Kuzma zanimivosti

[kuzma2]

Lokalni audio sejem v Vietnamu( 26/27/04-2008), kjer si radovedneži ogledujejo Kuzma Stabi XL gramofon :

[kuzma2]

Na prijetnem druženju sem 14.5.08 predstavil novo ročico 4Point nekaterim audio novinarjem v GB:
Roy Gregory( HIFI+)
Steve Harris( HIFI NEWS)
Alan Sircom( HIFI CHOICE)

M. Fremer je ponovno ocenil mali gramofon Stabi SD( za dve ročici) z ročico Stogi S toda z dodanim zunanjim napajanjem in dejal:

"the sound of this little pipe bomb is spatially rock solid, and dynamicaly about the best under 5000 USD table I can think of."

[kuzma2]

Uradno bomo začeli prodajati( in dobavljati) ročico 4Point Kuzma distributerjem s 15.7.2008. Tisti, najbolj neučakani v Sloveniji, pa jih bodo morali počakati za čas po dopustih, nekje okrog 15.8.2008.

1.7.08 je datum, ko smo začeli dobavljati prve nove ročice:

4Point je( ef. d.280 mm- 11 col) ročica o kateri smo že nekaj pisali od njene prve predstavitve Januarja na CES 08 v Vegasu.

Ročica Stogi Ref 313 VTA ima enak tip montaže in VTA stolp. Toda v osnovi je to podaljšana verzija Stogi Ref ročice in sicer je ef. dolžina 313 mm ( 12.3 cole). Tisti, ki so primerjali zvok standardne Stogi Ref ( 230mm) ter njeno daljo verzijo, se strinjajo- večja dolžina je zelo pomembna za njenje zvočne odlike. Ima pa še dve lastnosti. Zaradi same konstrukcije se montira na obstoječo razdaljo 212 mm, kar je enako kot za Stogi ali Stogi Ref ročice. Poleg tega, pa ima še enak način zamenjave headshella kot 4Point ročica. Sama masa ročice je 1.7 kg.

Kar se pa tiče vpliva VTA pa tole: če imate resen avdio sistem, se bo občutno poznalo na zvoku, če le tega spremenite za 0.1 mm- seveda tedaj ko ste blizu optimalnemu.


Stogi Ref 313VTA

[kuzma2]

Na dvostranskem testu v reviji HIFI+ -UK, Roy Gregory piše:

O 12 in?ni ro?ici Stogi Ref 313VTA: "
What was already an excellent arm now boasts a more lucid and communicative quality, making music more involving, more natural and easier to listen to;All very good things."

O novem napajanju za Stabi XL 4:
"Performance take on spacious,unforced quality that adds significantly to their expressive range, allowing more room for the musicians, making interpretation much clener, making more sense of music picture."

O Kuzma ebenovinastem klampu:
"Tonal colors are more natural, especially the decay and also the spacing of the notes. As a result, phrasing and the expressive shape that players and singers put into their performance are far more aparent and effective."

Ter zaklju?uje:
"Collectively, the new power suply and record weight lift the Stabi XL4's performance another, significant notch, safeguarding its position in the face of renewed competition."

Vsem želim prijetne poletne počitnice.

Kot veste obstoja v programu Kuzma sklop odjemnih doz narejenih na Japonskem s strani firme ZYX za nas in sicer model KC1,2,3,4. Kuzma KC 4 je najboljši standardni model firme ZYX R1000 AIRY 3S.

Toda model Kuzma KC 5 je nekaj posebnega, ki uradno sicer še ne obstoja. Odlikuje ga zopet diamantni nosilec diamantne igle ter nov tip navitja tuljav 4D. Za zmanjšanje vibracij ima safirno ploščo pri kontakih iz čistega zlata in svojstveno konstrukcijo ohišja, ki je plastično.
Prvi slišni testi so navkljub neuigrani odjemni dozi navdušujoči. Cena, če veste ceno ZYX Sigme, lahko le povem, da je še dražja, a po moje najboljša glava na svetu.

Naslov testa ro?ice 4Point v HIFI+ je:


"A new Dawn"

v kateri v uvodu R. Gregory pravi, da nekatere firme samo kopirajo izdelke, nekatere pa imajo nove originalne ideje, ki vodiju k razvoju ?im boljše reprodukcije glasbe.

kmalu bo na razpolago test v "pdfju"
Za pokušino par citatov:

"This easily attainable geometrical precision is reflected in the quality and consistency of the sound, each cartridge used sounding more like itself than is usually the case."

"The first thing that strikes you about this arm is its sheer vivacity- quickly followed by its astonishinh transparency, especially at low frequencies. I've never heard a pivoted arm that can image like this-and I've never heard any arm that does bass the way the 4POINT does."

"That low frequency transparency contributes directly to the palable acoustics conjured by the 4POINT. That and the arm's phenomenal stabilty;images simply don't wander or shimmer the way they do with other arms-effects that we are so used to that you only notice them once they're banished-...."

"That stability gives images and instruments a real presence that underpins the explosive dynamic potential of the 4POINT."

"The Kuzma is all those things when it needs to be, but it is poised, delicate and controled too."

"Of course, what I should have been impressed by was the fact that for the first time the 4POINT had allowed the music to transcend mere technique, the unfettered dynamics, lucid phrasing, wide yet coherent bandwidh and absence of grain or edge finally allowing the performance to escape the grooves."

"Just don't get spooked when you realize that Ella really IS in the room!"

Test je na petih straneh!

PS: po spominu so bili tam poleg novinarjev seveda še predstavniki firm Zanden, Nordost,Crystal Cable, Kef, Wilson-Benesch,Thorens,... ki so prejeli priznanja za svoje izdelke.

AWARDS ISSUE 60
KUZMA 4POINT TONEARM
PRODUCT OF THE YEAR
LEGACY
2008
It’s not often a genuinely innovative tonearm appears; it’s not often that a tonearm
redefi nes our expectations of record replay. For the two things to happen
simultaneously is almost unheard of, yet that’s exactly what the Kuzma 4POINT
has achieved. A carefully considered amalgamation of all that’s great and good in
existing, pivoted designs, combined with Kuzma’s own innovative, hybrid bearing
design. The Kuzma arms have never been short on practicality or the ability to
optimize cartridge geometry, but the 4POINT takes that to new levels, adding
cartridge interchangability and independent horizontal and vertical damping to
the company’s superb VTA adjuster and the best azimuth adjustment out there.
But it’s listening with the 4POINT that makes you realize just how special it
is. With improvements in the low-frequency performance of the best modern
loudspeaker systems threatening to expose a lack of tone and shape to
analogue’s nether regions, the latest Kuzma arm steps forward with the best
control of pace, defi nition, texture and bass transparency that we’ve experienced,
a quality that underpins the performance as a whole, injecting presence, life and
energy into the beautifully stable and richly shaded soundstage. Big and bold,
with tremendous impact when called for, the 4POINT does small and intimate too.
A consummate musical all-rounder, the Kuzma signifi cantly raises the analogue
bar; the resulting scrabble to overhaul it is a delicious prospect indeed!
