CES 2012 – Electrocompaniet


Electrocompaniet made a comeback a few years ago – and they have certainly fleshed out their product line.

To my ears their house sound is harmonically rich with good separation, which makes them, for me, quite listenable and often Enjoyable [but beyond typical Enjoyable because they have more separation – the ability to not mush notes together when the music does not call for it than typical Enjoyable systems].

That said they are terribly non-linear and uneven when I hear them at shows, like this one this year – whether do to setup or do to compromises that must be made with a more or less reasonably priced line like this, don’t know.

I thought this dark shot of the equipment rack was cool. YMMV 🙂
