The 2021 LOTUS DEMO ROOM

January 1st 2021. A new year, a whole new era for Lotus. As part of our 10 year anniversary, I am very excited to formally launch our brand new bespoke demonstration room. It has been a long wait and an awful lot of work and there are still a few finishing touches to finalise but right at the turn of the year, we are now fully operational and ready to invite customers for in-store demos. Building works began in September 2020 with a 2 month project that saw the original demo room extended out to [...]

Lotus 10th Anniversary – LOTUS and ROCKPORT

Finding a third Loudspeaker to retail alongside Tidal Audio and Avalon Acoustics is no easy feat. In fact, so difficult is the task of designing a truly linear, neutral and natural transducer that I had almost given up on the idea, until that is, I opened up dialogue with Rockport Technologies early in 2020 at the start of the pandemic. As a longstanding admirer I approached them uninvited and as it happened my timing couldn’t have been better because they had been recently pondering on perhaps taking a fresh look at their position in the UK marketplace and our [...]

REVIEWS for the VIMBERG AMEA

I've not really written too much about the Vimberg Amea but that wasn't really out of choice. Undercover of the pandemic in 2020 this wonderful standmount from the Tidal factory has been making some very serious impressions with Lotus customers. Like the Mino it is supremely natural and linear and just sounds so right. It's a huge sound as well, don't think you are limiting any single parameter because you are choosing a standmount. I wanted to present few new of glowing reviews, they tell you about the product better than I could. At almost the same price as [...]

BRINKMANN BONANZA

The famed Brinkmann "Hewn from Granite" build quality (or perhaps more literally 'Sat on Granite") is mirrored very convincingly in the company's stability, commercial image and general trustworthiness. Some hifi brands are side curiosities or second or third businesses. Some brands are pure moneyspinning ventures, lots of carbon fibre and gold but a veritable dogs dinner when you take off the lid. And a few brands are run by fairly impossible people; personalities or politics that have evolved to a point where you simply could not even begin to attempt to run a reputable shop around such a product. [...]

Tara Labs releases USB line

As many of you will know the USB cable makes an enormous difference. We put it just behind the speaker cables in terms of how much effect it has for many digital systems. So I am very excited to say that Tara Labs have finally completed their product range in this arena. Demos to start right away and I fully expect both the Master Evo and the Grand Master to set new performance benchmarks of the like not experienced before here in my demo room. "Ever since USB cable technology entered the high-end audio marketplace, TARA Labs design [...]

The Tidal PRISMA forces a new Award system !

Parttimeaudiophile were so bowled over by the Tidal PRISMA preamp that it forced them to revise their Awards system !   "The team talked about what to do with a product like the TIDAL Audio Prisma. In fact, it was so good, it exposed a rather large hole in our award system. .. occasionally, we get a product in for review that not only amazes, it redefines for the review team what greatness means. What terms like “statement” and “reference” mean. Experiences like this reset the expectations for what is possible. These are, we believe, aspirational-level products. They’re likely [...]
