Vienna Hi-End 2026

I lost my site map and some has nicked my nice leather tobacco pouch out of my shoulder bag thinking it is a wallet.

So no idea where they might be at the moment:)

Getting a new map is no probs. But a new tobacco pouch is £20. Not amused.

Have some vintage WE courtesy of Silbatone.

IMHO this is a better venue than Munich MOC. Feel much less herded around and for the most part it feels way more spacious even though it isn't bigger.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...f35517b97c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c1e82e10a3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...3a9735b39a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ad8676e823.jpg

Bingo!

Inertia Creeps - Massive Attack.

Very easy going listen across three tracks. Warm, quite good imaging.

But he's swapped to Elysian 4R and it's much brighter and a lot more forward.

Pipe and slippers versus modern higher performance type of sound. Lots more res from the AMT driver in the Elysian.

Both are good. I'd probably prefer the Elysian for the sort of stuff I like.

I do like the looks and build quality of T&A stuff.

Particularly the blue thang. Don't care what it does or is.

The photo didn't get it well but in the flesh it IS nice.

These are seriously good stats.

Better than any modern Quad I have heard.

They have real strong dynamics for a stat and excellent clarity.

I could live with a pair. Add two feet to the height or maybe a bit less and they'd be brilliant in my book.

Just been talking to the designer.

More later.

Now that looks like something I could go for. Any idea how much they would cost?

Whilst good he just told me they are 120K Euros.

Not so good. But the design is cool. True balls in a Quad size speaker.

That's nearly £104,000 - definitely something I can ill afford. Mind you, I was expecting them to be expensive - a lot of work has gone into their design and construction, so with a limited number of potential customers expected, they will be priced so as to recoup the time spent on the design and still make a profit.

I did tell him quite plainly I thought it was too much. Anyway, the bass panels are triple loaded - three diaphragms in each unit. I think he said triple for the mid, double for upper mid and single for the treble. All hand tuned.

Do not quote me on that. But you get the idea. Very rigid frames etc look at the web page.

They don't go as low as my Apogees, but they do have as much balls.

Love it when you discover something you have never heard before and been totally blown away by it. I walked past earlier thinking nothing going on in there.

Big mistake. Huge.

LOL.

Probably not a good side shot, but best I could do in the lighting and awkward position.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...574ee9b264.jpg
