A History Lesson

Posted Sun Sep 24, 2006, 7:56 PM ET — By Paul Messenger

A fabulous and fascinating exhibition of classic historic hi-fi equipment made a visit to the ballroom of the Hi-Fi News Show a must. The complete history of Lowther-Voigt seemed to be on display, and a Voigt Corner Horn was actually playing music, from a "vintage" (first-generation) CD player via a compact Pye tube amplifier.

Fantastic sound from this horn. The sense of unimpeded flow and ease was apparent as well as the sound and music being dynamically unconstrained (within its [surprisingly large] bandwidth). Good WAF? Maybe. Fit and forget? Definitely. J.
