Now in a revised walnut finish with an improved space and soundstaging. The AE109.2 is a successful upgrade to the previous model. In addition to drive unit revisions there is a very high density MDF used in the cabinetry that has allowed a thirty percent increase in internal volume while the whole speaker is only fifteen per cent larger.

The much anticipated Meze 109 Pro Headphones have arrived at Carlton Audio Visual. I first heard these in May in Munich and knew they'd be extremely popular. The headphone marketplace is missing a HiFi level headphone at the mid $1K mark and these fill those shoes.

They punch above their pricepoint and are detailed, full sounding, big soundstage type headphone. These aren't a plastic headphone that only sell because they're endorsed by some forgettable celebrity.

Meze are a relatively new (10 years old) Romanian manufacturer of headphones making big waves in the industry. They are a group of young professionals passionate about the products they make and the work they do. Having met a whole bunch of them, I get the impression they all could be off making a lot more money working in Germany or Switzerland for big corporates but they prefer to stay in their home country working with their friends and colleagues on great products.

Now on display at Carlton Audio Visual!

Stepping up to a triple layer of carbon for extra damping with even lower resonances. 

But extra to the TA-5000 NEO that isn't seen on the TA-2000, Acoustic SIgnature have built a complete inner tube separated from the outer tube by another layer of dampening.

The bearing design has been stepped up another notch as well. Pre-tensioned and a hybrid design using ceramic and stainless steel balls.

Lastly the internal cabling sees an upgrade over the lower models from copper to pure silver.

More detail better imaging - a quality in manufacturing and design that bears fruit in the musical experience of the listener.

Available in 12" version $13,400 (silver)

Black add $1700 (extra)

Gold add $4300 (extra)

Black and Gold Colours are special order.

We have a pair of RA-6000 and DT-6000 Ex-demo to sell Ex-Demo. 

Power corrupts they say, but with an amplifier there is no substitute for current and wattage when it comes to exercising authority over a recalcitrant loudspeaker load. 

With this new Rotel Diamond series subjugation of the fine motions of the transducer to force absolute compliance to the needs of the music signal is the key to its power.

Unlike the brutal human autocrats of our contemporary experience however, the Rotel offers a deeply benign and truthful empowerment of the listening experience. 

Like all Rotel amplifiers this is destined to stay in your family for a generation or more. The internal componentry is made in house and is of quite exceptional quality with longevity as a prime directive.

"Soundstage Australia" on the Yamaha NS2000 The Manager of Yamaha Audio Japan who runs the design team for the loudspeakers came to visit us at Carlton Audio Visual and I made this little video of him discussing the inception of the Ns2000a. His English is a little broken but was very interesting:

The reference speaker of the Silver 7G range by Monitor Audio. Big and boisterous capable of filling the largest rooms with a full involving sound. For smaller rooms as well, this speaker has bass for days and is a fun, expressive speaker.

Clarity on the 500s are not lost. The metal dome tweeter has been improved with changes to the waveguide surrounding it. The main drivers have also undergone some changes resulting in a tighter, more precise sound.

From the 6th generation to the 6th generation, the finishes on the 500s has been updated seeing more of a natural quality and the addition of a satin white and gloss black as well. We also have easy access to the full colour sweep here in Australia which wasn't the case for the 6th generation.

Monitor Audio are continually updating their speakers and making discernible improvements to the sound and finish of their products.

Their latest refresh sees a new slant on the ever popular Silver range. An updated mid/bass driver and wave guide on the tweeter are the major improvements to the sound. But the apple is not falling far from the tree. For those who have always loved the sound of the silver range, you won't be shocked by drastic changes in the core sound. Simply slight improvements in clarity and presentation.

The same goes for the finish of the cabinets. There are changes to the colours. The walnut is richer and less red. I think it looks more natural. We also see the wide spread availability of the White and Ash (likened to the old natural Oak) finishes in Australia as well as a Gloss Black and an Oak Black finish.

The flagship of the Esseci Design magnetic levitation boards. To increase the isolation on your HiFi equipment can drastically improve the sound and performance of your HiFi. Afterall, much of the design of HiFi is concerned with just that. And expensive and sensitive pieces of HiFi equipment go to extremes to get this right. Most obviously in the Turntable market.

This is a nifty way of getting more isolation into your system for your existing gear. 

And the magnetics and floating board is seriously cool!

Naim is one of the best of English HiFi brands harking from Salisbury where their design and manufacturing facilities are located. They are one of the true high-end electronic brands that make gear like their Statement Amplifiers retailing for a cool $375,000 for a set.

This little CD player is their entry level but for most people this doesn't represent your typical first-time-buyer HiFi component. It's intricately thought out, meticulously engineered, clean and musical. 

The typical comparison is with Rega and Cyrus CD players, both english and both also in our inventory. The Naim is more transparent sounding than a Rega Apollo, finding more detail and space in the music. It's closer in performance to the bigger (and more expensive) Rega Saturn. The Saturn, however, has a richer tonality to it than the Naim. A bit more 'rounded' on the treble. The Cyrus CDi, has a similar sound signature and as a half size unit it offers a convenient footprint. The slot mechanism will never be a perfectly reliable solution for a CD player though and what Naim has done with their tray and resonance reduction is really admirable.

In conclusion, this is a unit to throw into the mix from one of the best manufacturers out there. It may well be the perfect unit for you. Feel free to call us to talk more and have a read of some of its stellar reviews from well trusted HiFi institutions.

Naim products bought from us, a genuine approved Naim dealer, include the full 2 year warranty.
