Thanks so much for watching this episode featuring Amadeus Meitner!
Still rocking my Meitner STR-55 and PA-6i in my main system. Ed's impact is huge!
Yes, a DAC without a killler analogue out is never gonna be a great sounding unit. In the past I’ve owned many products from Meitner , all very good.
Advancing the state of the art and meeting the customer where they are at are the right guiding principles. The problem is typical audiophiles hate change which makes any innovation in this space a challenge. It takes strong leadership and fortitude. Also kudos to Amadeus for accepting customer behavior now matter what format or playback device. Don’t look down on a potential customer but show them that there is a better way. That is a formula for enduring success.
Wir sind die Guten! @sonicflare
Danny your question about secession planning is key. It frequently comes to mind, hot on the heels of "how does it sound", when I'm thinking about investing in a product. "Are they going to be here, when the main creative talent moves on or retires?".
Less talk more beers ????. Thanks D. ps kinda dark foreground
Brilliant talk. And YES, Adele sound shit in any platform.
What a great guy, very insightful interview with Mr Amadeus Meitner. I am in awe every single day of how good my system sounds (DS Audio W3 combined with Meitner DS-EQ2), and it is all because of this channel! Many, many thanks and cheers from a (soon to be) very cold Sweden ????????
Now, where can I get hold of those nuts!??
