Audio Analogue's wonderful Puccini SE is now
available in a remote-controlled version ($1495) that's also improved soundwise over the
non-remote version. And the remote itself is very nice -- seemingly hewn from a solid
block of aluminum.

Legend Audio's new Starlet integrated amp ($2495) comes in three colors and uses 6550
output tubes to produce 35Wpc.

You may remember the brand name Swans; the new Swans speakers are being distributed by
Perpetual Technologies. From left to right: the Diva 5.1 ($699 per pair), 2.1 ($299 per
pair), 3.1 ($399 per pair), 4.1 ($549 per pair), and 6.1 ($999 pair) Info on 6.1:
paper-Kevlar midrange driver, metal woofers, German tweeter that's +/- 1dB from 2k-15k.

More Swans. Left , the M-6.3 ($2995 per pair and tri-wireable) M-6.2 ($2495 per pair), and
M-6.1 ($1995 per pair). All come with the Perpetual Technologies P1-A room-correction
system, which costs $950 by itself.
