Name this wonderful system


 

 

Just took a listen to system on YT now. My oh my, this one is quite special. For bookshelf speakers the results are even more impressive given their size. The creator of the video on YT did not provide any details on the system specifics. 

From looking at the snapshot of the pic taken from YT, what do you all reckon are the speakers , the preamp/amp and DAC/streamer?

I have reached out to the person who uploaded the video for info, however they seem pretty close lipped and mentioned they have many systems so hard to know for certain.

Re : Judging sound on Youtube. I oft think if the sound is even remotely impressive on limited available kbps, imagine what it would sound like in real time. The same can not be said about Amazon Ultra HD , providing more than 2x the kbps than even CD quality sound. In of itself , a major leap forward for digital music streaming. 

 

The ME1 are quite the package, both optically and sonically on the summit of top bookshelf speakers. Did not think much of them upon first listen, then with time their sheer quality came front and center. Looking at a possible ME1/Aesthetix Mimas combo. Now , will have to set aside some time for an audition of the 805/Accuphase pairing. 

The only connection between the music heard and the image seen is that someone decided to marry up the two for a youtube video.  Is the Accuphase integrated even turned on???

Re : the Accuphase amp turned on ?..........I thought the same myself , just wonder if they turned off the display for lighting purposes. After all, there is a display mode button the front panel of the Accuphase E280, which seems to match the amp from the YT channel pic.

 

I highly suspect the sound is straight out of the speakers / system. In order to achieve soundstange width / depth and the instrument separation in recording of this quality, you will need to place highly sensitive microphones (shot gun preferrably) 2-3 feet in front of the speakers, which we do not see at all... On a flip side, the YT music SQ is getting better and better. Several credible youtubers have commented similar. The titles are even more available than some music servers like Tidal.
