German Physiks - A huge "wow"


I just wanted to share with my fellow audiophiles my adoration for a pair of German Physik Carbon mkIV I recently purchased. I am not a dealer or distributor, just a consumer/audiophile.

I have owned many of the finest speakers we are all aware of, and most have been excellent.

What I am hearing from the German Physiks is a cohesiveness/continuousness that I have never heard from any other loudspeaker. Imaging is excellent but not "razor sharp"..just natural like a live performance.
As if you painted a soundstage from speaker to speaker with a single stroke of your brush.

Detail and transparency are included, without the slightest
hint of etchiness or fatige; Image stability with a large "sweetspot". I just received them on Saturday and my significant other had to pry me away for meals...I best be careful!

These speakers and this line are too fine to be ignored. However, they are expensive, especially with our terribly weak dollar...I feel fortunate that I was able to make the purchase.

I would urge all to have a listen if possible, even if out of your price range. After 23 years as an audiophile, I didn't believe I could be totally surprised and bowled over by the presentation of any new loudspeaker....I was wrong.

Good listening to all and stay well!

I own a pair of Ohm Walsh 5 Series 3 speakers and have had a similar experience as MusicDesign describes with the GP's with the Ohms.

I suspect the Ohms are much cheaper and more within the price range of many on this site.

If GP sounds good to you but are out of your price range, you might want to consider the Ohms.

Ohm is a US company based in Brooklyn, NY that has been in the speaker business for almost 40 years now I think. They currently only sell factory direct (no dealers or distributors) and offer some attractive in-home trial options to help mitigate the risk.
Drubin/Ramy,

If there's a party at your place Ramy and I'm invited, I'm there, no doubt!
I visited Ramy last Saturday while in D.C. - let me just say that Ramy is a very gracious host with a stunning, STUNNING system. He has managed to assemble one of the most musically satisfying system my ears have had the pleasure to soak in.

Ramy - thanks again for inviting us over! We enjoyed our time immensely.

I wanted to mention that I owned a pair of German Physiks HRS-120 with the carbon fiber cabinets, but regular drivers. I found them to be very nice, but ill suited to my large room. My other speakers, Audio Physic Avanti III fill the room better and were preferred in my system. I think the HRS-120 would be killer in a small room though.
