We are incredibly focused on providing great sounding music systems at prices most music enthusiasts would find reasonable. We have partnered with many world-class audio manufacturers to do this.
We have a higher end as well.
Many, perhaps most, of those manufacturers produce products at a higher end of sophistication and cost than we typically offer. This exercise of building cost-little-object pieces is beneficial in many ways: the technology and manufacturing techniques get transferred to more affordable pieces, we get to hear what the state-of-the-art sounds is capable of, and more...
As a result of having these manufacturer relationships we have access to high-end products. At this level we don't curate the entire system as much as we curate, we carefully select the individual pieces that we carry.
We maintain our normal selection criteria that the products must have remarkable sound quality, ease-of-use, and must be reliable. These products, however, will be in a higher price range. The focus is more on attaining ultimate musical resolution. A little more Ferrari than Ford, if you like.
The mix of products we carry in this category is more apt to change.
Currently we have the following products available for evaluation.
Edge W Stereo Power Amplifier
The polite profile of the Edge W Stereo Amplifier gives a hint -- but only a hint of what it is capable of.
It is a well-built, hefty unit. The workmanship and attention to detail sets it apart immediately. When you connect it to speakers and play a dynamic, bass intensive piece of music you can get a sense of just how powerful it is.
Two large toroidal power supplies allow it to develop 100 watts/channel into 8 ohms with ease. The robust design is evidenced by the fact that wattage doubles to 200 watts/channel into 4 ohms.
Even with this impressive power it can still deftly, delicately reproduce high frequencies that give air and dimension to the music.
The Edge W is a strong enough amp to be matched to most any loudspeaker and we encourage you to take an audition.
