Gone but not forgotten

Which Nakamichi is gone? I’ve just moved and have been eyeing the Nakamishi Dragon wireless surround to eliminate wires everywhere. 

ADS, Infinity prior to going mass market, Crown.

Apt Holeman preamp fantastic I’m still using in one of my systems. Hafler, Nakamichi Dual Turntable. The Best automatic Turntable that I have ever experienced am using one in my second system

My Audio buddy restored and sold me one of his Supephon preamps, this was the other half of PS Audio  , Best sounding for phonograph, Long gone now, but still enjoying the restored one

Kirksaeter:

In 1987 or so my soon-to-be-wife and I went shopping for speakers at a local brick and mortar hifi store here in the DC metro area named Audio Associates. We listened to a speaker brand from Germany named Kirksaeter.  She nodded in approval.   That was my WAF for our soon-to-be family.   Kirksaeter had a substantial product line of receivers and speakers in Germany and marketed some speakers here in the DC mid-atlantic area.   You still see a number of Kirksaeter products on HiFiShark but in Europe.   Kirksaeter went out of business I guess around 2000 or so.    I have three pairs of Kirksaeters in my living room powered  with three separate BlueSound PowerNodes bundled as a "group".  These are sealed "acoustic suspension"  speakers with a teak veneer.  Back then there was what was said to be an "east coast sound"  and a "west coast sound".  The "east coast sound" was typical of Advent with acoustic suspension and the "west coast sound" was generally ported speakers such as Altec Lansing. These Kirksaeter monitors are typical of that "east coast sound".
