Sound system

Bespoke Living Voice four-way horn-loaded satellites with 15-inch midbass and two large bespoke Living Voice bass cabinets, overseen by Kevin Scott. Atelier du Triode 300B (about 30 W Class A) on the horns; a pair of custom 500 W MOSFET amps on the bass. Sources: Isonoe-modified Technics 1200s with AT-XP7 through an Isonoe rotary; Kuzma Stabi XL-series album deck with Audio-Technica ART1000; Tascam DA-3000, Revox B77, Studer and Pioneer CDJ-2000NXS2 also on the roster. Café fill is Apart Mask 6T with REVAMP4120T.

Custom here is total: horn satellites and bass cabinets built for the room, valve watts where efficiency allows, MOSFET watts where excursion demands it. That split is why Kings Cross can play both an album club and a later social floor from one architecture.

About the sound system

How the system serves the room

At Spiritland, the equipment record identifies Living Voice Bespoke four-way horn-loaded satellites with 15-inch midbass. A horn-based approach can provide useful dynamic headroom, but aiming the speakers and balancing direct sound against room reflections remain central to shared listening.

The listed Isonoe Model unspecified handles the mixing/control role. Consistent source levels help preserve headroom through the rest of the chain. Placement, room acoustics and operating level still determine the result. Published information does not establish all amplifier assignments, processing settings or the reasons behind the original purchase.

Technical interpretation based on the documented equipment; selection motives and measured in-room performance are not confirmed.
