This is a friends system and it is indeed a special case. This system consists of Greek audio components from the company of Tsakiridis Devices. Two brothers dedicated in audio component design and production, of tube products, with high standards and exceptional value for money, succeeding also and abroad! The loudspeakers of this system are brought by Alόn by acarian systems and the model is ''1'' and the role of source has ;only the turntable in this system!

It is an excellent sounbding system with emphasis to musicality and atmosphere. Stereo imaging and flow are some of the strong characteristics with rich detail. Also the driving capabilities of the s.e. monoblock are more than enough to drive these Watt thirsty loudspeakers. This system is a proof of Hi-End sound without spending a fortune!
