“Hearing a polished chorus and orchestra left me wanting to shift into more aggressive mode. I pulled out “Du Hast,” from Rammstein’s Live Aus Berlin (16/44.1 AIFF, Slash/Mercury). For a live performance, ”

“The mids for the most part handle male and female vocals well, there is a little warming from the lows but nothing overwhelming, but these also seems to be a peak in the upper mids that accentuates the sshh, it is not ear piercing sibilance but it sounds a little odd. The mids do retain good detail sounding quite balanced and clean, and you can easily distinguish between the different sounds in the mids. ”

“The IsoAcoustics website includes a helpful tool: You plug in the model name of your speakers and it tells you which of their stands will work best. My speakers are Focal’s Solo6 Be model. I entered their name, and IsoAcoustics’ search engine provided the Focal’s dimensions and weight and recommended the ISO-L8R200 stand used in its normal, vertical orientation. The ISO-L8R200 is a basic black stand — I really wanted to try the new and very swoopy Aperta stands, made of aluminum. But I decided to take IsoAcoustics’ advice.”

“have been very happily surprised by the ELAC FS77 loudspeakers. They are an attractive loudspeaker that delivers a bigger sound than one would expect from a compact floor standing model of this size.

“There were really no major changes until around 300 hours of playing music through the system. Sonically, the system has continued to improve with further playing time, the minor timing accents have finally been released from their captive bind, the initial harshness and fatigue is gone and finally there is an overall sense of ease. Spatially, instruments and voices are now realistically portrayed in their own very large space, not too forward and with all the subtleties of live music. The more hours clocked up, the better it is sounding. Patience has its rewards.”

” Its contrast is heavy. And its bass, at once slamming and foot-tapping, tends to bottom out when given a job too big. Jobs too big for it include lots of slamming mid and upper bass. ”

“Listening to the beautiful Nuevo-Tango tunes from MA Recordings’ Sera Un Noche high-res offerings, for instance, puts me in that recording space and helps me to envision the spread quite naturally. The spaciousness of Garfinkle’s recording is the stuff of legend, of course, but because spatial cues can be somewhat delicate these are also easily masked by overtly colored components. Contrastingly, the acoustic signature and the general studio-sound of Sufjan Stevens’ album, Seven Swans, is more readily apparent than it has been with other setups I’ve had here. As a bit of a neutral-reference, the EF100 seems well-suited to the task. –
