RLA - 100x better than HiFi

This is about a feeling.


While others try to find excitement in small boxes, 50 years ago Richard Long built sound systems with 20 dB more efficiency. Mathematically, it's a hundred times more sound power from your amp, and you can definitely feel the difference. But be warned: after this experience, you won't want to go back to HiFi.



It took me many weeks to optimise the RLA setup. I spent all my free time on it and was ill for two and a half weeks afterwards.


It took so much time climbing up and down, changing the damping and doing reinforcement, and finding the ideal components. And every time, measuring and listening. I learnt a lot!


To cut a long story short:

I fell in love with the AlNiCo chassis. There are more details and colours, and it's simply beautiful-sounding.

Waldorf doesn't make kick bass. It's either muddy deep bass or an extinction of kick bass. Like Richard, I'll take it further and another construction will follow.


Many thanks to Laurin for sharing "secret" information, to Stefan for lending expensive active components, and to David, who will hopefully continue in this crazy way together with me.



Here are some spoilers: There will be a big event in July at which Waldorf&Berha will be the main act.
