Norddeutsche HiFi Tage 2013

What to tell about the Norddeutsche HiFi Tage.
It is one of the most appealing consumer HiFi shows in Germany and like in the last 4 years we had our chance to expose there.
This time it was not intended to be minimalistic it was a really huge system and played really good music.
The groove was there, the energy pushed us to the wall and the wish to increase the volume was there, but we had to spare the ears of our visitors.
The visitors came… and forgot to leave the room. At certain moments it was that full that we were not able to move.

We had a Genuin(e) good sound. This was the setup:

-
Einstein Vorstufe - The Tube
- Einstein Endstufe - The Poweramp
- Einstein CD Player - The Source
- Einstein Phono Preamplifier - The Turntable's Choice
- Pluto Audio Plattenspieler
- Van den Hul Tonabnehmer
- Cammino H 3.1 Power Harmonizer
- Klangstube Phono Rack

- Blumenhofer Acoustics Lautsprecher - Genuin FS 2

And if You are curious to see some pictures, they are
here in our Gallery.
Thank You and thank the whole Bramsfeld team for the wonderful organization.
Here the link to the HiFi Tage pages.
See You in 2014!

Review of the big Fun 17 on Stereoplay 06/2012 online available

Straight before the Munich High End 2012 Wolfram Eifert tested our big Fun 17.
That article is a really good description of what our loudspeaker is able to do.

By chance I found the online version of the article some minutes ago. Here You can read it.
That article was a comparison between 3 horn loudspeaker following 3 different operating principles. Here You can find the whole comparison.

Presentation in the Gaswerk 2012 exposition in Augsburg

Sometimes friends ask us to support Art exhibitions and this time has been one of those.
Music joined sculpture, paintings and integrated itself in the Gaswerk in Augsburg, an monument to industry and industrialization, how production can become art itself.

Analog Audio Forum in Krefeld 2012

2012_11_03-Analog-Audio-Forum-logo

Even this year we participated to the analog Audio Forum in Krefeld.
As difference from the usual shows, this time we decided to have a bigger room to play bigger loudspeakers, and we played the Gioia.

Like last year, the room of the organizer used a Gran Gioia for its demonstration and it has been very well accepted.

In our room the setup consistsed of:

- Rui Borges - Uno Turntable
- Einstein Audio Components - The Turntable's choice Phono Preamplifier
- Einstein Audio Components - The Tube Preamplifier
- Einstein Audio Components - The Light in the Dark Stereo Power Amplifier
- Blumenhofer Acoustics - Gioia Loudspeakers
- Cammino HP - complete power supply and cabling including its extraordinary Power Harmonizer

On the first day we had a straight setup, it played, but it was not possible to turn up the volume. The people were already satisfied, but we did not. We knew what was reachable with that setup and we reached maximum 60% of that. Not satisfactory. Not at all for us.
In the night from Saturday to Sunday, after a good dinner in a nearby restaurant, we spent half of the night to start from scratch. What a wonder, on the second day, music was playing, finally music was in the room and cheered our ears. Thanks to Claudio and Marco for the big effort.
Thanks to Hanna as well for taking care about the customers and to Jürgen from HiFi Studio Fuchs for the LPs.

And most of all thank You to the whole AAA Team for the great organization of the event and the great support during the days of the show!!! See You again next year!

Rewiev of the Fun 17 on Stereoplay

In the Stereoplay 11/2012 there is a very enthusiastic review of our Fun 17.
Enjoy Your reading!!

We introduce the Fun 17

After the Fun 13 and the Fun 10, we extended the quarter wave length horn principle to our 17cm Peek woofer and the result is the Fun 17.
It has already been positively tested by Stereoplay in this (now) online available contribution of Holger Bierman.

It will be available for sale starting December 2012. Have Fun!

2012_10_06-Fun-17

We introduce the Gioia

The Gioia is a natural follow up of our Gran Gioia borne on the same basis and sharing the same technologies in a more compact design.
Astonishing for live feeling, impact and musicality, its first public appearance has been at the Veldoven X-Fi show in 2012.
It will be available for sale starting February 2013.

X-Fi Veldhoven HiFi show 2012

2012_09_29-X-Fi


On the 29th and 30ies of Sepember we have participated to the X-Fi audio Show in Veldhoven. What to say?

Our best compliments to Marco of Music2, for the fantastic organization, and the wonderful setup. Take Your time to take a look at the pictures, they present our products in an astonishing good way.

The setup:
- Blumenhofer Acoustics Gioia, a new borne in the Blumenhofer family. Soon there will be more information in the web page
- Octave HP 500SE as preamplifier
- Octave MRE V220 mono amps with Super Black Box
- Octave Phono Modul
- Acoustics Signature Thunder turntable
- SME V Tonearm
- Van den Hul Canari phono cartridge, specially made for Music2
- Cammino-HP Power Harmonizer
- complete Cammino-HP cabling
- Acoustics measures from NoiseBusters

We knew it would have played really good, but it was astonishing, it overwhelmed our expectations. Much much more.
The impression was to listen for a real orchestra, complete with all its elements and power. You can not believe what I mean if You do not hear it Yourself.
Take a look at the pictures, it is worth it… meanwhile, we will wait for the portrait of the setup, a painting by René Visker of the Ritsart Gallery in Maassluis, The Netherlands
