CES 2012 – Acoustic Signature, ASTIN trew, Bluminhofer, Grandinote
This room featured Blumenhofer speakers on ASTIN Trew electronics with the Acoustic Signature ‘Ascona’ turntable as source.
I heard an album here, with the intention of trying to determine the quality level of the Acoustic Signature table. As near as I could tell it was certainly the equal of any table I have heard at a show [excepting the older Walkers. I start from the assumption that most high-end audio turntables have pretty much the same qualities, albeit slightly different flavors, and it is these flavors, along with aesthetics and usability etc. that one uses to determine which table to get. Unlike digital, few tables sound horrific.].
