I rarely get to see/hear serious audiophile setups but this evening I was at a party in NYC and the hosts had some pretty serious kit, I thought you folks might help me identify some of the stuff and give me an idea of how it ranks? Feel free to flame :) Apparently the man of the house reviews for one of the audio magazines so I have no idea if what I saw was his own rig or review gear.
Anyway...the main stuff appeared to be the Behold range (http://www.behold.eu/page.php?en100000) - specifically the APU768, BPA768-484-B & CDP. The speakers are a little more mysterious. I should have taken a photo but felt a little weird doing so, but I'm pretty sure the name on the front said Spectral Cables. But they seem to only make cables, not speakers, so I've no idea who made them. They were probably 5-6ft tall, 1ft wide and 2 deep, finished in piano black. There was what looked like a huge front facing bass port at ear level (basically just a giant tube with I guess a cone at the back but I could hardly see) and some smaller ones further down, and a small metal tweeter high up on top. Any ideas? I'm curious as to what the hell they were. As for sound, it was not a good environment for listening, but they were sure loud! One thing that disappointed me was that with all the amazing equipment the actual source in use tonight was the line out jack of a laptop! I need to get a TP into that place... -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49250 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
