Famous mastering engineer Bernie Grundman was supposed to bring a master tape of this but at the last minute that was not possible so we listened to the LP.

Superb. Great detail but warm sounding. Lp rumble visible on drivers.

Sounds excellent on my system too.

I have heard these little speakers at other shows. They used to be bookshelves and they added the bottom to get more bass. They point up and use the reflection from ceiling to pull up the image and fill the rooms.

The Wheel by SOHN. https://shz.am/t69180813

Excellent but soundstage a bit low.

Now onto my favorite suite, PranaFidelity.

Steve from Pranafidelity really knows his music. It is always a delight to visit his suite to enjoy music with great fidelity.

I'm disappointed I didn't visit this room. The Pranafidelity speakers has some positive reviews scattered over the internet. How would you describe the sound quality? Is it dynamic? Did it pressurize the room well?

Jenny Again by Tunng. https://shz.am/t44251454

Great track. High separation of every instruments.

It was a small room so yes, it easily filled it with sound. The Yello track was super dynamic for example. I think this is an example of someone (Steven) knowing good sound/music and building speakers to match what he wants to hear. As it turns out, it also matches what I want to hear. His speaker crossovers are programmable and you often find him changing the settings for different music (although he did not do that here).

A 1930 recording and you are worrying about the seating position?!
