DeVore Fidelity O/bronze + Komuro K300S Stereo Amplifier + spinning 78s = hifi heaven.

I bet you saw this one coming from a mile away.

I first met Tone Imports proprietor Jonathan Halpern long before I started writing about hifi while he was working at NYC dealer In Living Stereo and just beginning to import the exquisite gear from Japan’s Shindo Laboratory.

One of my favorite systems I had the pleasure of living with and reviewing, ever, was comprised of a pair of Rockport Atria II loudspeakers powered by a Soulution 330 integrated amplifier.

I first met and reviewed a product from Vinnie Rossi in 2005 and while I like to think we’ve  both come a long way, Vinnie has more demonstrable proof in his line of BRAMA gear.

Some people know how to get great sound at a hifi show regardless of room gremlins and Jeff Joseph of Joseph Audio is one such hifi show setup pro.

Think BIG.
