Description

I am a musician. Listening is work.

Except, I like it. Now how is that for a life.

I listen very much to the same things, as I do when listening to bows (have given mostly up on fiddles, as mine is fantastic, and anything else will be a side move), that is, structure, body, fluidity, grain etc. YOu can invent everyday a new aspect of listening. But it would not mean very much writing it down here, since you would NOT know what i mean - Just like I had to find a commong language with my violinmaker setting up my fiddle.

    • BOW Technologies ZZ-8
    An incredible mix of performance and elegance, upgraded at some stage, and together with my TT Rock elite a real sight..
    • Revox B-760
    warum nur in die ferne schweifen, (..revox liegt so nah)
    • cardas changed gr to clear. for the better.
    sometimes i use Sven Boenickes hand wound alternatives, but the Cardas are very good, as much as I hate to say this, considering money.
    • changed from Merlin VSM MXM to Lahave Avaza. No looking back
    Point source. Great. Great!!
    • David Berning Co ZH-270
    I like this as well, and it goes very well with the merlins..as it does now with the Avaza's..BUT: I've switched to the ZH230 now..Quadrature Z's in the studio show me the peak!!
    • David Berning Co ZOTL pre prototype
    cannot praise it too much: I like it.
    • Lampizator 3.5/gen4
    wonderful.
    • RWAsig 30 changed to Audio Consulting MIPA30
    As good as the red wine was: AC is up there with the very best I know. (David Berning Quadrature Z comes to mind, but with less power..)
    • Pioneer CT-95
    CT-95 was the real deal, and maybe even a dragon killer, except nobody stayed round to watch, what an irony.
    but i still keep it, don't know why..

Thanks to all for looking;
As to berning, I was very lucky to pick up the 230 zotl amp, never heard the qz.. mainly because David told me I would not need them with the merlins. Right now I must admit my system is aiming to get off the grid with an extravagant audio consulting silver rock / MIPA solution . It might do in the need for the berning , but its early days. I prefer to notice differences over weeks not seconds ;-)

Very nice. I think the GNSC Wadia S7i is the best single-box that can connect you with the performance.

Looks good

I have something similar to yours...but do not have berning...how do you like berning with merlins

thanx

Wow!!

I saw your background and am aware of which violin you play...based on your earlier post...wow!!!

I have often wondered how musicians listen to systems...now i have an example. i have never heard Merlins, but i do listen to a reasonable amount of live music. Have you heard the Berning Quadature Z monos? would love to get your opinions if you have. Thanks! and great system!
