Today, I continued my exploration and went to the 8th floor. First stop was the Swedish Statement room.
The reality that the sound quality of the many systems on demo is very high was again very evident today as I went from room to room.
Here are some of the highlights:
Marten Bird 2 speakers, Vitus pre and power amps, CD transport and DAC and Dohlmann turntable in the Swedish Statement room.
Dohmann Helix 1 turntable in the Swedisn Statement room.
Roksan integrated amp and CD player and ATC speakers in the Hiway Laser room.
Dali and PS Audio.
Nelson and Mathew Weisfeld (popularly known as Mat), the younger son of VPI Industries Inc founders Sheila and Harry Weisfeld. Note the gigantic Rosso Florentino’s flagship loudspeakers – Florentia – behind Nelson.
The Player turntable by VPI which has a built-in headphone amp.
Audionote speakers and amp plus Brinkmann turntable.

After the Kojo Technology Crystal Ep virtual grounding plugs improved the sound when fixed to the black terminals of my ATC speakers, I tried the third plug with RCA cap on my preamp. I couldn't find any unused RCA input in my streamer/transport, DAC or power amp, so I had to use the tube Lamm LL2 Deluxe preamp for the test.

Kenix Chua of Begins Acoustic gave me the opportunity to try grounding speakers when she handed me three Kojo Technology Crystal Ep virtual grounding plugs on the last day of the Kuala Lumpur International AV Show last weekend. Two of them had spades while the third had an RCA plug. I was told to plug them into the black terminals of the speakers or an unused black RCA jack of the preamp, DAC or streamer.
