Price Paid:  $5000.00 from Leading Edge Audio M

Summary:
The Note Perfect Ovation is a truly wonderful loud speaker. I have owned a pair for four years and I still sit back every day and marvel at the beautiful music they produce.

The Ovation is at its best with jazz, classical and acoustic music. Even at very low volume, they fill my room with full bodied rich music. They have a very natural tonal quality that really draws you emotionally into the music.

They sound the most satisfying with the grills removed and with each speaker pointed directly at the listener. I also prefer the Ovation' sound without the spikes that are supplied. With the spikes attached everything is tighter, but the sound loses its seductive alluring quality.

The sub woofers attached to the rear of each speaker are critical to the sound and when switched off, the Ovation loses some of its three dimensional presence.

I continue to upgrade other components in my system, but have felt no need whatsoever to even look at any other loud speaker.

Strengths:
Very emotionally satisfying to listen to for long periods of time. Very transparent and wonderful to listen to at low volume, gentle delicate treble response and beautifully realistic mid range. Bass is tight and can be fine tuned by adjusting the subwoofers.


Price: The Ovation is actually made in Melbourne, so it is an excellent buy for Australian music lovers.


Weaknesses:
None

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
