Hello everyone - Paul Jenkins here, and I sincerely hope you're doing well and are safe and healthy.
If you've been looking for a distraction, and listening to more music and/or watching more TV and movies, maybe you've have been considering an upgrade to your system. If so, know that you're welcome to contact me anytime to discuss your options and get my recommendations. I truly love talking "gear" and helping people achieve better performance from their components for greater enjoyment.
We're staying busy, and to keep you in the loop of the goings-on at Elevation Sight and Sound, I've outlined a few notable topics of interest.

Abyss Diana v2 Luxury Headphones | | |
Headphones and Headphone Amp Combos
Remember when you first expanded your awareness of great audio sound through headphones? It's time to recapture that feeling...
Sometimes it's nice to escape to your music with headphones, without worrying about who you might disturb, or get distracted by surrounding noises. And, some of your favorite recordings can sound amazing through headphones and the right headphone amp.
We're huge fans of the high-end luxury Abyss Headphones, and in this article, I've put together a comprehensive list of the Abyss line AND FIVE different headphone amps to pair them with.

Eleven Audio Headphone Amp Designed for Abyss Headphones | | |
Featured Product: Kii Three Speakers - A Game-Changer | |
I continue to be amazed by the Kii Three speakers, and the accompanying BXT bass modules.
This game-changing speaker brand incorporates the amplifier section within the speaker. As Kal Rubinson wrote when he reviewed the Stereophile 2017 Product of the Year in the September 2017 issue:
"...almost everything about Kii Audio's Three loudspeaker is a refreshing splash of cool water." (Read full review here)
This compact DSP-Controlled Full-Range Speaker allows you to simply connect your analog source, CD player/drive, server, streamer, TV or set top box to enjoy a breathtakingly audiophile full-range system in a stunningly small footprint.
Usually, "all in one" products aren't amazing in any one area - but these are a jaw-dropping exception.
I consider these to be a "Swiss-Army knife" of audio, since these speakers are all you need. No amp, preamp, CD player...

Kii THREE with BXT System - City Teal Matte (many colors available) | | |
The Kii Speakers are designed for home systems, as well as recording studio references. I recently visited a prominent mastering engineer who's building a studio up here in the mountains, and after installing these Kii THREE's, I can tell you that I was absolutely blown away by their accuracy, soundstaging dimension, and absolute command of the music that demonstrated both power and delicacy unlike anything I've heard before. A must hear.
See: www.kiiaudio.com to read up on them. Very cool “game-changing” speakers.

Dali KATCH Bluetooth Speaker | |
You might think Bluetooth speakers aren't worthy, but this little Dali KATCH speaker could well change your mind.
DALI KATCH is a battery powered Bluetooth speaker. Wrapped in an elegantly rounded solid housing, the specially developed drivers deliver the audio signal from the internal digital amplifier. Easily connectable via Bluetooth, and the possibility to enjoy the improved audio quality of Apt-X if supported. The DALI KATCH also support analogue input via mini-jack. Knowing that you will bring you DALI KATCH on the road we included a USB charge output to keep you phone or tablet charged while you rock your beats. For $449, it's a surprisingly big sound from a little profile, with drivers on both sides.
