At the weekend I went to the Audio Deluxe show in the UK and heard one of the most impressive systems I’ve ever heard. I’ve heard Kroma speakers on previous occasions and invariably been very impressed. The model in this system was this one: https://kromaatelier.com/jovita/
It uses 2 x Purifi 6.5 and 1 x 8” plus a Mundorf AMT. Despite using just one 8” woofer the bass was superb and went plenty deep enough for 2 channel hi fi.
The real surprise was the amp that they were using at least some of the time. it was a Swiss brand I’ve never previously heard of - this is it:https://tw.my-hiend.com/純淨透明的不凡氣質-瑞士orpheus-absolute綜合擴大機/
It was only later that I found this review and discovered it uses LM3886s. As the owner of some Neurochrome amps I know just how pur and transparent these can be when implemented well, and Orpheus certainly seem to have done that.
This combo produced truly awesome sound. I went back to the room 3 times and it was noticeable how long people were staying in the room to listen - much longer than is typical at such shows. I think I have only ever heard one other system that impressed me more and that featured the Vox Olympian speakers . . . .
