Reviews

This system is by far the most awesome sounding system I have heard in my 20+ years of experience! Such a dynamic and finest treble, no common digital medium gets. Even if you record it with a high quality soundcard in a PC, it sounds more dynamic and natural than any CDDA. The prerequisite is a high quality medium, high quality mixed music on vinyl, without waves and scratches. And even if it is techno (WestBam - CrashCourse), the system and medium brings a touch of naturalness to the synthetic music.

Original price 1992: 599,- DM
