Bristol Sound & Vision Show 2010
We were delighted to once again work with Wilson Benesch at this years Bristol Sound and Vision Show. Visitors experienced a Wilson Benesch
reference system showcasing high-end audio at it finest level. The reference system comprised the unrivalled Chimera fed by the Wilson Benesch
Turntable and Nano-tube Tone-arm, Audionet sources and pre-amplification and KR Audio Kronzilla DX100 Dual Mono-block Power Amplifiers.
Two Wilson Benesch Torus Infrasonic Generators were also utilised to support and reinforce the lowest frequencies.
A combination of cables were used in the system to ensure optimal performance. Two Copper-line Power-HUBs provided power for the system
through a three-phase outlet. Sources and pre-amplification were powered with Silver-line Power Cables whilst the multi-award winning Copper-line
Power Cable powered all amplification. High-end systems require the very best interconnects and speaker cables to ensure that the audio signal
is delivered to the listener as intended; Silver-line Optimus Reference Interconnects were used throughout whilst a new incarnation of the Silver-line
Optimus Reference Speaker Cable (currently in design and development).
The sound was arguably the best yet heard at the now known "Wilson Benesch Glass House" and saw many visitors coming back to enjoy the
indulgent soundstaging, scale, detail and sheer presence. The bar is set very high for next year...

Bristol Sound & Vision Show 2010 - Friday 26 February to Sunday 28 February
Wilson Benesch is renowned for manufacturing high-end turntables and loudspeakers utilising advanced composite materials such as
carbon fibre along with many other innovations which push the boundaries of design, architecture and performance. Clearer Audio continues to use
Wilson Benesch products - as we have done for many years now - as an absolute reference.
Pure music reproduction is the focus at the Bristol Sound & Vision Show this year where two special hi-fi systems will be presented. The
foundation for both systems will be the sublime multi award-winning Full Circle turntable. System One will feature the Curve loudspeaker; and
System Two will feature the incomparable A.C.T. C60 loudspeaker. Both loudspeakers feature carbon fibre monocoques (as seen in Formula One
racing cars) providing a cabinet that is without rival when it comes to performance. The A.C.T. C60 takes things further, with the monocoque
utilising significantly more carbon fibre which is also enhanced with carbon nano-tubes; whilst W.B. One drive units and the Sphere Ultrasonic
Generator offer wide bandwidth performance. Electronics will be provided by Audionet providing digital sources and all aspects of amplification;
and we are delighted that Wilson Benesch has once again chosen to use Clearer Audio cables in both systems.
Darren Smith (Director) of Clearer Audio is excited to be working with Wilson Benesch all weekend and looks forward to perhaps seeing you
there.
