CES 2015 Las Vegas wrap-up

The cooperation with Marten, Prana Wires and Hanss Turntables at this year's CES in Las Vegas was very successful. Our KR Audio amplifiers drove the Marten Coltrane speakers to peak performance. In fact, we will repeat this in exactly the same configuration at this year's Newport Beach Show. More info in the next Newsletter.

We're proud to announce award Nr.8 for Auroasound's VIDA phono stage:

Key Kim, StereoTimes (January 2015):
"...the elegantly built VIDA incorporates state-of-the-art semiconductor technology (LCR-type network) and old-world craftsmanship to create a top performing phono amplifier. I’m really enjoying my vinyl collection immensely with the VIDA; its black background is what sets the stage for its remarkable resolution, openness, and harmonic integrity..."

Wall Audio M50 PSET
mono-blocks

We are also very proud that these German mono-blocks made such a big impact and received the Most Wanted Component Award on the first review. When we imported the first pair we knew right away that the sound of these little Class-A amps is very special.

Key Kim, StereoTimes wrote:
"...this amp is a parallel single-ended triode, pure Class-A design, using two 6C33 tubes per side to produce 35-watts of pure German power. The M50 PSET drives my Consensus Audio Conspiracy loudspeakers beautifully. It is at once, open, transparent, and natural sounding - with gorgeous midrange fidelity..." (full review coming soon)

Langerton Configuration Duo Capable loudspeakers

An extremely demanding development project by Norbert Heinz. The treble unit and midrange/bass unit are mechanically fully decoupled and moveable relative to each other. This permits previously unheard-of phase homogeneity. The overall configuration is equipped with the best respective single components.

Marco Kolks of Hoererlerlebnis:
"...the Duo Capable thrills listeners with its clarity of resolution, speed and timbres that caress the listener. It has a soul that cannot be found in many alternative systems, and anyone with an open mind will appreciate this... You need good amplifiers; this is important. However, with the Duo Capable you can then enjoy music in a way that is possible with very few other speakers. For anyone who has grasped this for themselves, the price won‘t detract from their desire to have one either. When it comes to loudspeakers, the bar has been raised..." Check it out

KR Audio VA830 integrated 300B amplifier

KR Audio's chief engineer Marek Gencev's latest product is the brand new push-pull integrated tube amplifier based on the amazing in-house made 300B tubes. The VA830, as all KR Audio amps is a hybrid design and works in pure class A with zero feedback. The sound is clean, clear fast with a glorious midrange. The US retail price is $9,000.-

Juergen Saile, HIFISTATEMENT.com:

"...the KR Audio VA830 integrated amp delivers a modern sound. With 'modern' I don’t mean all the stuff my daughter fills up her ears with, but rather more in the direction of neutral, uncolored and controlled reproduction. And with the necessary touch of warmth and magic thanks to the 300B tubes..." Check it out

Synergistic Research Atmosphere Cable Series

The new Atmosphere Series cables deliver music on a massive scale with the same ultra black backgrounds Synergistic Research Active Shielded Cables are famous for. In fact Atmosphere Series cables are the most holographic and highest resolution interconnects and speaker cables Synergistic Research ever produced coming remarkably close to the Reference Galileo LE interconnects and speaker cables.

Thanks to significantly reduced build times and cutting edge Synergistic Research technology, Atmosphere Series Cables deliver state-of-the-art performance at price points other cables cannot match. In fact Atmosphere Series Level 4 surpasses even the most expensive flagship models from top competitors and can be easily confirmed through an in home audition. Atmosphere Series cables set a new benchmark for absolute performance levels AND value. The price of 1 meter interconnect cables reaches from $695 - $2495 and for speaker cables $895 - $4995.
