Vinyl, valves, wood. A very traditional combination of components, yet at the same time thoroughly modern designs and performance. Thankfully there was a good range and variety of music on offer in this room, so that was good as it gives a chance to have a proper listen. The Living Voice R80 again performed well in this room and this system combination, despite being right on the edge of being too big for the room. It seems the Kuzma - SJS Arcadia synergy is delivered well in this speaker - by far the most musical and coherent speaker I've heard from LV (yes, I've heard the Vox Olympians) - airy, punchy but controlled, imaging well and pushing the emotions in vocal performances. Definitive Audio fed the system from the Audes DT-3600 power conditioner, making a break from their usual battery array, making the system far more domestically acceptable. The room was busy on each visit - visitors finding it a good place to spend some time listening to music.
"What a refreshingly honest blog about listening to music through hi-fi. So happy to see views based upon the enjoyment of music rather than so-called sound 'quality'." - Peter Comeau, Director of Acoustic Design at Mission / Wharfedale
