Low level/High resolution 💫

 


It’s all here, much better than the obsolete, abused and overused “High Fidelity”…




My system truest raison d’etre is the following:

Low-Level Reproduction: Unlike many horn-based systems designed for high volumes, Kato's system was optimized for reproducing the finest details at realistic, home-friendly low volumes, allowing subtle nuances such as the musicians' breathing or the touch of their fingers on the instrument to clearly be audible.


Thanking to Hideo Kato-san for the above illuminating definition: I realized, to my surprise - thanks to Quad ESL and  Gotorama 2.0 - that I don’t need high SPL to enjoy my music of choice, but I sure need a breathtaking resolution, silence among notes and awesome detailing, which I get a-plenty.

Everything else is BS and musical illiteracy, as only a natural neutrality allows any music to blossom and be nourishment for the soul and the mind. 

🖖
