Lucy and Harry, from the Bespoke Audio Company, paid us a visit at Blumenhofer: after a 5 years old appointment that has been postponed and renewed several times, finally we managed to meet. For this, we have to thank the perseverance of Harry, more than anything else.
We had chance to listen to their pearl. A passive preamplifier.

From the start the sound was convincing, dynamic, fast, clear, with the right presence on the whole frequency spectrum. It bears the musicality we aim to and we pursue in each of our developments. We tried it with several power amps and it matched them correctly.
Convincing. It is a product we will think about.
Then we have learnt that Lucy is personally winding the transformers, we then have learnt how far it is possible to tailor it to the needs of the customers and that it can be made to match the look of our loudspeakers. Lots of nice surprises and add ons for the demanding and knowledgable customer.
In the end, they opened up the little box for us: wow, very nice design, very nice construction, very simple but efficient cabling inside. Flabbergasting!! Not only for the sound but for the overall workmanship and attention to the single detail.

Lucy and Harry invest a huge amount of work and knowledge in their product. Entirely made in UK! I think that our two companies share a lot of understanding for music: looking forward for working together!!

Of course we had some fun during the day, if You are curious, You can have a look at our gallery, here.

Ulisse Pisoni wrote a review of our Mini on ReMusic.it, here in Italian and here translated in English.

These are some excerpt from the article:

They bare a beauty, a musicality and they are so enjoyable that You will not miss higher priced systems
There is no listening fatigue, the annoying sensation related to hyper-definition and hyper-detail is absent
The Mini of Blumenhofer have the virtue to be enjoyable at high volume even for longer time

Angelo and Francesca of Audio Activity took the Munich High End very seriously. They have been listening all the rooms and have picked the best 5 (which in the end became 6) and the worst 5. Needles to mention that ours was among the best.
Angelo, thank You for the big compliment!! And, my compliments for the straightforwardness: naming the 5 worse as well is something great!!

What a show, what a huge work, what a fantastic crow of people.
I do not have the need to tell again how much bigger it has become year after year: lot of other people already told it and wrote it in lots of papers and sites.

We plaid great music, we had lot of discussions, and other big news will appear day by day on these pages.
Our company has grown a little step further during these days and we are looking forward for the upcoming weeks and months, to see what the future will bring.

Here You can read our preview on the Munich High End,
Here You can read what we did during the dry run. The dry run has been really important and allowed us to reduce the setup time during the show.
Here You can see our picture gallery. Here the picture gallery of Walter Kircher.
…and sometimes in the next few days, I'll write here our story about the setup and the show itself.

For now, a big thank You to the whole team!

Our Taiwanese friend Tony Hu, presented at the SIAV in Shanghai our Tempesta 17

The power amplification comes as well from Taiwan, they are the Arte Forma Audio power amplifier. The system was composed by the Thalia Preamplifier and the Due Volte Power Amplifier

I can imagine Music playing well and lot of people. The SIAV in Shanghai at the Shanghai International Convention Center has a 20 and more years tradition and it is a fix appointment in the Chinese HiFi industry.
I hope sooner or later to be able to go there again myself!

Here to see the few pictures I got from China.
