Coverage of HI-FI '99 from Chicago, USA -- May 12-16, 1999
In a system that included a Wadia 6 CD player, KR Enterprise Model 1 preamp and KR Enterprise VT 8000 MK amps, the dual-woofer Sonatina avoided the bass bloat heard in other rooms to reproduce low frequencies that were nimble and deep along with highs that went on forever but were never harsh. The speaker's finish is gorgeous and satin smooth to the touch. SoundStage! has a review pair coming. |

The Silverline
Audio Sonata speakers ($4995/pair) sounded very good in the KR Enterprise room driven by a
special not-in-production KR Enterprise integrated amp. But the smaller Sonatina
($3495/pair) produced some of the best sound heard anywhere at HI-FI '99 -- with
everything from delicate female vocals to Pink Floyd to pipe-organ music.
