Choice is the connoisseur’s luxury. Ciamara takes that to the next level by selecting and modifying the most choice components in the world of fine sound. Combined with the best service in the business and supported by world-class engineering, Ciamara is the trusted leader in high end audio. Auditions and consultations by appointment—to ensure you receive the one-on-one attention you deserve.
The early days of scratchy, thin-sounding MP3s have given way to higher bandwidth formats. Digital files are being released in better-than-CD formats now, such as high resolution PCM (pulse code modulation) and DSD (direct stream digital). Although these formats are still a minority of commercially downloadable formats, more and more studios are recording to these formats. Over time, we expect them to gain widespread popularity.
As file storage becomes cheaper and cheaper, and as bandwidth for downloading and streaming increases, it will be possible to offer high definition formats with the same ease as compressed formats. The pendulum is swinging clearly towards high fidelity sound again, and to enjoy it, high end stereo equipment again will become a necessity.
A good stereo system consists of well-designed components, working together synergistically to reproduce music with fidelity, nuance, dynamic range, tangible detail and resolution. A pair of ear buds on a noisy subway can’t achieve this. A high end stereo system requires loudspeakers like the TAD Reference One loudspeakers, featured at the New York Audio Show earlier this month. Superb amplification and digital-to-analog conversion from manufacturers like Ayre Acoustics, Berkeley Audio Design, Bricasti, EMM Labs, Viola Audio Labs and Weiss Engineering are critically important.
