once again his GamuT room was rocking the house
gamut, reviews
“once again his GamuT room was rocking the house! We’re talking really rich, musical sound that made you remember why the hell we got into high-end audio in the first place (and plain-old audio before that!). I met Benno Meldgaard in Michael’s room, as well. A very cool dude, filled with passion for musical systems…it’s clear that GamuT reflects passion like Benno’s.”

“Both (Audio Skies’ rooms) played black discs on Pear Audio turntables and both featured Gamut speakers (RS3 & RS7) and amplification. Both were making arguably—maybe even absolutely—the best sound at RMAF. Shown in the RS7 speaker that JA very favorably reviewed in the September issue.”

The GamuT RS7 ($39,990/pr.) floorstanders really got my attention. Sourced with the Pear Audio Blue Kid Thomas/Cornet 2 tonearm and optional power supply ($9995) and Ortofon Cadenza Black cartridge ($2729), using all GamuT electronics and cabling, it turned in an amazing performance. Bold dynamics, smooth balance, accurately sized and located images and staging queues, and purity of tone were no problem for this system.,

“the sound was fulsome, lively, dynamic, delicate … in short, it was an effort — as usual — to not start babbling “take my money!” Up top, I found that Kid Thomas turntable from Pear Audio Blue, with the Cornet 2 tonearm ($9,995 for the table/’arm). An Ortofon Cadenza Black ($2,729), one of my favorite cartridges, was run into an Ortofon ST-80 SUT ($1,679), and from there into a Pear Audio Reference 2 phono pre ($4,495).”
