The top-of-the-line V-Flex Extreme loudspeaker from Gemme is their Katana, which is one of the most sophisticated little two-ways I've heard in a very long time.

The Signal Collection Admin Rocky Mountain Audio Fest

I've just returned from the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver, Colorado and I've been reflecting on our time spent there. In all, I think it was the best one ever despite the seemingly light attendance. In fact, I'm not sure what to attribute this "bestness" to, save my own overall feeling that everyone had a wonderful time.

The Signal Collection Admin Hi Fi Doesn't Have To Hurt (or be ugly)

In high-end audio. there seems to have been an almost inverse relationship between great sound and great looks - the closer you approach one ideal, the further you move away from the other. Of course we audiophiles have adapted our sensibilities to account for the lack of pulchritude in great sounding gear such that we may have comp… Continue

The Signal Collection Admin Single-Driver Theory

For a very long time now I've been fascinated with single-driver loudspeakers from afar. Having heard countless iterations of rear-loaded horns and Voight pipes, both from the commercial side of our industry to the DIY side, I was always amazed at the immediacy and impact of the sound, but never quite tempted to go down that road myself. There was always some fairly common co… Continue

The Signal Collection Admin XV-Ultra ... The Time has Come

The time has finally come to introduce the XV-Ultra. This cable is actually a derivative trickle-down of what we're going to be doing (for a lot more money) in the TOMBO line, which will be introduced to the world this fall and called TRØN. You might call this new XV-Ultra the "Trøn Lite" in a way, as it incorporates some but not all of that cable's performance-enhancing attributes and RF suppression. We'll soon have a photo of the XV-Ultra to ogle. For now ... just know that it is coming soon,… Continue
