Lotus Hifi writes: “We finish 2023 on a high note with some of the very best equipment money can buy, and simultaneously we elicit a bold hint about the territory we might spend more time in in the near future. Just as sound quality will never go backwards, High End audio can only ever go higher.
Painstakingly assembled at chez Lotus for the festive period is a no-holds-barred £700,000+ state of the art digital system comprising Wadax Atlantis Reference DAC and Streamer, Thrax Libra statement 300B preamplifier, Tidal Ferios mono amps and Rockport Orion loudspeakers fed by Hemingway cables and Tara Labs / Shunyata mains.
What does a three quarters of a million pounds sound like ? Well it’s not a simple thing to summarise. Whilst all the typical sonic metrics are eye-wateringly impressive and likely supercede anything you have heard until now – especially with regard to the digital source – this is a setup that possibly impresses even more for its out and out naturalness and sense of rightness and ease as opposed to any one specific hifi metric.”
