yesterday that my horns are finally done. The rest of the speakers have been done for quite a while so it should only be a matter of a little final assembly then shipping.

Great. You'll have to finally post your system once it's done.

Berlin R mk3
How did you find out about Viking? I live in Santa Fe and saw an add on Audiogon and noticed he was located here. I contacted David and auditioned the Berlins. I bought them On the spot.

I’ve had 3 pairs of Vikings, the Berlin R mk3 will be the 4th. I believe I heard about them from RMAF back in 2013.

I have had the Viking Acoustic Grande Voix dual horn speakers for about 5 month and as Enya would say "Nothing Compare to you".

I heard Grand Voix in David's huge studio. They more than filled the space and sounded wonderful.

If they were black they were probably my speakers that you listened to.
