Best of Show at Capital Audio Fest: EMM + Goebel

[Lee]

This was a spectacular system!

Perfectly setup by Elliot Goldman, this system offered up textured, natural bass, glorious midrange, deep and wide soundstage, dynamics, and spot-on tonality.

The combination of EMM’s super heavy and muscular amps created absolute magic, especially on rock and blues.

Honestly beginning to feel EMM is possibly the most underrated brand in hifi. They just gripped the behemoth Goebels. The DAC is stellar. Pink Faun certainly helped there as well.

Danny Kaey brought his one of a kind ReVox PR99 playing Arian Jansen’s incredibly lifelike SHI tapes.

An absolute monster of a system!

I agree completely. This room and the Aphrodite DAC/VAC/Gershman were my favorites. I always make a point to spend time in the rooms set up by Elliot at any show. I have NEVER heard a "bad" room from Elliot--ever.

He definitely knows how to create top notch sound.

thank you both. I t was a pleasure working with Amadeus, Lonny , John McGurk and Dave and their entire team. It was wonderful having all these dedicated people to help get the room set up and to make a terrific result. The folks from EMM, Kimber Kable and Luxury Brands Management are just a joy to collaborate with and we got it done IMO in a big way. Thanks again everyone!
