TAD Does Amp and Source Component

By Mark Fleischmann • Posted: Jan 8, 2010

TAD, already one of our favorite speaker manufacturers, now offers both a mono-block amp and a SACD player cum DAC, both priced at $26,500. Stereo amp and preamp are on the drawing board. The final version of the Compact Reference speaker is now shipping for $37,000/pair. A demo with female vocal and piano was startling in its directness, marred only slightly by the sight of the chandelier gently swinging, apparently as a result of a subwoofer on the floor above.

I agree that everything sounded good, but the price was $26,500 I believe. Ouch!

I thought that was a little weird at the time. You're right. Correction made, and thanks.
