CES 2011: The Art of the Possible

Trenner & Friedl Duke

While 2010 may have seen some sluggishness in sales in the U.S., the folks at Trenner & Friedl, Heed Audio and Viva Audio have been extremely productive advancing their art. Andreas Friedl will be introducing his absolute statement in loudspeaker design, the Duke, January 6-9 at the 2011 CES in Venetian Suite 35-204, in a cooperative effort with Profundo, Cardas Audio and Jeff Rowland Design Group. This loudspeaker heralds in a new epoch in natural, coherent, high-resolution musicality, establishing a new realm in the art of cost-no-object design. In Venetian Suite 29-123, Profundo will be driving the mighty little Art mini-monitor with the astounding new Obelisk separates from Heed Audio, extending the limits of what is possible within the budgetary realities we presently face. With a level of resolution and musicality previously acheiveable only with very expensive SET amps, these affordable electronics allow the Arts to sing as they can, seemingly limited only by the quality of what is in front of them.

Analog source will again be an Orpheus L, feeding the recent TAS Golden Ear Award-winning Viva Fono. Digital source will be the new Heed Obelisk DT/DA combo, which comes closer to the analog experience than anything we have heard in the digital domain.

Importer and U.S. distributor for the world's finest high-end audio equipment: Transfiguration cartridges, VivA electronics, Silent Source Cables, Heed electronics, Trenner & Friedl loudspeakers.
