I’ve recently bought a pair of Alchris AR2’s (formerly Kralk audio). They are fabulous, music just oozes out of them. They are highly resolving and extremely engaging.
They have also had the unexpected positive effect of really improving digital playback (pi4 into a quad vena). I’m quite blown away by this tbh and hadn’t realised how good this could sound. It sounds fabulous, music just flows and is very three dimensional.
However, this has also had a negative effect on vinyl playback (rega 3 exact into phone stage in the quad vena). Vinyl playback before was better than digital, or at least more engaging to my ears. It was quiet (little background noise) whereas now background noise and any distortion is more easily heard. The exact is quite high output and I wonder whether the speakers are now accentuating this?
Any thoughts welcome…
