Audel in Switzerland

Audel in Switzerland

We have been able to work out a deal with a special brand of loudspeakers: Audel, from Italy. They are specialized in transmission line loudspeakers and have an amazing workmanship for wood... but this is not the reason, why we have decided to take them on board: the design and the sound were the drivers of this choice.

Hegel Mohican earns the AVTech Media Award

We congratulate with Hegel for the new award as best HiFi Disc player for the Mohican. You can browse the awards here and what follows is the motivation of the award.

THE FACT THAT the Mohican CD player has no digital inputs, SACD playback or the ability to double up as a DAC caused a few raised eyebrows on the disc player’s launch, but sometimes it’s best to just concentrate on doing one thing, and doing it better than anyone else. Using a 32-bit AKMAK4490 converter run in native 16-bit/44.1kHz resolution, there’s no upsampling here – the result is a player that has a relaxed, natural and neutral sound that’s immensely satisfying to spend time with. If the Mohican is ‘The Last...’ CD player you ever buy, you won’t be disappointed...

Es war ein sehr erfolgreicher Tag. Es hatte nicht wahnsinnig viel Leute aber alle hatten irgendwie
ein Interesse.
An den Event kamen Leute die von Christian eingeladen wurden und es gab auch Leute die Christian nicht gekannt hatte.
Die Kommentare zu Blumenhofer, Einstein und natürlich Hegel waren sehr positiv!
Die meisten kannten Blumenhofer nicht, waren aber erstaunt wie gut die Lautsprecher klingen.
Wir planen in Zukunft zwei Events pro Jahr bei Christian zu machen. Einer im Frühling und einer im Herbst.

Im EG führten wir folgendes System laufen:
Quelle: Mac Computer oder CD Transport Gato Audio CDD-1
DAC: Hegel Wandler HD30
Verstärker: Vollverstärker Hegel H160.
Lautsprecher: Blumenhofer Tempesta 17
Kabel: AbsolueCréations
Stromfilter: Cammino Power Harmonizer H 3.1

Phonovorverstärker: Einstein The little big phono
Vollverstärker: Einstein The Tune
