But as the NA distributor of the French Metronome, I must state the T2-i Sig is a world Class-A transport/DAC in 2 chassis. The even more stunning 2-chassis Kalista transport (in so... | |
| Are reviewers biased towards equipment they own? As the North American distributor of Metronome, I want to weigh in with a few thoughts on this very interesting topic.

| Is There any Truly "High End" Integrated Amp? We are introducing some VERY high-end SET (845) amps from Italy - New Audio Frontiers. The integrated has 2 versions (20 & 25w/ch) including custom, hand-wound silver/copper litz transformers. Extraordinary sound and build quality! Think Ongak... | |
| Is There any Truly "High End" Integrated Amp? The New Audio Frontiers (Italy) 845 SET integrated is very impressive - think "Ongaku" sound. Strong power supply drives speakers quite well. We have added this line as the pricing is more affordable but the performance is really amazing. Certainl... | |

| Tom Waits...anyone? Doncha love the "Weather Report"? Tw is a great songwriter/storyteller but I prefer his earlier work with Bones Howe. "Small Change" is an absolute classic. | |

| Avantgarde Speakers I would like to humbly suggest another horn, the Kochel K300 (6K), 3-way with all horn loading including the bass driver. Art reviewed K300 in Listener and gave them 4.75 stars and stated most neutral horn he has heard. Works great with flea-power... | |
