"Anthony Chiarella of Specialty Sound and Vision, who sent a gorgeous pair of Audiovector R 8 Arreté speakers ($77k) for the main listening room, and Audiovector R 3 speakers ($12k) in the smaller room upstairs. Audiovector is a Danish company led by the brilliant father/son team of Ole and Mads Klifoth.
The “Walnut Burl Piano” finish on the R 8 Arreté is incredibly beautiful, while the technology is incredibly complex. As Jim Austin of Stereophile wrote: “The Audiovector R 8 Arreté is more complicated than your typical loudspeaker. But what I heard from the R 8s was anything but complicated: It was pure and coherent and easily grasped…. The spatial presentation was quite special, especially the perception of depth. The R 8 Arreté managed this while remaining articulate and rendering concrete, precise images…. There's never a sensation of pent-up energy with these speakers. The R 8 Arretés release their music into the air in a way that seems effortless—and free.”
Mat will supply a VPI HW-40 Black turntable and Audio Research electronics with Nordost cables, and Anthony might surprise us with some additional cool stuff. Want more? There will be vinyl for sale in the middle room at very reasonable prices. Food? Of course, which is why you need to RSVP! Please reply to this email if you’re planning to come. Remember: This meeting is at the dojo, not the VPI Listening House."
