Post Subject: The Macondo's “space texture” with PP2000Posted by Romy the Cat on: 1/1/2009

As I said before, in many if not all instances the provisions for “bad electricity” are deeply entrenched into the design of our playbacks. A few days back I took advantages of some new possibilities that PP2000 offered and made some changes in playback. It is trully a new level of game all together. For instance I always was very proud with the level of integration of Macondo drivers.  It is 8 feet tall installation but it performs integration-wise more interesting and more complied then a single-driver and it might do from insulting distance of 6.2feet. With the PP2000 I went even more offensive and I moved my couch for one foot closer and toe-off the speakers a bit. The result is very impressive. The whole concept of integration I juts evaporated and Macondo not throw imaging as one completely integrated sound field where the relationship between right-left, up-down, closer-further are presented in very different and completely other  format.  I know for ordinary reader who never was in my room is sound ridicules that 6-way 8 feet tall playback might be properly integrated from 5.2feetand not just “properly integrated” but able to resolve advance tasks of integration. I witnessed again and witnessed the people who never hear HOW Macondo sound sit in my couch with a sense of doubt and apology to me as the speakers from the listening position even looks like they are “not together”. The doubts usually stop when Macondo begins to play. That what was before. Now in addition to integration came a new sense of space texture.  Do you remember I for years was pitching a concept of imaging without soundstage? Well, for 99% of audio people out there it was not understood idea BUT there is something more behind even the “imaging without soundstage”. I mentioned that “next level” before but it did not have a momentum as it was VERY difical to get, I called it “flexible soundstage with space vectors”….

Since now Macondo is very comfortably and absolutely predictable operates at this new level of “flexible soundstage with space vectors” I think I will be talking about it in future.
