Krell, Meridian & Vivid Audio

KRELL EVOLUTION SERIES PRE & POWER AMPLIFIER POWERING THE VIVID AUDIO K-1 SPEAKERS. This was one of the better set ups @ HK Audio Show.  Very Clean – Precise.  The Speakers ‘disappeared’ and the sound stage was very wide & the presentation was holographic as well [this was possible only on the 2nd day – after Dr. A. J. van den Hul intervened and ‘set it up’ again].  The cabling was from vdH.  The front end was vdH Turn Table [Euro 25,000/-] & Meridian 808i Reference CD Player [US $’s 15,000/- approx]
