SPENDOR LS 3/5a

 

The Spendor LS3/5a is the Holy Grail for many Hi-Fi enthusiasts, renowned for their simply exceptional midrange reproduction. Every detail of voices and acoustic instruments is rendered with a clarity that leaves you in awe. It's like listening to live music in your own room—an intimate and engaging experience.

These speakers are the joy and bane of audiophiles. Their outstanding sonic precision comes with some obvious limitations: the power handling is limited, making them unsuitable for high volumes. Additionally, their ability to soundproof larger rooms is restricted, making them ideal for smaller spaces or as studio monitors.

Spendor LS3/5a is perfect for those seeking a detailed and refined sonic experience, but they might not be the right choice for those looking for more power or a broader sound for large spaces. If you value purity in the midrange and have a smaller listening environment, these speakers are a must-consider, despite to the age! Stay tuned ;)

DENON DP 80

The Denon DP-80 is a turntable that looks like it came straight out of a mad inventor's workshop. But don't let its vintage appearance fool you; this is a true tank in the world of turntables. With its direct-drive motor and pitch control, it's the kind of device that makes DJs and audio purists drool.

One thing that struck me is the solid design. Despite its sturdiness, it has a gentle touch when it comes to reproducing sound. It's like it's capable of capturing every nuance of your favorite tracks, from the high frequencies to the deep, vibrant bass.

If you love vinyl and want a turntable that is reliable, high-performing, and, why not, a bit vintage chic, the Denon DP-80 is a choice that won't disappoint. Once you start playing vinyl, with a turntable like this, there's no turning back.

Stay tuned!

Thorens TD 124

One of the most desired and famous turntables ever made. 

A properly set up TD-124 can outperform far more expensive current day turntables. 

Proper set up is not easy though and requires some mastery of the technique. 

For those purposes you can ask to my pal Simone from Audiosilente
