In my opinion European audio manufacturers provide products of
comparable quality with the US industry. In terms of purity European
high-end systems sound better than contemporary US machines. So I think
it was a problem with your vendor that drove you to this decision rather
than the audio gear failure. My system which consists of a British
amplifier, Italian speakers and a French CD player sounds fantastic when
compared with
US gear of the same price range.
This system is:
Amplifier Alchemist Nemesis
Speakers Chario Syntar 300T
CD player Micromega Stage3
I'm looking forward to hear your opinions.
Be happy and safe
