Browse this venue’s gear ↗Fully analogue Kreuzberg chain: Klipsch Cornwall IV, owner-built and upgraded Elekit TU-8600S 300B single-ended kit, modified Technics MK2 with Nagaoka MP110, Analog Relax lead wires and Shelter headshell, Resør 2525FX discrete Class A rotary. Cornwall IV sensitivity and a 300B single-ended kit are a textbook small-room pairing — tone and presence at natural-wine volume. The Resør rotary keeps the whole path discrete analogue. Owner upgrades on the Elekit are part of the room’s identity.

About the sound system
How the system serves the room
At Unkompress, the equipment record identifies Klipsch Cornwall IV. The loudspeakers set the starting point for coverage and placement. A plausible reason to choose a dedicated hi-fi installation here is to give records a clear presence without relying on background-music speakers alone.
The listed Resør 2525FX discrete Class A 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.
