Hifi + Munich High-End 2024: Final Round-Up
The €624,700 flagship MBL Reference Line system was on song. Yet, alongside the usual €55,900 worth of CD transport 1621 A and D/A Converter 1611 F, this system was fed by the new €8,950 C41 streamer from the company’s Cadenza Line. This sounded excellent when played through the recently uprated €330,000 per pair 101 X-Treme Mk II four-tower Radialstrahler loudspeakers. The sound didn’t disappoint. Not that you’d expect a six-foot-tall omnidirectional loudspeaker flanked by a similarly six-foot-tall subwoofer playing an extremely wide variety of music to disappoint, but even by their usual lofty standards, the new MBLs shone! - Alan Sircom May 29, 2024
