    Customer comments-

     

    Dear Brent, the SA7 has arrived and is playing away. First impressions are of a more refined and detailed sound with a fuller frequency range, especially bass.

     

    Regards, Roger

     

    If this is possible, it actually seems to have improved from switch on to now 2 hours later. There is no doubt that this magnificent machine has been made even better. My wife, who is a musician, has also commented on the superb sound. I have recommended it to JR Acoustics from whom I bought it originally if any other of their customers want to improve on perfection !

     

    Regards, Roger

     

    The more I listen to the SA7 the more impressed I am. There are three things I would say with some certainty.

     

    1. The bass is firmer and more apparent.

    2. There is more smooth detail including acoustic cues

    3. It is as if a layer of very subtle mush had been removed making everything more transparent and natural .Occasional slight edginess has gone.

     

    I am so impressed!

     

    Best regards

    Roger

     

    Hi Brent,I hope that you are keeping well.

    Unit has now settled down and I am delighted with the results. The refined and natural presentation of the player now has greater micro dynamics, improved immediacy, dramatic contrast and transparency.
    Many thanks again for your excellent work,

    Best regards,
    John.
