Beyond the math of music and the science of hearing lies the single fundamental reason why we listen to music: for that emotional charge.
A live performance almost always delivers this emotional high.
However it is all too often that most of us would have heard reproduced music that completely misses the mark. "Technically perfect" sound that is unable to communicate feeling…. is like a violinist who delivers a clinically precise performance that is devoid of " soul ".
This became our quest, and it has been a 12 year journey -- a journey that helped us discover many answers. Such as the importance of the "soundstage" as a substitute to what our eyes contribute at a live concert; or the importance of using wide-band drivers to make
it easier for the ear-mind continuum to imagine that it is hearing something
more than just a recording….
….. and a recording only comes alive if it can communicate emotion…..
