Listening session: Sonore AC, Netherlands

Incredible the content of these wooden boxes. I've never heard these kind of power amplifier playing this way. Cock and Arnold from Sonore AC explained us the concept and the ideas behind them and it was really astonishing to understand the deepness of the know how involved and the technical solution adopted to pursue the philosophy behind them trough and trough.
It is always good to learn something.

Review of Groove into Bits Vol. 2 from Puresound.be

Onno Kiviet pubblished on his puresound.be webpage the review of Groove into Bits Vol. 2. Here You can read it in Dutch.

We discontinue the Genuin FS 5

Genuin FS 5, the first bookshelf in the Genuin serie, horn for the mid-high and bass reflex woofer.
We originally did not expect a success for this loudspeaker, but sold quite well.
We just decided to discontinue it, because the Tempesta 17 bookshelf delivered the same quality at a much reasonable price

Munich High End 2013

This year we did not participate directly to the Munich High End. But our products were present. On the stand of STS Digital, Fritz de With used a Fun 13 to present Groove into Bits Vol. 2. We had our normal events during the whole week and the beginning of the week after. It was good, and the work was not less than exposing in the Munich High End, but not the same.

Groove into Bits Vol. 2 comes to the market

On the first day of the Munich High End Fritz de With of STS Digital presented us the Groove into Bits CD Vol. 2.
The CD presents good pieces of music. In the first issue there has been an error on the cover that will be corrected in the reissues of the CD. One song, the one of Bob Dylan, due to rights problems, did not manage to get into the final release of the CD, but it is still in our hearts. Maybe we will be able to add it in the next Groove into Bits.

We introduce the Tempesta series

After a longer development time in a cooperation with our new american partner, the Tempesta series has the right to come to the market. It has been a longer effort to get this series of product mature. Aimed at Home cinema, with a stronger attention on music reproduction.
For the time being the whole series consists of:

- 3 main loudspeakers:
Tempesta 20
Tempesta 17
Tempesta 17 Bookshelf
- 3 Centers:
Center 15
Center 17
Center 20
- 3 Subwoofers:
Sub 10"

We are still working on the surround components.

The setup was composed by:
- Blumenhofer Acoustics Gioia

They told me that the acoustics was not the best. But the Ambient has been exceptional.
