Porzilli Audio, Laufer Teknik, and darTZeel America with Liquid Cables

It was good to see Sam Laufer again after all these years. It was equally good to hear how fine Mark Porzilli’s Porzilli Audio speakers plus subwoofers ($35,000/pair) sounded in the company of the fabulous darTZeel LHC-208 Mk II integrated amplifier with DAC/streamer ($27,585), a Laufer Teknik Mini Memory Player 64 ($7500), an SVS 3000 Micro subwoofer ($899), and Liquid Cables.

I swore that the next time I heard Rimsky-Korsakov’s infernal Dance of the Tumblers, I’d tumble out of the room. But since this was my penultimate room, I grudgingly remained and noted how well the subs mated with the narrow Porzilli towers. Highs in this room were smooth, not etched, and the finer aspects of Keith Johnson’s recording came through. Spaciousness was exemplary. The system also handled Hubert Sumlin’s “Still Playing the Blues” with aplomb.

The Porzilli Audio speakers have 48 full-range drivers per side and use no crossover. Sound levels begin to drop off at 190Hz and keep dropping until they trail off at 85Hz. Subs kicked in at 165Hz.
