Spanish ribbon loudspeaker manufacturer, Alsyvox Audio Design, demonstrated its Botticelli model, a 1.77 m tall full range design with a 94dB sensitivity.
The rest of the system consisted of electronics from Omega Audio Concepts, the Stream CD player and the four-chassis DNA dual mono integrated amplifier, all powered by the Nano Power Plant power conditioner.
Dutch loudspeaker manufacturer, AEquo Audio, launched the Stilla at High End 2018. The Stilla brings many of the design concepts of AEquo's highly acclaimed and awarded Ensis to smaller, more familiar form, that's also more affordable.
Here's a list of links to other online show reports from High End 2018 in Munich. These reports provide a wealth of pictures and information from the show. Unless otherwise indicated reports are in English.
High End 2018 was held from 2018-05-11 to 2018-05-13 in Munich. The premier audio show in the world, High End presents the whole range of consumer audio offerings, and is the main event for new product introductions.
This year High End was effectively three shows. The main show, High End 2018 at the MOC, CanJam Munich, which was held just around the corner at the Kohlebunker, and hifideluxe 2018, which was held at the Munich Marriott Hotel a short distance away.
High End 2018 will feature many product introductions. Here are some to look out for:
Aequo Audio will introduce its new Stilla loudspeaker at High End 2018.
A full-range floorstander with two 250W N-core powered 7 inch subwoofers, the Stilla delivers the sound of Aequo's award-winning Ensis in a more affordable package.
High End, held annually in Munich, Germany, is the world's premier audio show. This year's show runs from Thursday 2018-05-10 to Sunday 2018-05-13. It will feature displays, demonstrations, lectures and presentations distributed over 4 large halls of the spacious MOC, and in well over 100 rooms in three of its atria.
Raidho Acoustics demonstrated their D-5.1 and D4.1 loudspeakers and the MB-2.5 from sister company Scansonic HD. Amplification for the demonstrations was provided by the Aavik Acoustics C-300 preamplifier and a pair of M-300 mono power amplifiers. Cabling, grounding and power conditioning for the system came from Ansuz Acoustics.
In its various configurations this is the system that I most enjoyed.
