In Sheep's Clothing

The room

In Sheep’s Clothing connects a Los Angeles hi-fi music platform with a history of dedicated listening spaces. Its original Arts District bar and later NeueHouse residency explored different systems, making its story as much about changing rooms and equipment as a continuing devotion to records.

The Arts District installation paired Klipsch horns with vintage-style analogue playback; the 2021 residency took a different route through Graham monitors and EAR electronics. These are chapters in the project’s history, rather than a single permanent installation.

The original Arts District bar used Klipschorn AK6 mains and modified Heresy speakers at the bar. Audio Note Jinro Shochu and M5 electronics served the main installation, with a McIntosh 6100 also in the system. Two Garrard 301s carried 12-inch Schick arms in Vinylista plinths, alongside a Condesa rotary mixer.

The 2021 NeueHouse residency used a different combination: Graham LS5/8 monitors with EAR 509 monoblocks and a 912 linestage/phono stage. These are separate historical installations, each with its own speaker and amplifier pairing.
