I had the pleasure of listening to a system at The SHOW
2 weeks ago in Las Vegas that included the Ultimate
Monitor speakers with Empress ICs and speaker cables. The
electronics were powered via Wolff Power Cords. The sound
in this room was amazing. The speakers melted away and
you were left with one of the most musical experiences
at THE SHOW or CES 2005. This includes some systems that
cost more than the median home price in some parts of the
country. With vocals and small groups the experience was
almost visual. On the spacious soundstage you could easily
place the instruments and singers. After repeated visits
to room 1509 I was moved to purchase several Empress ICs,
a source power cord, and some speaker cables so that I
could rewire my 5.1 system. If I were not so in love with
my Martin Logan speakers I would have also seriously
considered the Ultimate Monitor speakers.
