This system has given me heaven and hell. When I first unpacked my Acapella Violon they did not sound as in my dreams. I must really point out that you have to give your system time to evolve.
After eleven years with the Acapella Violon I bought the Marten Mingus Quintet and a new journey is started.
I've always had a turntable in my system, but this year I went a litle bit further to draw more music out from my system. I've got the vinyl under my skin now, it sounds so wicked. But why stop with one turntable? The Bergmann Magne was irresistible. Then I also needed a new cartridge and my choice was Kuzma Car-40.
I do not know the best way to describe the sound of my system.
It's fast and dynamic with high resolution, they low is controlled, 3D and depth of soundstage are good, maybe I lack a litle with if I should criticize anything. The ion tweater give you a very lifelike presentation.
Since I've changed to Marten Mingus Quintet the soundstage has grown and the bass is improved. The ion sweater is good, but I do not feel that I miss it. I'm still in break in process. It feel like this is going to be really good!
My friends who are not intrested in music and hifi, there first comments was "Now I undesrtand why you are so hooked on good sound reproduction". This is one of the best mark I can get for my system.
Mickep, your system melts like a caramel and the taste gets better and better. I'm happy to read you think about a Soutien, and I believe it can do wonderful things in your system. Did you ever had a look at the Audiovolver II?
This system is a dream. Engaging, musical and powerful, yet with all the hifi parameters on a top level. Not at all only due to the high class equipment, but as much due to an eager strive to configure, optimize and tweak.
How do I know? I've listened to this system on several occasions on Mickep:s journey to this level.
