Stenheim’s room at HIGH END

Following on the heels of AXPONA in the States, the global audio community gathers in Munich in May for High End – the world’s biggest hi-fi show. More than 1’000 brands attempt to grab the attention of the over 20’000 visitors, including the world’s hi-fi press and audio professionals.

The show is so vast that it is impossible to visit all of it, for those with the task of doing so, and it is very hard for a brand to stand out, but Stenheim did.

We reinvented our room to look like a library or living room, complete with Chesterfield sofa and parquet floor. Into this décor we installed a Nagra Classic system on a Modulum Audio rack with Thales turntable and tonearm and hooked it up to our brand new Alumine Five LE limited edition speakers with Crystal cable.

The Absolute Sound’s Alan Taffel liked what he heard: “Stenheim and Nagra Audio had one of the best-sounding [rooms], not to mention the best backdrop.”

Tom Martin, also from The Absolute Sound, felt it was one of the few rooms that he had to highlight.

After AXPONA, the Reference Ultime Two SX’s also made a big appearance at High End. They featured in Nagra’s own room, this time on the end of a full HD system, but also in darTZeel’s room bi-amped by four NHB-468 monoblocs!

Amongst the the huge array of loudspeaker manufacturers on display at this major event, we are proud to have caught the ears of some of the world’s most respected journalists and to have enthused the visitors to the show.
