If you keep up with my reviews, you know I think very highly of the Vinnie Rossi Brama Integrated Amplifier as well as the Rockport Atria II Loudspeakers.
As is the case with most well-engineered gear, the same level of quality runs through the Brama separates and every pair of Rockports I’ve heard including the new Lynx which were in play here.
This system in this relatively small room still sang out with beauty, full range force, and delicacy without boom or bloat or edge. A highly refined silky smooth powerhouse. The Lynx pack a waveguide mounted 1″ beryllium dome tweeter, 6″ carbon fiber sandwich composite midrange, and a 10″ carbon fiber sandwich composite woofer into an all-new DAMSTIF3™ enclosure which is formed from a single, massive aluminum casting offering a frequency response of 23 Hz – 30 KHz (-3dB) according to Rockport.
This system hit my hifi wish list hard and I kinda jokingly asked if I could take the entire thing home. Just kinda.
