Had anyone listened to Ken Fritz's system in person?

https://www.stereophile.com/content/what-price-perfection
Another article on Ken Fritz.

I know there are some contoversy about his relation with family.

But I am really curious how it sounded.

Are there anyone who had listened to Ken Fritz’s system in person?

If so what was your impression?



I am sorry that somebody could not have taken over his whole system including the ranch if it sounded very nice.

Friendly takeover under 1 M$.

 

It may not have been possible.😀

 

If they had wanted more, I would have walked out of it.

@shkong78 you missed it. His son had created a post here on Audiogon in November. I can only imagine what it sounded like.

I am pretty sure that the video I am remembering was by Ken F.  In the video he goes through a bunch of his equipment, its inspiration, creation and performance.  At the end of the video he smiles, and relates how at the end of a recent session playing his system for friends, that his quests make him blush with compliments.  Then he mentions to them that the last few songs were being played over his $800 HSU CCB-8 speakers.  Love that sense of humor.

By the time his son posted  auction, the ranch had been sold.

 

It is meaningless to get his system without the ranch.

Thanks jetter for this interesting humorous  anecdote...

I just read about the Hsu  which are in my budget range ... Interesting ...😊

Then he mentions to them that the last few songs were being played over his $800 HSU CCB-8 speakers.  Love that sense of humor.
