Holfi Battriaa better than Levinson No 25 S ??


Wow. Just hooked a Battriaa on my Levinson system. The Holfi seems MUCH more transparent, creating a far wider sound stage. Very articulate. This makes my 25S sound as if a towel has been hung over my Avalon speakers ...

Please comment.

Hi, I just came across this old thread. I have a Holfi Battriaa Signatur Edition my self and like you I must say that it is amazing. The Danish company has unattended to most of the Hifi world created one of the best phono pre's ever. I have tested mine against Tom Evans Micro Groove, Trigon Advance, Trigon Vanguard and orthe phono stages in the same price range. But the Battriaa always played clearly in a league of its own. That is even audible to someone who is not a very trained listener. We are talking huge differences. But I am still a little astonished that the Battriaa is significant better than such a high end product like the ML No. 25. But that makes me think that I made the right choices six years ago when I chose Holfi Battriaa.

Unfortunately Holfi has stopped producing the Battriaa. But I hope they some day will rethink this decision, because it is a fantastic product.

Best regards

Ole
