Your room just so musically dynamic.

Flew in from New Orleans. Great experience. highlights for me: *Vinnie Rossi/Rockport absolutely sublime. Saving for VR integrated. Upscale Audio/Fine Audio. New respect for Fine Audio. The whole Quintessence colaboration, but particularly the Dagostino/Wilson Aavik/Borresen room was fabulous. Made me Want. The Big Magico M9 room was something to witness. Over the top! Disappointment: Audio Note AN-E. Too much Rage Against the Machine music. Brutal. Pure Audio Project. Looking for high sensitivity speakers. These did not have enough body. Granted it was the duet. I’m most interested in the Trio.

@jayctoy i really enjoy the music. When it sounding good it’s the best place on earth. I’m blessed to be working with Infigo because the sound is just remarkable. I get to listen to my system every day at home and I’m in audio heaven. I enjoy this hobby. I’m going to send you cables to demo soon |
I was there for three days, but due to a commercial interest was unable to make a wide survey. At price-no-object I particularly enjoyed the big Magicos, in the middle-market Vinnie Rossi/Rockport, Doshi/Joseph, and Songer field-coils, and at a reasonable price-point Rogue/Maggie and new Klipsh La Scala with designer Roy Delgato in a rare appearance at shows. I wanted to like the Avant Gardes, but couldn’t get past their uncontrolled LF. |
@prof I was at the AXPONA Show all 3 days and spent quite a bit of time in the Joseph Audio/ Doshi/ J Sikora room. Year after year, I feel they put on an excellent exhibit. First off... you couldn't ask for a nicer group of gentlemen. Jeff, Nick, and Robert Sikora are all really great guys, who have a passion for building the absolute best product that they can. They are great to talk with, they are music lovers and are very welcoming. They had the J Sikora Reference table this year - my dream endgame table, along with Doshi tubed electronics and of course Jeff's Pearl Graphene speakers. The whole system has a wonderful synergy. It provided a dynamic, full and immersive sound. Voices sounded fantastic as did instruments. The bass at times could sound a little boomy depending on where you were sitting in the room and depending on how loud they pushed the volume (show room conditions), but when not pushed too loudly, everything gelled really nicely. Always a show favorite of mine! Seeing as you were specifically asking about the Joseph speakers. I think they are beautifully made - simply gorgeous! I love the relatively small footprint they have, and yet the huge, full sound they put out. These speakera will fit very nicely in the average person's home. While not inexpensive, I think think they are a bargin imho, compared to the extremely high priced monstrosities that were at the show. Best wishes, Don |
