High End Munich 2015 – The Room

We were lucky to get some shots of the room yesterday before we opened otherwise it’d have been impossible. There has been a constant crowd hindering the view 🙂 Leif is playing a crazy mix of tunes, everything from Rock with Jimi Hendrix , Jazz with Hiromi and Beethoven with Lang Lang to Electronica with James Blake and Blues with Junior Wells. It all sounds great!

The system

Here is the main system – Four MSB M203 Mono blocks between the pair of Coltrane 3

High End Show 2015 in Stockholm

We’re really happy that Coltrane Supreme 2 was chosen to feature in the main advertising of HEM, the great HiFi Show this weekend in Stockholm. It’s all over the place.

We will have a big room where we present Coltrane Supreme 2 with Analog Domain amplifiers, MSB Select DAC, Jorma Design Statement cables as well as a turntable from Rui Borges and more.

On every hour we will have a presentation for about 45 minutes where we play music and talk about our flagship model Coltrane Supreme 2.

We really look forward to A few of the presentations that will be turned into proper vinyl sessions when Rui Borges and Marc Gomez of SAT take over.

Also, Frank Vermeylen from MSB will visit us to talk about the fantastic MSB electronics that goes so well with our models.

You really should try and make it to this show as we can promise you a fully loaded weekend with great sounds in the middle of beautiful Stockholm.
