Jaap Veenstra ifra Alpha-Audio oppsumerer det meget bra og "spot on"
Pass sound!
What immediately stands out is the incredibly fine and clean midrange. It is so smooth, tactile and beautifully layered…. we don’t hear this very often at this level. It is truly high-end… Particularly impressive. Especially in an integrated model where there are challenges to overcome.
Both on the TAD and the Aretai Contra 100S we hear this beauty / quality, where the Aretai accentuates it even more, because this speaker focuses on openness, rhythm and looseness. The TAD is a bit rounder and more calmly tuned.
Rhythm
We played all kinds of music on the system. And time after time, the super tight and throbbing timing stands out. Songs with numerous layers the Bladelius puts down flawlessly, with the rhythm and tight timing ensuring that the whole thing flows through the speakers without any stress or effort.
This all seems very easy to those who don’t know any better. Seasoned enthusiasts know that many systems struggle with this. Some systems make it too round and sloppy, others too tight and analytical. The Bladelius is truly spot on.
Ikke ofte man hører en integrert forsterker med så sort bakgrunn. Ikke minst i denne prisklassen! Mye av dette skyldes at Ask er oppbygget med helt separert forforsterker og effektforsterker, DAC/Streamer moduler! Ingen snarveier.
Sjekk prisene utenfor Norge.
Må også opplyse at det vil innen kort tid komme en prisoppgang!
For dere som bor i kjøreavstand. Kan jeg tilby utlån av Ask i helger. Koster ingen ting
