"...the Kronzilla SX stereo amp ($23,000) was spotted doing its thing in the Brodmann Acoustics room. Any close encounter with KR Audio’s Kronzilla is worth writing home about, that KR 1610 power triode “on steroids” being quite a sight. The other manufacturer introduced noteworthy SET amplifiers: The Voxativ 845 monoblock amplifier ($17,500) is a flagship product rated at 18 watts into 4, 8, and 16-ohm loads..."

We arrived safe, but not without incidents, in Denver at this years Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. Room Nr.1 is set-up and ready for visitors.
Come by room 9022 and listen to a great Voxativ system. We put the following system together: Voxativ 9.87 system speakers, Voxativ 845 single ended mono blocks, Voxativ PA-01 tube preamp with MC phono, Voxativ signal and speaker cables, totaldac DAC & music server, dps turntable with ViV Lab tonearm and Shun Mook reference 2 cartridge.

The MB-6 is the Scansonic flagship speaker. The design is centered around the ultra light moving mass sealed ribbon tweeter, that has unique speed, resolution and dynamic transient capability. This makes for a very transparent and highly detailed reproduction of the finest details in the program material. The tweeter is crossed over to dynamic driver array at 3 KHz.
The MB-6 boasts a powerful lineup of 6, 4,5” carbon coned dynamic drivers, arranged in a power sharing line array. The inner pair of the driver covers the midrange up to where the tweeter takes over and as you move out from the center the driver cowers more and more of the lower registries. In the deepest bass the line array boast a total membrane area larger than a 12” driver, but still with the speed and agility of the smaller drivers. This makes the MB-6 have outstanding capabilities even in the deepest bass. The MB-6 is an incredible music performer with an impact an authority the will leave you breathless. Delivery is expected November 15th.

Greene wrote (THE Show Newport 2015): "While I was working on speakers at moderate prices ($20k), or what passes for moderate today, I looked into a few of the pricier items just out of interest. I was struck by the piano sound from the Langerton Configuration 217. This speaker allows adjustment of the positional relationship between the mid/bass driver and the tweeter to get phase/time exactly right for a given listening position. Whatever for this reason or not, this speaker sounded remarkably like a real piano: at a price of - around $31k for a pair..."
Mr. Greene obviously got the price wrong - $15,450 is not for one speaker only, but for the pair C217!! CLICK HERE for more info.
We're glad to announce another award for the ViV Lab Rigid Float tonearm - the 5 Star Award of The Ear magazine.
Jason Kennedy concluded:
"...the Rigid Float is a rather unconventional arm and one that ignores traditional approaches to cartridge alignment, but like another idiosyncratic design, the Well Tempered, it produces superb results. It’s one of those analogue audio products that makes you realise that the conventions followed by the majority are not necessarily the only options. There is clearly room for thinking outside the box and the Viv Labs engineers are to be applauded for their inventiveness..."
