I've just received reports on the new Clarisys line of panels. Considering their views (mostly from my trusted dealer mates) it seems like custom made orders for the Neodymium version, pushes that high frequency range on a higher level. Hence, some may like it and others may not. This can be...

Excellent write up Sleepysurf, thanks for sharing. Certainly sounds like an outstanding show and well received. We don't get this kind of exposure here, hence some of us have to travel overseas (like Spore for ex) to visit the Adelphi and go bonkers! Or of course private demos through dealers...

Yep, Roger that captain 👍 Our tax is through the roof! And that's why I've stated this many times before, for us to be able to afford highend audio gear, it doesn't take a lot of hard work and being able to afford decent hifi, no chance (used to be though back in the good old days..). Now...

Yes, that's about fairly close. There's a minimum wage per hour that employers / companies have to adhere to. There are strict laws in place, however quite often we do come across the dodgy ones where they always underpay their staff and exploit big time! These are mostly huge companies, very...

Yes, I'm not surprised. Those large Clarisys Auditorium panels... well they're awfully large, and require a huge room with proper set-up. I finally managed to get through one of my former dealer mates in Spore and he's confirmed the pricing. It seems that Clarisys has been established there...

Attn: Rob D BTW, Clarisys has already established itself over there. Sun Coast Audio in Florida and I think one in NYC as well as a few other dealers. So it's certainly making in-roads. I would most definitely head out there for an audition, and even get in touch with Florian and the crew...

Yes Rob, I understand no worries mate. The Neodymium's are superb! These are actually an awe-inspiring experience to audition. I've heard the Alsyvox which widely use them in every model and on the Diptyque but only on their Reference line. That's one of the main reasons Diptyque is able to...

Ok that may be the case. However, that's in USD 37grand which still amounts to over 60grand AUD. Also, this is without Neodymium's. Take the Neodymium version and that cost shoots upto 25% more. The Minuet, which is currently their smallest model, will be in the range of 70 - 80 grand depending...

The pricing of the Clarisys line is slightly off... such that when I was presented an approx range from the proposed distributor, it was much different. 1. Minuet 35grand Euros, which is around 55 to 60 grand USD, that's about 70 - 80grand AUD. 2. The Studio Plus is over 100grand. 3. The...

Correct amey01, without a doubt! And Yes mate, JB definitely has the budget and expansive reach across our nation, I sincerely don't think any other store has this kind of muscle. They're everywhere! Even in cafe's and sidewalks. BTW, those going to Axpona, if any of you get the chance to...

Very true 110%. In fact even less... apparently the Sydney show just went off this last weekend. I've been in touch with a few close distributors who invested heavily in the show with much enthusiasm but it was a complete disaster! Both Friday and Saturday were dead, such that the usual...

G'day maties, finally making the connection! I was looking for my earlier posts referring to Nordost accessories, couldn't quite locate it... so thought I'd start a new one and keep it to all things Nordost. I'm now wondering if it's about making the connection or actually making the right...

Some very good points as mentioned above, and room setup is most important, without a doubt! At the same time, of course there's proper gear selection and setup according to various financial means and in some cases, sky's the limit. Having been in this hobby that's turned into a passion over...

The Diptyque speakers are completely different. These are ribbon panels using double sided magnets and very powerful rare Neodymium's on the ribbon tweeters. If I'm correct, Diptyque uses a full array of these Neodymium's only in their Reference line of panels. Hence, the higher price point goes...

Certainly would be nice to see another version of the Statements. However, replacing the Evo-II's to an Evo III and considering the pricing of the Neoliths, which were around 160grand $AUD, I'm thinking those Evo-III's would be well over 200grand easy. Not sure if this category is considered...

Ah, the Clarisys speakers. Those are a real mystery! There are 4 of us over here who were very keen to give these a go... but to no avail. (2 of us own CLX's, 1 has Apogee Diva's fully refurbed by Graz and 1 had the Maggie 30.7's, sold off and now uses triple stacked Klipsch horns). I managed...

Well said L mate! That's a fair point. Cheers, RJ Oh! And do enjoy those finest tunes Woof!

The very last pair of CLX Art's sold Down Unda (Aus) for 50grand $AUD. That's an awful lot of spend for a speaker system. That very same pair went through two different owners and now is sitting in one of the owner's lounges to be sold again. Reason for selling, the chap ran out of funds for...

G'day maties, greetings from down unda. Ah... the CLX's, oh yeah nothing quite like them. I've posted a few notes in the Intro Tab for those who've read through and seen the pics of my rig will know the big WOOF. With reference to Nuri58's post, I may add: Started out with Quad ESL's using...

There's a new version coming out or at least I think it's already out, just a delay to reach Down Unda. It's very similar to the 032, also includes a DAC plus phonostage. Within similar price range, for all those features in one chassis, definitely a top notch integrated to have if thinking of...
