SONIC ARTISTRY
It was a pleasure to see Jonathan again, who, in my opinion, is an all around good guy, gracious, and a true gentleman.
The Sonic Artistry room featured the MERGING TECHNOLOGIES Streaming DAC, the darTZeel Audio LHC-208 MKII DAC, Streamer, and Integrated Amplifier, the STENHEIM Alumine 3SE special edition Speakers, and the SEISMON Active Isolation Bases.
The music from this system was articulate, detailed, highly resolving, and superbly musical. The bass foundation via the Alumine 3SE brought a gravitas and palpability to the entire frequency range that was also tight, dynamic, and natural. Miles Davis’ trumpet via the Kind of Blue album had all the natural blat and texture and immediacy that one expects from a performance. I came back a few times to hear this system and was rewarded every time. A Best of Show room hands down.
