Title: Late night listening / Zen Master Series Baffles
Post by Steve Deckert on 07/03/20 at 03:46:00

I recorded this with my phone...

A simple slice of my late night listening session with the 2 watt 25th Anniversary Zen Triode amplifier driving the model ZF15M open baffle loudspeakers. The amplifier was being driven by a ZBIT that was being driven by the ZTPRE being fed by the Cambridge CXNv2.

If it can sound that good off of a phone mic, just imagine what magical goodness awaits someone listening in real time, in person. A long time ago I bought a little Zen kit from Decware to prove out the concept I had read in all of Steve's articles and papers. It was proof positive. Sold all my gear except sources, bought our Decware and Omega gear and have never been happier or more content with our audio system. Pure magic, day in and day out. Thank you Steve and Team Decware. Happy listening, Chris.

I may be demonstrating my ignorance here. Can someone tell me who the artist is?

Thanks
Dave

I'd be curious to know what recording that is. Just listening on laptop speakers, but there's a strong ringing coming from the snare drum - I'd be curious to hear how much of that is just the tuning of the drum captured on the recording.

Thanks Steve, just took a listen on my main system. Those drums are just tuned to sound naturally lively in the recording - the kind of lively you don't hear often elsewhere. Love it! Love the effortless guitar playing, too.

Thanks again for sharing!
