ALEF shines at Cannes High-End show!
The State-Of-The-Art ALEF "Duet-SE" stereo amplifier + "Director" linestage w/battery Power Supply drives the equally SOTA loudspeaker, "Mosquito Neo" - a (US$70k) design that is getting absolute raves from the Far East ultra high-end!
"Purity close to perfection."
Comments of ALEF @ Cannes Show (from Neo loudspeaker design team) "Being both an acoustics engineer and the designer of the Mosquito Néo 1.2 , I am accustomed to listening to “High End” systems in many settings.
In our own Listening Room, we have used an Electrocompaniet Nemo amplifier and preamplifier, a Luxman C7- M7 and a Pass Lab XA160.
I have also had the opportunity to visit the most famous Hifi shop in the world in Tokyo , Audiodynamics 5555, managed by Toshiaki Kamawata.
The Néo speakers are one of his two favorite speakers.
For me, being in this shop was like being in Ali Baba’s cave. I had the unique opportunity to listen to our speakers driven by Viola, Vitus, and Burmester flagship amplifiers and preamplifiers; Chord (SPM14000 & CPAA4000, Halcro (DM8 + DM88) and Ultimate series from Goldmund Eidos reference (CD transport) préampli Mimesis 24 preamp, Telos 1000 mono amplifiers. The sources were DSC, Esoteric P01-D01-GO, Burmesiter (Reference line), the cable brands were: Mexcel, Transparent.
Listening to my Néo speakers in Tokyo was my best memory; mainly with the Halcro and Golmund products. I was concerned that the Golmund products would sound too harsh, too clear, surgical and without “soul”, but they didn’t.
Before this week this had been my very best sound experience, but thanks to ALEF, I have had the same wonderful experience with the ALEF ("Duet-SE") amplifier and ("Director" w/battery PS) preamplifier.
The sound is fast, vivid, tdense and room-filling. Both the stereo imaging and the recreation of image depth are fantastic; the energy and the dynamics are remarkable. Both are very well controlled to avoid crisp sound in the mid-high frequencies and reproduce a perfect bass line: articulate, deep and powerful.
Néo speakers are 92 dB efficient speakers and Alef is “180 W” but both are with no power limitations. Furthermore this Combo reproduces a natural timbral warmth and most important were the goose bumps that the emotional core of the music instilled in me.
You don’t need to close your eyes to make a cerebral effort to recreate the sound of the original.
I have tried to describe what I felt when I was listening to the system. It was obvious the moment I put on a CD: purity close to perfection."
- Philippe Penna (Designer, Mosquito “Neo” Reference loudspeaker)

Simply Amazing!
Neodio NR 22 Integrated CD Player (w/mini-version of State-Of-The-Art NR22 DAC) August,2010 5-Star "Reference" award from Haute Fidélité
"The NR22 guarantees an excellent level of sophistication through
its highly detailed analysis of each musical sound component."
NR22 CD player "The NR22 was one of those sources that could equally appeal to audiophiles as to music lovers, which is actually not that common. It is true that the NR22 is a player who returns with an accuracy of first order, the information contained on the disk. I have on several occasions have remained impressed by his ability to highlight every detail of a complex mix." - http://www.evmag.fr/site.php?page=audio95

ALEF Duet-SE amplifier
Review Excerpts (translated) Dynamics: "The Alef communicates tremendous energy on transients. The magnitude when listening to the bass line gives a real sense of presence in the room. The chords are clear and precise, the rhythm is accurately articulated and one feels no bass volume exaggeration meaning the ALEF is sovereign and in control of the lowest octaves." "On drum keystrokes or on timbale impacts, we feel precisely and distinctly the emitted sound impulse of every attack followed by how each note ripples the drumskin. The dynamics of this amplifier is distributed on the audio spectrum in a very linear & balanced way with no part of the spectrum slighted or exaggerated. The Alef is incisive and powerful."
Soundstaging: "High level of precision of spatial soundstaging is a part of this Italian Dual-Mono stereo block. Although it has such extraordinary qualities of dynamics without restraints, one could not expect same high level of signal resolution and equally high level of soundstaging. It can virtually create a space of holographic illusion and the Alef creates a portrayal of live singing and melodic reproduction"
Tonality/Transparency: “This amplifier offers a very pure listening, very neutral listening experience due in part to the ultrawide bandwidth – on paper and also subjectively. Very powerful male voice & delicate female voice often suggest that of a triode - sometimes approaching the absolute very best with accurate voice without paralysis.”
Conclusion: "Wonderful exercise of style this amplifier Alef Duet SE (by Delta Sigma). Starting from a proprietary circuitry that can be tuned, if necessary to the need and wishes of each owner, the manufacturer propose a device capable to satisfy all situations, offering a clear, precise and defined reproduction from the extreme bass to the extreme high."
"The amplifier is able to play loud, very loud, without any audible sign of stress, or to distil a delicate melody at low volume, in class A. It can do almost everything, and does it well. The price is relatively high, but it benefits of custom, handmade manufacturing and of “sur mesure” concept - unique in the world."

Neodio NR 22 Integrated CD Player
August,2010 5-Star "Reference" award from Haute Fidélité
Haute Fidélité
Exclusive HF Show features $60k Focal + Neodio system!
◦ JM Labs-Focal "Scala Utopia" ◦ Neodio NR22 CD Player ◦ NR600 Integrated Amplifier
"From the first seconds of listening, one realizes that we are facing a high-end (high performance) system regardless of price. The influence of the electronics is immediately felt by a silent operation for the reproduction and of the tiniest information contained on the disk is accurately read."
"Here, no coloration. Listening is very typical monitor, with great respect of dynamics with a very accurate rendition. It is also immediately struck by the size of the soundstage, very well proportioned and without magnifying effect. The organ of St Mary's Cathedral in San Francisco (Reference Recordings RR-98CD) appears in its full extent, with buffets clearly identifiable, and a 32 foot round hot is accurately returned in its entirety."

Latest Reviews: Delta Sigma "North Pole-SE" "At my feet, the Italian integrated amplifier "North Pole-SE" from Delta Sigma. The listening session I could share with Romain on B&W Diamond Signature and ProAC D28, all linked with cable 47 Lab, have demonstrated the extraordinary capability in current of this integrated amplifier. These two loudspeakers have been literally transformed by the energy perfectly controlled, with a strong sense of detail and subtlety…” "These systems represent two approaches very closed to the unachievable sound perfection: the B&W Diamond Signature fed by the Delta Sigma integrated amplifier are the perfection of actual highest technology.” - Revue du Son (Robert Lacrampe, Editor)
ALEF by Delta Sigma Flat to 6Mhz - pure as the finest OTL amplifier & lightning fast! Breathtaking liquid transparency & explosive dynamics! The finest sounding and most technological advanced amplifier available.
"Kosmos" custom alloy has higher conductivity than pure silver or copper. 8-step annealing/cryo process. Simply the finest cables and AC cords available. Metronome Kalista
