OCEAN FIVE PACIFIC REFERENCE LOUDSPEAKER





        It is impossible not to notice the ‘new blue’ speaker towering over you as you step into the room. In a high gloss spray paint finished, this Pacific Reference speakers – a 4-piece configuration - demand attention. Equally attention seeker is this world first counter rotation dual platters turntable called KRONOS Reference Turntable. With both the platters rotating at opposite direction is a very unusual sight, it gives one a sense of something so uniquely different from the rest of the turntables. Amplification is by Magnet with Nagra phono and pre front end. The treacherous power in hotel environment is handled by 12 pieces of Frank Power Bank that provide unimpeded power supply from the power reservoir they formed. All cables are using the mighty Skogrand cables from Norway which I am also using – a cable that I considered to the best cables I have ever come across. The system seems to be quite “ready” for any kind of music thrown at it in the sense that it adheres closely to the dynamic of the music closely. This is especially apparent in the rise and falls or swing of big band music of Duke Ellington that Louis Desjardins care to demonstrate; a poor recorded piece makes it sounded quite listenable with all the right attributes of spatial and context information that allow one to be transported to the typical music scene of that era. It is also especially comfortable playing the extended version with electronic mixed entitled “Honey” by Mariah Carey; that the continuous thumbing of the electronic bass and the constant changes, the variables found in the mix shows absolutely no trace of hesitation or has any pitch issue; it just sail through picking up all the ups and downs, starts, stops in the music. Louise said that the music makes him wanted to dance and he pick those words out of my inner bones! As if Louise thought that I was not impress enough, he, at the end of the demo, took out his i-phone with vibration measuring App, he put it on one of the four corner posts which shows acceleration readings of the vibration caused by the pounding Honey track of Mariah Carey. What freak me out is when he put the phone on the upper plate of Kronos Turntable which shows absolutely zero reading! This is so wired!
