Norma REVO DS-1

The Norma REVO DS-1 digital source is known for its technical content and for its noticeable modern versatility, obviously combined with the outstanding sound quality of the NORMA tradition. In addition to a CD player section that represents the evolution of the REVO CDP-1R, the Norma REVO DS-1 source offers a complete set of digital inputs. There’s both a full bandwidth USB input (192.0 KHz) as well as 4 x SPDIF inputs, coaxial, optical and XLR. Therefore, all the features you expect in an advanced digital source are available within a single chassis and they are able to meet even the most demanding user’s needs with no limitations, both in terms of versatility as well as of listening quality. Made in Italy to discerning standards, we are offering 2 units at a significant discount due to the fact that we are over-stocked.

AG Lifter Cable Lifters

The AG Lifter Cable Lifter is a high-performance isolation device that you place on the floor under your speaker cables. By isolating them from the mechanical resonance that in inherent in your floors, the speaker cables are able to perform at their optimum performance. This can be easily demonstrated by switching these devices in and out of your system. When they are installed, the sound becomes more focussed, less smeared, clearer and a little more relaxed. We ordered many of these prior to the Covid lockdowns and now we would like to offer them at a crazy price to our clients as a simple, cost-effective upgrade. Prices below are for one device (each). Enjoy!

Norma IPA-140-P

The Norma REVO IPA-140 integrated amplifier represents a definitive choice for amplification. It’s a 140W per channel, fully dual mono integrated amplifier, using a sextet of MOSFETs on each side, giving the amplifier a potential burst power of 1.5kW. The amp is essentially two mono blocks sharing a common front panel, sitting in a non-magnetic, solid aluminium chassis. Norma has gone with a high-bandwidth design (>2MHz) and has built it to last with elements like sealed and very long-lasting gold/palladium relays for source switching. This version is the ‘P’ which means that it has a built in Phono Stage MM/MC functionality (dual mono). It also has an optional USB digital input, facilitating a direct connection from a transport or streaming device. Transparency, timbral neutrality, transient attack, great dynamics yet having the ability of reproducing even the smallest nuances of the musical signal, both at high and low volumes. These characteristics express a lot more than its deliberately compact dimensions would lead you to expect. Made in Cremona, Italy to discerning standards, this ‘giant-killer’ of an amplifier is available at a significant discount due to the fact that we are over-stocked.

Larsen 8.2 in Cherry Finish

Larsen speakers are designed to use the surfaces of the listening room & the sound reflections they create to their advantage and thereby enrich the listening experience. Sound from boundary surfaces is a part of the recording and listening process and that it adds timbre and fullness to the instruments and voices of the musicians. This Ortho-Acoustic design was pioneered by Stig Carlsson with his Sonab speakers and later refined by John Larsen. Larsen speakers are designed to stand flush against the wall, using the wall to create a deep and full bass from a relatively small cabinet. This placement, combined with the unique positioning and angle of the drivers, flanked by absorption material, virtually eliminates the wall behind the speakers, thus eliminating early sound reflections from interfering with the initial direct sound from the speaker. Winners of many awards, these speakers are crazy value even at their asking price, let alone this one-off discounted price.

Lenehan Audio ML2 Anniversary

Lenehan Audio is one of Australia’s most respected speaker manufacturers, mainly due the wisdom and experience of designer Mike Lenehan. This pair are only 6 months old and come with stands.

It has a 1 inch chambered textile dome tweeter and a 6.5 inch Nomex driver in a composite HDF laminated to 4mm sprung steel plate cabinet. It has a modern luxurious aesthetic (soft grey) and compliments most living spaces & listening rooms. Lenehan speakers are considered to be great value for money at their retail price, let alone at this pricing level they are an absolute bargain. Enjoy!

EnKlein Amphora RCA-RCA 1.5m Phono Cable

EnKlein is a boutique American high-end audiophile cable manufacturer that enjoys a strong reputation due to the high performance of its products. The Amphora is the company’s first phono cable and is constructed of pure fine silver conductors with silver WBT RCA ends and Rhodium plated DIN termination. It incorporates a thin film shield and a sacrificial ground made of 90.999% oxygen free copper. This configuration creates a passive damper for extremely low capacitance and reactance, targeting the preservation of signals from a broad range of cartridges including extremely low output cartridges. The Amphora exhibits a low noise floor revealing intimate full range detail, concise decay, controlled lower octaves, pace, dynamics and natural tonality. This cable is in very good condition. It took a very expensive Stage III Concepts Analord cable to better the sound so it represents amazing value at this price. It is missing a 3.5mm plug grounding wire connection (refer to photos).

Accustic Arts Player-I

Made by the perennial German boutique high-end manufacturer Accustic Arts, the Player I oozes quality and sophistication. As well as being an excellent CD player, the PLAYER I can also be used as an external DA converter equipped with a coaxial and asynchronous USB input for HD audio and DSD. These inputs allow the connection, for example, of a laptop, MAC or computer, or any other digital source device. The heart of the PLAYER I is a high-end traction-feed drive which is exclusively designed for audio applications. The drive has a high quality and resonance-optimized CD tray in aluminium and is guided by two metal bars. The excellent sounding DA converter used in the PLAYER I works according to the well-established 32/384 up-sampling principle. Its classic, pleasing design and ingenious technology makes the PLAYER I a great upgrade DAC for anyone looking to upgrade their sound quality.

Spiral Groove Strange Attractors

Constructed with a combination of aluminium and graphite, the carefully shaped Spiral Groove Strange Attractor addresses wide band energy that adversely affects audio components. Through high-speed transfer, refraction, dissipation, and sequential boundary reflection, the Strange Attractors put energy into a cycle of decreasing amplitude and rotating phrase, which significantly reduces its effect on the playback of an audio system. Placed under a component, the sonic effect of the Spiral Groove Strange Attractors is a startling reduction in the noise floor, which accrues to greater dynamics, a larger and better-defined soundstage, and a musical ease to the performance that is both relaxing and exciting. More clarity, focus, less distortion & noise. This pack of 4 is the ¼”-20 version and is virtually brand new and is selling because too many were ordered by the owner.
