This room easily had the best selection of, magically reproduced, real classical music, in the entire Show. During the restricted entry Thursday when I had a chance to visit, the room was set up for approximately three listeners to be thrilled by the configuration of seats, and components.
A very knowledgable fellow with a British accent (Jay Rein?) played the most amazing selections to show off the splendid quality of the Living Voice $5695 Avator, which I marked as a "Best Buy" in my notes. I noted "powerful, integrated, rich textured, full range bass, and non-fatiguing, extended, textured treble" with the word textured meaning realistically detailed, never smudged, as I am not a professional reviewer, just an audio club hobbyist.
The use of the term "Best Buy" may be hyperbole, as I later became aware of many good speakers, at many price points.
What these speakers did do supremely well was convey the full force, dynamics, and emotion of music, including real sense of bass extension, without any strain.
For example, the thundering fortissimo of Rostropovich on cello, and Richter on Piano, playing a Beethoven Sonata for Cello and Piano was so well conveyed at true concert hall volume, actually as if you were standing next to them, as the microphones surely were.
Those old time audiophile clasical music lovers like myself, were in the presence of great music, beautifully reproduced, reminiscent of long ago hotel room demonstrations by the legendary Richard Shahinian. But, this modern Living Voice Avator sound experience outdid even those past fond memories.
