German Physiks - A huge "wow"


I just wanted to share with my fellow audiophiles my adoration for a pair of German Physik Carbon mkIV I recently purchased. I am not a dealer or distributor, just a consumer/audiophile.

I have owned many of the finest speakers we are all aware of, and most have been excellent.

What I am hearing from the German Physiks is a cohesiveness/continuousness that I have never heard from any other loudspeaker. Imaging is excellent but not "razor sharp"..just natural like a live performance.
As if you painted a soundstage from speaker to speaker with a single stroke of your brush.

Detail and transparency are included, without the slightest
hint of etchiness or fatige; Image stability with a large "sweetspot". I just received them on Saturday and my significant other had to pry me away for meals...I best be careful!

These speakers and this line are too fine to be ignored. However, they are expensive, especially with our terribly weak dollar...I feel fortunate that I was able to make the purchase.

I would urge all to have a listen if possible, even if out of your price range. After 23 years as an audiophile, I didn't believe I could be totally surprised and bowled over by the presentation of any new loudspeaker....I was wrong.

Good listening to all and stay well!

One of them Looks like the most expensive egg timer.Have the egg buy the farm.

Its nice to see a company catering for the common man.
I'll get my order In.lol
As Audiogon is a high end site, I just wonder how many goners could afford to actually buy a pair? 1-3%?

I hope they are at the 2008 Denver show.

Thank you poster for sharing.
Gentlemen:

I believe The German Physik line now sells from about $30k -over 200k.
FYI The Carbon mkIV retails (at current exchange rate) at around 50k. It is the DDD omnidirectional driver that provides the magic, available in all models, the basic model the HRS 120. Still very expensive..but very special!
Check out the website which has been recently updated for all models. Just google German Physik.
Even the 30k one would still have to be (for me) be very special, and the big one would have to have a sound 'to die for', actually It wouldn't matter how It sounded because It will never adorn my listening room,lol
They are on my list of 'must listen to' at the forth coming Denver show, assuming they will be there.
