We are honored to announce that we now carry Kharma speakers and electronics

As most people who hang out hereabouts know, we have liked the Kharma approach to making music for many years now. So it is probably not much of a surprise to many of you that we are pleased as punch to be able to ‘put our money where our ears are’ so to speak.

Kharma Ceramique CE 3.1c speaker
The Kharma Ceramique CE 3.1c speaker at FSI 2006. Very nice sound, exactly as one would expect a smaller version of the Kharma 3.2 to sound like.

We should be getting in the Mini-Exquisites in a few weeks. After what they sounded like at CES, we can’t wait!

Our Subscription-based Newsletter

We finally got around to adding an email-powered Audio Federation newsletter.

This newletter will have news like advance information on steals and deals before they are made public and other choice audiophile-grade tidbits. Some parts of the newletter will be more commerce oriented than this blog, which I think is more hobby oriented.

The newletter subscription page is Here.

And yes, I am supposed to be getting ready for the plane but Neli is still asleep and I’m not going without her… so might as well get a few things done that need doing. At the very last minute of course, *sheesh*.

Updating the Look and Feel of our Price Lists

Not sure how many people realize it, but we are one of the few dealers who put the prices of everything up on our website (whenever our supplier permits it). I know I always like to know the price of something BEFORE I call about what I think is a $500 thing only to learn it is a $5000 thing and am going to have to save up a few months to get it.

We still have the monolithic price list, and it will be here for a little while still.

But we have added another price list section, with one web page per product line, with little thumbnail pictures (so far, only Edge, Audio Aero, HRS and Marten have pictures) for each product and links to other parts of our site where there is more information. This will be the lower bandwith approach of the three views we are building:

* The old ‘product page’ for each product line accessible from the Products page and now the Site Map

* The new glossy Catalog pages (under development)

* The Price List pages (still being flessed out)

We hope these various views that each celebrate the excellence of the prouduct lines we carry in a different way will help people enjoy the site even more than before.
