Hello everybody, I am Dutch and living in Indonesia for about 3 years now.

In the Netherlands I had a very nice system containing Sun Audio SVC-500 preamp, SV-2A3PE power amps, CEC player, Metrum Pavane DAC and a wonderful pair of Musical Affairs Grand Crescendo speakers (with 12 inch Phy-HP units). Sadly we cannot bring the system to Indonesia so I sold everything to a good audio friend.

But a life without music is no life, so I bought a Devialet and takes it in my suitcase to Indonesia. I also bought a 47Labs Cd player and DAC (4715/4716) and decided to buy a pair of speakers in Indonesia.

On the yearly Highend event (PIHEAC) in Jakarta I met Rudy Gunawan from Aurel Bryan. He designed his own broadband units and his demo was excellent. He also talks about a new Field-coil unit, which will be available shortly after the PIHEAC. This is a 8 inch unit and he also designed the power unit for the Field-coil. I immediately ordered a pair and received a few months later.

After listening for some months, I decided to sell my Devialet and I ordered by in the Netherlands a Tektron tube-amp. With 6550 power tubes, but you can change them to KT-88. I did that and changed them to KR-Audio KT-88 which is maybe the best KT-88 I know. The Tektron was send to Indonesia and I am an happy listener. For the small money I use for this set, it sounds wonderful! The whole set costs me less than 5000 USD.

The next thing is to upgrade all terminals on the speakers, and to make my own cables. I had a nice design developed by Cees Pel, a great hifi developer in the Netherlands. It contains good copper, paper, cotton and nice connectors. Hopefully everything is made July 2020.
