The High End at Totally Wired
Only components that are so unarguably good and free of compromise, that they elicit a positive response from almost all who critically listen can be considered ‘High End’. It’s about performance that closely approaches the ideal, that is clearly and demonstrably better than the majority of ordinary consumer products. You should also note that while prices often reflect the huge research, development and manufacturing effort that goes into many High End products, there are gems of design that stand out, being beneficiaries of heritage, inspiration and sometimes even the economies of scale.

We're thrilled to be able to bring you the NuPrime products. As longtime NuForce enthusiasts it was only natural for us to contact Jason Lim and ask if we could represent his new enterprise in New Zealand - previously we'd had to operate via a distributor company which was both inefficient and costly. Now the NuPrime range comes to us directly and we've been tasked to do the best possible job for you, not just in New Zealand, but also to help establish NuPrime in Australia. An offshoot of the NuForce brand, NuPrime is a new and independent company whose purpose is to carry on in the celebrated tradition of the NuForce high-end product line. For instance the NuPrime IDA-16 delivers more sound quality, power and sophistication than any other DAC and amplifier combination, digital or analogue we've heard regardless of cost.
You'll find that what makes the new Monitor Audio Gold GX range so special is a ribbon. Not just your everyday ribbon however but an ultra-thin sandwich of ceramic coated aluminium magnesium alloy suspended in a powerful transverse magnetic field of high energy NeFeB rare earth magnets. This is the Monitor Audio Ribbon transducer.What this translates to is immediately apparent when you listen to any model in the GX series - these speakers really sing and reproduce high frequencies in a way that leaves most other designs sounding flat footed.
