Salon Son & Image 2010 Coverage - 3/3

Ironically, the very last room that I visited also turned out to be my favorite at the show. I spent well over an hour in the L'Atelier-Audio room listening to great music and chatting with Samuel Furon about their wonderful hand built audio products.

Shown in the photo above Ocellia Calliope.30 Twin Signature speakers ($TBD), Ocellia Quaero 300B - PP Signature monoblock amps and Ocellia Quaero Pre-Amplifier Signature. All the L'Atelier-Audio loudspeakers use high sensitivity drivers from PHY-HP and no filters are used.

The beautiful hand-built cabinets have a door on the rear which allows adjustment of the open baffle speakers. The photos below show the smaller Ocellia Calliope.21 Signature speakers.

The side walls of the enclosure are only 3 mm thick and braced much like an acoustic guitar. The Ocellia Calliope.30 Twin Signature speakers were fantastic with vocals and strings and I really enjoyed listening to them.

The show and Montreal were great and I'm sure I'll be back soon.

Cheers, Gio
