Customer showcase – 12 year journey into High End

BUILDING TRUST Every great hi-fi system has stories to tell. Some begin with a single component and grow steadily over the years whilst others grow faster in larger leaps. Others become a reflection of life's journey, moving from one home to another, adapting to changing work circumstances, celebrating new beginnings, marking retirement, or even crossing whole continents. Today in the blogs we are going to showcase one such journey and it’s certainly one of our favourites. Alan first walked through our doors around twelve years ago, and what followed was never about simply adding more boxes to [...]

The new TIDAL Piano Classic

BIG THINGS FROM SMALL CONVERSATIONS We first heard of the concept of a more affordable entry speaker into the world of TIDAL back in June 2025, when we visited the outskirts of Köln in Germany to experience the all-new TIDAL factory.

HEMINGWAY FACTORY VISIT

I am sluggishly wandering through the circuitous elevated alleyways of Itaewon, one of Seoul’s more vibrant and international districts, looking for some decent barbeque. Today though everywhere is closed and there’s very few people in sight; it’s a ghost town. The weather app on my my iPhone tells me its 92% humidity and it feels it too. This is the middle of Korea’s summer and many Seoulites have left for the coast or the islands to escape the high heat. Maybe people just avoid stepping outdoors altogether at this time ? This is certainly a whole different feeling to [...]

JOSEPH PULSAR & PERSPECTIVE

THE LOUDSPEAKER PROBLEM Speakers are arguably the most important part of your system and the most difficult choice you will make. They are by far the hardest item to design and manufacture because of their propensity to introduce a very large amount of colouration and inaccuracy into the sound. Engineering all the colouration and noise out of a transducer, so that it has no inherent character, so that it does not introduce any sound of its own, so that it acts only as a perfectly transparent and almost indetectable three dimensional window back to the music, is nothing [...]
