Mr. Kazuo Kiuchi,
Managing Director
|
|
|
Mr. Kiuchi's "Bravo!"
minimonitor already encompasses his goal of recreating a full-range
sound. His recent ongoing development of the matching
Consequence subwoofer system is, in reality, a succumbing to the demands of the majority of audience for emphasis in bottom-end
vigor, above all sonic considerations. To Mr. Kiuchi,
the concept of bottom-end rendition is one of acoustic accuracy, not
of sensual stimulation. He is of the opinion that
musical bottom-octave ought to be reproduced as in a dispersive
wave-front, like that from an instrument, not as the
forward-firing approach intended for maximum impact.

As an owner of the 7Wpc
PAT-777, I continued to find its ability to drive the 87dB/8Ω
"Bravo!" remarkable
every time I listened to it. At
the CES, Mr. Kiuchi used two PAT-777's wired to operate in monoblock
to drive the same speakers with the Consequence. The
characteristics of sound from a whole suite of Harmonix Reimyo electronics at this SHow was one of astounding
coherency, spaciousness and delicate, precise imaging.
My wife and I returned to the Harmonix room during the Show
sometimes more than once everyday.
