The March 2014 meeting of the Sydney Audio Club sees us once again at Dence Park for an afternoon of fine music and sound and convivial company. Each month, the Sydney Audio Club presents the finest in high end audio systems for our members and guests. It's a bit like a private audio show once a month where you can hear and discuss equipment that you might not otherwise have the chance to audition. And you can bring along your own music to test the capabilities of the system or to just share with like-minded music lovers in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. For March, we have a great system from Audio Note UK presented by Bryan Fletcher of Finn Bespoke Technology Pty Ltd, the Australian distributor for Audio Note UK. Please refer to http://www.audionote.com.au/Audio_Note_Australia.html. Bryan will be presenting the same system that was presented at the Australian Audio and AV Show in October last year. Detail of that system and some photos can be seen at http://www.audionote.com.au/2013_Melbourne_HiFi_Show.html. So if you missed it then, now is your opportunity to hear it..! Bryan is a very amicable fellow - I’m sure you’ll find his presentation to be both informational and entertaining. The equipment line-up will be as follows: Audio Note CDT 3 Transport with the Black Pallas Digital cable. (Refer to http://www.audionote.co.uk/products/digital/cdt_three_01.shtml). To quote Audio Note UK from their web site... “The Audio Note CDT 3 transport has a top loading, custom modified Philips CD Pro2LF CD mechanism, power supply with 3 separate mains transformers, Audio Note AN-Vx silver cable for internal digital signal transfer, silver wired digital output transformer using thin laminated core, Audio Note Tantalum resistors.†Audio Note DAC 4 Balanced with Sootto Interconnect. (Refer to http://www.audionote.co.uk/products/digital/dac_4.1x_sig_01.shtml). If you are curious, Sooto stands for “SO Over The TOp!â€. (It has 120 strands of pure silver strands in each conductor, split between 3 different wire gauges. Yes, it’s expensive!) Audio Note M6 Preamp with Sootto Balanced Interconnect. (Refer to http://www.audionote.co.uk/products/preamp/m6_01.shtml). To again quote Audio Note UK from their web site... “Level Four line pre-amplifier, with Audio Noteâ„¢ 1 watt tantalum resistors, Audio Noteâ„¢ silver wiring, 5687 line stage with novel power supply design based on the patented M10, 6X5, OB2, ECL82, Black Gateâ„¢ WKz filter caps, Audio Noteâ„¢ in-house designed and wound output transformers with copper primary and an Audio Noteâ„¢ silver wired secondary on an 0.1 mm Audio Noteâ„¢ AN-Perma 50 nickel double C-cores.Phono version has MM phono stage with Audio Note copper foil capacitors and 6072A double triodes.†Audio Note Ongaku Kensei Stereo power amplifier with ELROG 211 Tubes and Sogon LX-96 Speaker cable. The Ongaku Kensei is a fairly new addition (January 2012). It’s based on the Ongaku Integrated, but has no preamp section and has a very high quality balanced input instead. The new manufacture of these German made ELROG 211 tubes are a minor miracle in themselves, refer to http://www.audionote.com.au/NEW_-_Elrog_Tubes.html. Audio Note AN-E Alnico SPe Signature Speakers. (Refer to http://www.audionote.co.uk/products/speakers/an-e_01.shtml). From the UK web site… “The AN-E must be the most efficient wide band speaker of moderate size on the market, with an effective bandwidth from 18 Hz to 23 kHz at -6 dB, efficiency better than 95 dB/m and a dynamic headroom above 108 dB. The extremely high efficiency is retained well over the bandwidth, and makes the AN-E very suited to the high quality, low-power triode amplifiers that will form the future of music reproduction, once our obsession with power and specifications is generally recognized as folly.†The second half of the music sessions will be our popular BYO. Members and guests are welcome to offer music to share with us all. Please note: There will be no turntable, nor will there be any SACD or hi-res playback options. So bring along your favourite music on CD only. All we ask is that the music and recordings be interesting. We'll ask you to tell us a little about the artist/recording before it is played. Tracks over 6 minutes will be faded out, to give everyone a fair go. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned veteran, you will have the opportunity to listen, learn and share your experiences with others of a similar mind. Guests are always welcome – we are a very friendly club so you don't need to know anyone to join us for an afternoon of fine music and sound. We will welcome you at the door. Venue: Epping Creative Centre Address: 26 Stanley St, Epping When: Sunday 9th March 2014 Doors open 1pm Meeting starts at 2pm Best regards, Tom Waters President Sydney Audio Club www.sydneyaudioclub.org.au tomwaters@sydneyaudioclub.org.au
