"... Key words that I kept bringing to the fore with the Electrocompaniet unit were drive, clarity, punch, detail, and a seemingly effortless sense of control...."
"... there is definitely something with the EC 5 that is about connection to the music. Yes, it’s a technically superlative product (at this price you would naturally expect it to be), but there is something indefinable that it brings to the party that is just so very right. Yes, it’s deadly quiet. Yes, it’s detailed. Yes, it’s got great rhythm. Yes, there’s a certain “je ne sais quoi” that I can’t quite put my finger on that lifts this from being a technically wonderful product to being a machine for bringing joy to the listening experience.
"... Punch and power whilst retaining detail and microdynamics. The connection with the music is second to nothing I’ve experienced at home before in this system.
Speed and dynamics are amazing! ..."
