The Acoustic Zen Adagio speakers are superb sonically and competitive with many far more expensive speakers. At only $4,300/pr for the Adagio and $3500/p for the new Junior, they are quite special. Read the 6moons.com review as well as the Stereophile review and then call me to discuss these amazing speakers.

The new Adagio loudspeaker uses a pair of 6.5-inch mid/woofers in a specialized ceramic/textile/ceramic sandwich design for maximum stiffness while minimizing cone breakup, flexing and resonance. An underhung voice coil motor (short coil, long gap) guarantees excellent linearity and a powerful reduction of both harmonic and TIM distortion. Both mid/woofers are loaded into a front-exiting transmission line.

A limited production modified 1.62-inch circular ribbon tweeter has high power handling characteristics along with a linear impedance and phase response. The 0.01mm heat resistant Kapton membrane is almost weightless, providing an immediate and precise response to any transients in the original music signal.

Nominal impedance is 6 ohm, sSensitivity is 89dB/W/m, overall frequency response is 30Hz to 30kHz (±3dB). Acoustic Zen cables are also available.

Exact Power and PS Audio pioneered the concept but only Audiophile ASP with integral backup battery power has taken it to its ultimate conclusion - the best power regeneration/voltage stabilization solution extant. "Auditioner beware: after hearing this level of performance improvement, there is no way I can live without PurePower in my system. The Audiophile APS PurePower 1050 provides improved sound, a picture improvement that has to be seen to be believed, and unparalleled safety for your pricey display and electronics. The PurePower 1050's sonic and video improvements eclipse the impressive feats I remember vividly while evaluating the Exact Power EP15A. Enthusiastically endorsed." Bryan Southard, AudiovideoRevolution.com, Feb 2005
"I found the 1050 to be a very effective product that is very easy to install and use. Given the fact that it is a solid, well made product and has such flexibility for installation, it becomes that much more attractive. Once in place, it is very easy to forget that it is in the system at all. Remove it and you will realize just what clean power means to your system. I am not aware of any other power line regenerator that has all of the capabilities of the APS 1050. Considering price, performance, technology and style, the Audiophile APS PurePower 1050 Power Conditioner receives my highest recommendation." Henry Wilkenson, Audiophila, March 2005

We first heard about this IC-based integrated wonder through a 6moons review which garnered an award from its Editor, to be followed by another award for the matching preamp and monoblocks as reviewed by Paul Candy. At CES 2004, we performed our own due diligence in the Audio Zone room and fell in love with what we heard. Built to tweaked-to-the-max standards, with extremely short signal paths and incredible speed and dynamics, this Canadian line represents minimalism at its best.

Familiar to guitar players around the world, DiMarzio decided to apply its expertise of pickup, humbucker, microphone and musician's cables to HiFi. Said OnHifi.com's ex-Stereophile guru Wes Phillips

"the DiMarzios were essentially what Larry D told me they were -- good-sounding affordable cables. That they are in spades. And their flexibility is a definite plus -- I'm tired of stiff cables that won't bend around corners. All three DiMarzio cables drape around objects like fine-spun silk..."

Gini Systems: The basic monitor speaker is a direct copy of the famous British LS3/5A broadcast monitor that sells today for $1500/pr. At only $560/pr, they are a superb value. They come in a real wood cabinet and sound great for under $600. The B+ Bass/Stand addition can be added at anytime for $630/pr. It is what makes the system really special. The system becomes a real full range speaker package that goes to the mid 30Hz bass range. This package is superb at this price. Imagine a quality monitor system with stands and woofers for under $1200. We know of nothing that will touch it for the price. Call us to discuss this superb speaker value.
  • Gini Systems LS-3/5A monitors $560/pr
  • B+ Bass Stands for the LS3.5A $630/pr

Stereomojo just gave the speaker their Maximum Mojo award. They summed up with: "What exactly do you get with the Gini system? The Gini monitors offer 97-98% of what the current BBC (or BBC styled) selections do in the mid-band and top end, and at a THIRD or less of their asking price. Here is the kicker. Add the B+ Bass Stands into the mix, and you get 100% of what those posh monitors DO NOT offer - bass. Not just bass, but presence and weight to the music, an entirely different listening experience. If I could sum up how well the Gini LS3/5a did I would have to say outstanding. If there are any sins of this little monitor, they are of omission, rather than commission. What they do, they do VERY well. Recommended for small rooms."

Because of their outstanding performance at a low pricepoint, the GINI LS5/3a with the B+ Bass Cabinets have earned our highest Stereomojo Maximum Mojo Award.

Graham Slee Projects is a specialist manufacturer of phono preamp stages and headphone amplifiers under the brand name GSP Audio. Their range of products is the result of a life long enthusiasm for vinyl from a designer who made his first phono preamp back in 1975. You can buy a bland-sounding phono preamp elsewhere for a few dollars, or spend a couple of thousand on one that'll "take your head off". Every phono preamp in the GSP range sounds good. The $999 Era Gold MKV preamp [$1,999 with Elevator EXP] is the star performer. It pulls more music out of the groove than you ever thought possible. For under $1,000, the Era Gold is an amazing value and now also a Stereophile Class A-rated giant killer. For low output moving coil fans, there is the Elevator range of step-up amplifiers. The EXP is specifically designed for use with the Era Gold bringing you the best MC combo on the market for under $1700. Two more models cater for owners of valve (tube) phono sections and preamps with built-in MM phono stages. The Amp 2SE phone section just became available for under $400.00 and is another great value.

Every Graham Slee product requires a "burn-in" period and is designed to be constantly powered-on.

  • "The Era Gold + Elevator EXP is the best phono combination for MC's I've ever heard - period" [Geoff Husband, TNT-Audio, July 2002]
  • "...the one the others have to beat" [Hi-Fi Plus, July/Aug 2003]
  • "...Graham Slee's miraculous Era Gold MkV phono preamp" [Michael Fremer, Stereophile, Jan 2004]
  • "... its sound has wings"[5-Star Test Winner, What Hi-Fi?, Feb 2004]

Dan Wright of Modwright has been building very high quality, high value products now for 5 years. The SWL9.0SE preamp was a superb first product that received many superb reviews. It brought true high end performance to a price point not touched before. This first product has been improved and the line has now morphed into a full array of preamps and phono preamps from $2495 (SWL9.0SE) to the statement LS-36.5 with 36.5 power supply at $8995. The phono stage is untouched at its price ($3495) and is an even greater value when bundled with the 9.0 Signature preamp at a $1500 savings for the package at $4995. Dan's first power amps will be coming late this year.

The 6moon review on the SWL9.0SE included the following summary:
"Dan Wright's first commercial production piece is a high-performance, low-noise, very linear remote-controlled valve linestage that excels at microdynamics, drive, bass control, resolution and dimensional soundstage enhancements. Further highlights but not as pronounced are image density and tone. Missing in action from the list of usual valved subjects is texture, bloom, softness and darkness. Build quality especially on the insides seems stellar, with parts that usually only appear in truly upscale units... a statement product." [Srajan Ebaen, 6moons.com]

Perusing Stereophile, you could be forgiven for thinking that British maker Musical Fidelity seems poised to grab the title for most heavily awarded brand ever. Regardless of what head honcho Anthony Michaelson submits for review, it seems predestined to soon appear in "Recommended Components". While the conspiracy theorists are having a field day, consumers worldwide benefit.

From overengineered construction to features, from hyper performance to price, it's easy to see why.

Please be advised that all Musical Fidelity products are available in the state of Georgia only.

Wyred 4 Sound manufactures amps at Cullen Circuits in California and sells them Internet direct to the end user. I am their only dealer. Because there are no dealer markups, these amps offer tremendous value and sell for a fraction of the price of other brands who use the exact same B&O ICE amplifiers. Compare them to amps from Rowland, Red Dragon, Genesis, Arnie Nudell's Infinity, PS Audio, Bel Canto and many more. Cullen Circuits has been manufacturing products for many other high end audio brands since 1990. They make products for companies such as PS Audio, Ampzilla, BGW and CAT.

There are mono, stereo and multichannel amps available, all at great prices!
  • 500 watt mono amps are $1199 each
  • 250 watt mono amps are $899 each150 watt stereo amps are $799
  • 125 watts per channel stereo amp is $995
  • 250 watts per channel stereo amp is $1495
  • 500 watts per channel stereo amp is $1995

The new MC multichannel platform offers the ultimate flexibility. With anywhere from 1 to 7 channels and power levels of 125, 250,and 500W (8 ohms), this amplifier adapts to your stereo. Because of the modular design, future upgrades are done with ease should you not need all 7 channels at the present time. Each channel is driven with an independent direct coupled, balanced dual FET input buffer. Components of the highest quality are being used from the power supply caps to the critical resistors. Wima audio-grade, Nichicon Muse caps and Dale Rn55d copper leads non-magnetic resistors are standard. With the selection of the high-pass filter on the front right and left channels, you can easily bi-amp your speakers without the use of any external crossover. Should you not want the crossover on, you can turn it off with the push of a button. With balanced or unbalanced inputs, you can easily select the input with another push button on the rear. Dual 15A IECs, internally connected with 10AWG wire, gives you the option to supply massive power to the amplifier and also allows the use of after-market power cables. Up to 7 sets of gold-plated binding posts are connected with pure silver paralleled with 99.9% OFC copper to deliver the music which we have all come to love.

Like all Wyred 4 Sound amps, the MC amplifiers have little to no heat, excellent imaging, extremely low noise, tight clean extended bass and throw a big 3=D soundstage. Distortion is exceptionally low. Check the prices below. They are about half that of the competition or even less.

With an infinite number of possible amp combinations almost anything is possible from 5 or 7 channel home theater to biamping or even tri-amping your speakers.

Return to Brand Nav Bar. For more information, visit the manufacturer's website. Then call me to discuss which amp would be best in your system.
