“We liked ’em so much, we bought ’em.”
Linear Tube Audio was showing with their very own pair of DeVore Fidelity gibbon Super Nine Floorstanding Speakers ($9990/pair), using their own Ultralinear+ Integrated Amplifier ($7650 pictured up top) and this…
…Pre-production prototype DAC (2023 release $TBD), whose industrial design was a wink and a tribute to the late Don Garber of Fi fame.
Regular readers know that this system has many personal connections. Don Garber was among my favorite people in hifi—his designs for Fi are favorites as well—and his dream-like home in Brooklyn that I had the pleasure to visit many years ago with John DeVore, Stephen Mejias, and Nori Komuro sits snugly among my warmest memories.
So it should come as no surprise that I listened with delight as this lovely system filled my ears and thoughts with goodness of all kinds.
