Excerpt: "On May 29, Adam Wexler's Resolution A/V, in Red Hook, Brooklyn, debuted new products from two heavy hitters in the audio world: Brooklyn's DeVore Fidelity and renowned Swiss brand Nagra.
"These brands have staying power," Wexler noted in a conversation after the event. "Nagra equipment is woven into our culture, having played a large role in music and film. DeVore has been around for a very long time as well. The speakers they design don't frequently change. When John designs a speaker and he says it sounds good, it sounds good, and then it sells for more than 13 years without any changes. None of this 'MKII' marketing stuff—it was made right the first time."
Nagra's René Laflamme was on hand for the world première of the new Reference line. Set up in the larger of two playback rooms, the system comprised the Nagra Reference Anniversary 70th Anniversary Limited Edition Turntable and Tonearm ($185,000) fitted with a Nagra Reference moving coil cartridge ($18,500); a Nagra Classic Phono Preamplifier and Classic Power Supply with a Nagra VFS Isolation Base ($42,950); and, for good measure, a vintage Nagra IV S reel to reel tape deck on an HRS Isolation Platform." by Ken Micallef
