"I wish I could adequately convey the profound pleasure and satisfaction
that the new speakers are giving me.
How remarkable that the same undiminished enthusiasm that the A-1s generated ten
years ago has been heightened by the latest version [PX] which, in effect, I am
now hearing. Although the newest evolution clearly has the same DNA as the
former, that they could sound so clearly superior came as a huge and unexpected
surprise.
Over the years as you and your family at Sound Lab sequentially hear each of the
series of subtle refinements as you make them, you may not truly appreciate the
cumulative distillation that one hears going directly from version A to version
Z. I hear a substantially more detailed and nuanced sound, articulate and
accurate right down to the lowest notes. I have a sub-woofer which I have
not felt encouraged to re-connect.
I may be mistaken but the new speakers seem to have more horse-power which makes
the entire recreation appear effortless. Not only that, there appears to
be a lot more information which illuminates the stage from left to right and
front to back. Orchestral tuttis are most inspiring but this afternoon I
am listening to string quartets which materialize as four individual instruments
of correct size and placement. I have been getting up in the middle of the
night to listen again to confirm that I'm not simply deluding myself.
Everything happened for the best, it seems.
My kindest regards to you all, Bruce (Canada)
