Loiminchay Audio, manufacturers of hand-crafted luxurious, extreme performance, limited-edition loudspeakers for connoisseurs, features their entire line-up at this year's CES; the stand-mounted Degas, the floorstanding Chagall, and the hybrid Kandinsky. These speaker systems are artist inspired and artisan crafted for a unique and exceptional appearance and a totally remarkable musical experience. They’re designed in New York by owner Patrick Chu and hand made by dedicated teams in his atelier in China. Each heavily-braced enclosure is painstakingly crafted, layer by layer, from beautifully formed Birch MultiPly laminate resulting in a sensually shaped, extremely nonresonant structure. The enclosures are bored out then finished inside and out with fully sixteen coats of the finest hand-polished lacquer for a lustrous cabinet so finely sealed that no air bubbles remain to leak internal pressurized air. Loiminchay employ three people just to route the interior and driver holes, and even the baffles are hand-shaped in the laminate during fabrication. “We go a few steps beyond with luxurious hand-built, hand-lacquered cabinets and really high-quality drivers,” explains Patrick. “We buy wood by the batch and store it in a temperature and humidity-controlled warehouse. One lot makes five pair of speakers, so they’re all perfectly consistent, all hand-sanded and polished between their 16 coats.” The Degas and Chagall speakers feature the new Accuton 1.2-inch diamond tweeter and their 6.5-inch ceramic cone midrange driver with Neodymium magnets. The Chagall adds an 8-inch Accuton ceramic cone woofer, and the Kandinsky has 10- and 12-inch woofers plus a custom 2-inch beryllium high-compression driver. These are accompanied by the finest of parts: Mundorf capacitors from Germany, Clarity capacitors from North Wales in the UK, and custom-specified vdH silver conductors. Being There Loiminchay speakers reproduce the precise to the passionate: Glenn Gould caressing his master’s voice or Vladimir Horowitz in full expressive flight. Loiminchay effortlessly takes you to the very essence of the music.
