Ooh, those sound interesting.
“Reference 1 MK4” or “Kensington”?
Will have to look into these… Do they have opposing drivers or only top-side transducers?
Firing up the Google-lator now.
Nice rig!
Can’t quite make out the turntable is it one of the EAT tables? Cart?
Best,

Best I have personally ever heard
About 100 hours in now and I feel the new Sopra 2s are much more fuller yet the bass is smoother. Hard to describe but it sounds cleaner and yet with my Kanta 2s more things would rattle at high volumes so it’s definitely better to me but hard to describe or explain why. The sound stage is a little taller and deeper as well. Overall very pleased.

Are you using the stock spikes or have you installed IsoAcoustics Gaia?
I have the ISO GAIA footers.

That amount of extreme toe-in would probably make for good mono listening.

In the sweet spot it’s like wearing headphones, almost. The speakers use Jordan full-range drivers, so there’s no crossover, the sound is very panel-like.

I agree that seems rather extreme to me as well. I would imagine at that seating distance there’s a ton of wave cancellation occurring. But if it works you can’t knock it.

Haven’t used this old gem in a while. 44 years old and still works and looks like new when my father purchased it back in 1979.

Built like a tank! I have an OG Technics in my office, still holds speed and works as it did on its first day.

Yes sir! Likewise!
Here is my system as I am about finished downsizing. Not pictured are my RAAL Requisite earfield speakers which I use for most of my listening. They are absolutely superb with the REL Carbon Limited sub. The RAAL’s are like having a mini Maggie hung from your head and beside each ear. They do not touch my ears though since I cannot tolerate headphones that make my ears get hot.
