High End 2022 Sights and Sounds: Absolare, Rockport Technologies
Approximate system cost: €350,000
The pairing of Absolare electronics and Rockport Technologies speakers has been a tried-and-true success story. It’s that much-debated synergy thing. The strengths of the combination were once again evident in the trumpet’s brassy qualities sounding tonally true. Very much enjoyable was the way the system separated the various musical strands. Rhythmic qualities were toe-tappingly strong, and vocals were delineated clearly from the rest of the mix.
