Howie Bro ... have been living with the Coltrane 2 for the past 4 months and quite a ride it has been . Is not the retail closer to 95k rather than the 80k that you mentioned ? If you do take the plunge do try the upgrade option, i.e the internal cabling from Jorma No.1 to Jorma Prime. Pretty worthwhile in my set up.

May i ask what the rest of your system is? Would love to hear more about the Coltranes! Thanks Howie |
Howie ... My rig is digital only . Meredian 808.2 . Vitus pre- power , Nordost Thor ,Finite Elemente Stand , Stillpoint CP stands and SS Ultras. Jorma Prime I/C 's , PC's , Jorma Origo S/C. In the process of setting up a computer front end and am awaiting delivery of my Vitus DAC.
The C2 is all about speed , coherence and purity of tone . The thing I quite enjoy about it :music:is that the resolution is spread evenly across the spectrum .The deep bass being nearly as detailed as the mids and highs. It does take quite a while to come into it's own from new . Demanding of continuity in your signal chain it will pounce on any sloth or discontinuity in set-up . The down firing port how-ever helps in it not being as difficult to set up in terms of room interaction. They are quite an easy load and should be a good match with your Ongaku . Different from the SF house sound, but am sure a pairing you would be satisfied with for quite some time to come. Cheers !:music: |
