Been to Wholesound last night. Listened with the Orangutan paired with Line Magnetic at first then shifted to Audia Flight for a solid state sound character. We played almost all kinds of music we can think of. Everything sounds bigger and with the room being an average sized one and too damped acoustically, still the Orangutan looks like it can use a bigger room to breathe and excel more when playing loud. Playing with the solid state gives it the oomph we were looking for but still not as fast as we would like. In the end, it is really designed as a tube-friendly speaker yet still enjoyable in it's own way with a solid state system. If you are more into vocals, jazz, and the likes then the DeVore Fidelity Orangutan O/96 is definitely a must on your list to hear.

Many thanks to Frank and will visit again soon to listen again this time with a Leben.

Oo ganda ng finish talaga!

Himas nga ako ng himas eh.

Interested with Voxativ but I've yet to talk to someone who has heard it already.
Too bad Frank hasn't heard it yet.

Last night at Architectural Audio

Listened with the Ovator S400 paired with SuperNait and NDX as the source. I really liked the way it sounds. Very fast, detailed and non-fatiguing. It is an all-rounder speaker for me.

Try mo din bro, from wall outlet > AVR > line conditioner > TT. Ganito sequence ko set.
Dati ko house panay click din ng AVR lalo na kung sharing yun wall outlet mo sa mga washing machine at pag meron nag plaplantsa ng damit kasi effect din ata ng on-off sequence ng washing machine.
O baka dapat dedicated circuit at breaker yan TT mo
