Hi all,
on the 9th of april, 2009, I and a friend spent an evening in Cochin with Suresh (Jacob George) listening to the latest iteration of his RETHM loudspeakers (full range Lowther). It was a magical evening!
I had last listened to these speakers in 1999. It was a short session, with Stevie Ray Vaughan's CD spinning (Tin Pan Alley). I clearly remember the ability (of those speakers) to create a 'live" soundstage - I almost felt the singer's spit on my face! When i was leaving I wondered aloud if I could afford to buy the speakers - Suresh had a simple solution - "Sell your car", he said to me!
This time around, the audition started with the same CD and the magic was re-created! This was a long session and i was sorry when it ended. The single full range lowthers have been bolstered in the bass segment by a custom built subwoofer designed and implemented in house by Suresh
The tracks included Diana Krall's "Live in Paris", Neil Diamond's "Gold",
David Coverdale, Pink Floyd, and ended with Devdas. This last, Suresh uses as a test CD.
Yes, I will sell my car, if necessary, to buy the Rethms!
