Dear Gordon, I empathize with your feeling because so many high end audio
products are under-engineered and over-priced. Some can accurately be described
as fraudulent. But if you and I sat down together, looked at what the real costs
of making the M1's are, and evaluated their advantages and stunning
craftsmanship, I think you'd agree that they are fairly priced and excellent
value for money. One reason I founded Daniel Hertz SA is that I was saddened if
not sickened by what happened to high end audio. It all started in the early
1970's from passion for quality, excellence in audio engineering, and most
importantly, a love of music, both live and reproduced. Look at what it became.
Daniel Hertz SA is expensive no doubt, but when you see what you get, it's lke a
great musical instrument - worth every penny to the right person. There are many
of my units working perfectly after 35 years of daily use, still giving pleasure
and retaining considerable value. Daniel Hertz SA, while very different in many
design terms from my previous efforts, is intended to produce prized possessions
that cannot be duplicated for less. Please give us a chance and don't jump to
conclusions until you hear, see and understand what we are doing. You are likely
to feel differently. Form opinions after you have all the facts.

Sanjay Patel - I completely agree with this

Form opinions after you have all the facts. These look fabulous. I can't wait
to hear them.

More than one thinks so - Who cares...Just another failure to come!

Nothing made me sicker when you doubled the
retail price of the Audio Prism amps after you'd bought the company and renamed
it Red Rose Music. That was really disgusting and from then on I stopped being
a fan of yours.

Go on and piss about Mark. Cry all you want. Truth is he will go down in history
as one of the true innovators of high end audio. Good luck affecting history the
way he has. I have heard the new systems and thank God he thinks he's super
special at what he does, because it shows in every atom of this new creation.
These systems bury others alive that cost much more. Sounds like RRM was a high
profit venture. To me that is smart marketing and what any shrewd businessman
does. Kudos to being a success at selling the crap out of Chinese product. I see
success after success for this guy..

Mark may have an interesting personality, but that is a common trait among
innovators and entrepreneurs. It takes that kind of determination to make
something in the face of naysayers. I will be really curious to hear how these
do .... There is an amazing group out of New York called Ciamara. The work
they do is truly outstanding, and they are starting to turn some heads. Watch
out for these guys. Maybe Mark Levinson would be willing to do a side-by-side
with Ciamara to see which ones people like better?

nunya - More vapor-ware ?

Looked on the Ciamara website and not one place does it say who they are and why
they know anything about audio. I can see that they are dealers, and can gather
that they are studio guys, but every professional studio builder I know has his
own line of speakers so they can maximize profit on their installs. The majority
of the Ciamara product is just digital renderings and drawings which makes me
doubt the product has ever been made. Then to charge $49K per speaker and not
even say who designed it ?? Good luck with that one. I honestly cant imagine
we'll have to "watch out" for yet another pro audio outfit trying to
sell overpriced speakers to the "idiots" in the high end hobby. We tend
to buy from names we know that have history in our niche. And nobody likes
drawings of product. If it really exists, then prove it.

Maybe you should contact them and ask for a demonstration. I have heard their
stuff. It is incredible. Nothing I have heard anywhere from hi fi to studio
stuff comes even clowe.

Great idea, I could compare them directly.
Have spent time with Maggies,
Dunlavy, Nola, Sound Labs, B&W,JM Labs etc. More important than a product is the
people behind it though.

Levinson and other scoundrels, and experts of hype, D'Agastino and on and on, PS
Audio, they just continue making more BS under a different name. Grossly over
priced, why don't ya sell to the Michael Fremer nudnick, if it's over priced he
glorify it. High End is 92% filled with con men and skunks. Magic wires, and
another "breakthrough" all crap. How come all these innovators come
and go, like running from the tax man. How come Audio by VanAlstine is STILL
making great stuff with mortal prices after 40 YEARS! So many have come and
gone, cus BS doesn't hold up. real quality stuff does.
