I just returned from an European vacation visiting the Christmas markets along the Rhine River. Our last stop was in Basel (Switzerland) where my wife and I visited Florian.

After a very nice lunch at the Brasserie Troi Roi, Florian drove us around town. We had the opportunity to visit his home and the audio showroom. His home is a contemporary architecture setup in a beautiful country setting outside of Basel.

We spent several hours enjoying the new and magnificent Atriums. And, yes, these speakers are just amazing. We also had a chance to talk about the thought behind this statement speaker. I knew the Atriums are large but was not prepared for the scale (for perspective of scale, my wife is 5’8” and you can see how much taller the Atriums are) - I am attaching a few photos so the showroom and gear.

The Atriums will be at the Florida show in February - can’t wait to hear them again.

Lastly, thank you to Florian for his hospitality. We enjoyed seeing him, meeting his puppy Daisy and an afternoon of friendship and music.

The picture of you and your wife giving us the perspective of the Atrium’s scale is awesome! The definition of a statement!

Thx Craig! Actually, that’s my wife and opposite is Florian; I took the photo.

Due to popular demand, LOL, some pictures of the room, my new Kronos Perpetual and of course.... Daisy

The Kronos looks great! And, Daisy is just a great puppy.
 
Amazing photos! The Atrium’s are huge. I can only imagine the height, width and depth of their soundstage. Thanks for posting and glad you had a nice trip. Are you considering a move to Clarisys?

Great to see you back Ken! How’s life in Colorado?

The Clarysis team is really doing a great job. If I was starting over, Clarysis would definitely be top of mind. For me, the Studio Plus are the sweet spot of the line.

For my room, the Studio Plus or something above that but not quite the Auditoriums.

However, my MBLs continue to play blissfully.
