Nice coverage.

FYI-

The Podium speakers pictured in your coverage are .5s not 1s, and they both have already been reviewed(see Podium's website and Sixmoons).

The Von Gaylord Amps are not cooled with water.

This show coverage is excellent.

I was extremely impressed with the Rethm Saadhana speakers, as was the author.  They truly disappeared, and I also noticed the "potential problems" with lack of room treatment and large corner spa tub.  The system seemed impervious to any of this, and just played beautiful music.  I could have sat and listed for most of the day to that system with the Red Wine Signature 30.2, and had to muster much resolve to get up and visit other rooms.  Truly outstanding sound.

Going on to a different room that I visited which was reported on, I wasn't as impressed with the mega-buck single driver speaker as the author apparently was.  I did not hear the earlier version at RMAF like the author did, but even this new improved version didn't have me dancing in the aisles.

Having owned 2nd Rethms for a few years, they are fantastic
speakers capable of magic (as you guys heard) with the right
amp and the right room.

And that means a bigger rather than smaller one.  The more you
can get those speakers out in the room the bigger the soundstage
and the more depth.

They respond quite well to the 30.2 because with the high efficiency,
they reveal every bit of background noise in your system.  With
the 30.2 being so quiet, this is a real plus!

I'd love to see Jacob George get more of a foothold with Rethm
in the US.  Boys, get our your checkbooks!!

You and me both, Jeff. btw, since you own the 2nds, I think you would be tickled pink by the Saadhanas which add true bass and with the latest driver mods (new compression chamber cone, felt behind the cone and basket plus the absorptive side panels) sings like nobody's business. In fact, you're uniquely positioned to report on how the Saadhana compares to and improves over the 2nd. I'm sure that fact must have occurred to Jacob already  :green:
