Audiophile-1

 

A-1"The A-1 is about elevating reproduced music to the level of the live experience, . . . That they succeed to this extent is a miracle that every audiophile should experience at least once in his or her lifetime, . . . they’ve got me excited about music like never before. The A-1 was capable of sketching the outlines of a piano or chorus with lifelike dimensions that had me hooked like never before, . . . I was captivated by the sensation of having my favorite singers standing before me as if in the flesh. The realism of the height perspective made me want to run right up to these phantoms and hug them out of sheer joy."

"The awesome performance of the A-1 has become a legend, and will forever change the way you hear reproduced sound. The A-1 stands at the forefront of loudspeaker design. There has never been a single membrane loudspeaker that reproduces the audio spectrum as faithfully as the A-1."
     Perfectionists and reviewers have acclaimed the naturalness and ease with which it represents music in all of its forms. There is an addiction to the A-1 such that, upon auditioning it, you will never view music reproduction as before. This is the last speaker that you will ever buy.
