REVIEWS: "I Heard It Through the Grapevine..."
Stenheim
"The Stenheim Reference Ultime has leap-frogged a host of well-established competitors to jostle for position right at the head of my list. It is quite capable of shocking, surprising, beguiling or just plain seducing ."
“The real magic of this speaker is in the focusing, layering and vocal presentation. We can say that this monitor excels perfectly in those areas. Voices are unprecedentedly realistic and stable between the speakers and possess a frightening realism.”
Montreal Audio Fest
“The best disappearing act by speakers I heard at this year's show was pulled off by Swiss manufacturer Stenheim's Alumine Two SE ...Wolf Audio's Alpha 3 server & cabling from Bis Audio.”
“There was an effortless delicacy, openness, & scale to the presentation of this system that made music seem to exist on another plane, distinct from that occupied by the system or the speakers.
Had I not had a report to finish, I would have stayed much longer.”
DALI Katch

"Well-engineered, beautifully finished and wonderfully executed; the Tru-Lift not only looks the part but makes good on its promise.
It may only have one job to do,
Audience
We are so excited to announce that the Audience SX Series of cables have won The Absolute Sound's product of year award. This award adds to long list of accolades and very positive reviews Audience has received over the last decade.
The Absolute Sound had this to say:
"...Audience's latest flagship cables struck a fluid and natural balance of ease, articulation, and immersiveness. It has a ripe midrange weight and sweetness, vivid dynamic contracts, and a profound sensitivity to the finest volume gradations. Ultimately it possesses a brilliance factor that casts light into the deepest corners of the soundstage and restores air and lift to harmonics. A particular strength for Au24 SX cables is the often hard-to-manage blend of the transient, the tactile, and the reverberant. Flexible and easy to handle, too. In a word, superb."
