There comes a point where you no longer need to wax lyrical about how good things are. At Lotus, the mere fact of something being included in my shop already communicates much. That is what customers have come to expect from us and what we place in our portfolio can even influence other dealers both at home and overseas.
That being said, the beautiful new Piano Classic loudspeaker from Tidal Audio invites me to break that rule.
There's no easy way of saying this elegantly but here goes. If these speakers were priced at £50,000, nothing that has ever passed through these walls would exceed their performance up to that same price point. They would be a profoundly competitive and compelling product, even when judged against other Tidal Audio speakers in the range. But here's the twist .... they aren't £50,000 but cost just £28,500.
As a dealer it's difficult to put into words what this really means and how breathtaking they truly sound. In a phrase, a veritable gift to the industry. Please simply come for a listen at your leisure and find out everything for yourself with your own ears.
They will be playing here at Lotus for all of September and October. They will be available to hear at the forthcoming Stereonet HiFi show at Heathrow 12-13th September, and then will be the subject at a Lotus weekend event in early October (dates to be announced). Available to purchase as of now from Lotus Hifi and Satori HiFi
As the most important component in any system, the Classic literally breathes new power into my shop and what we can do for customers. We don’t necessarily need a statement system either to unlock what these speakers can do. They will work their magic with almost anything. The Piano Classic doesn’t simply join the Lotus portfolio ... it changes it.
