Thank you for interviewing Advance Paris. It,s a very interesting and promising French brand which is largely unknown here in North America unfortunately!

[@oneemotiva4975]

Hi Jay, What do you think about Advance Paris? What would you compare it too in sound of quality build> May want to get some to test. Thank you

[@khoi83]

@@oneemotiva4975 they have the High Bias function which is pretty cool!

[@oneemotiva4975]

Thank you Jay, hope you are well. I will try to get in touch and get one of their Pre-amp and amps.

[@oneemotiva4975]

I may look hen IN My home town of Nice in France, maybe I can get it there? so would need speakers, do you think the Arendal 1723 THX would do or any other brand?

[@toddt5562]

Thanks Jay! Impressive production value, very professional video. Many other KZbinrs should take note of what quality output looks like.

[@Jayiyagi]

thank you! it was a lot of work but it was great to film the insights from these manufacturers

[@MotownAudio]

I own the A12 absolutely incredible

[@rocko6746]

Fantastic! The manufacturer interviews hearing the how and why is really nice. It will all come together when you give your take away on the different rooms.

[@Bass_therapy_]

Sheesh getting that quality at a show is insane, it was great meeting you man, you’re awesome.

[@taidee]

I'm loving this interviews AXPONA series, thank you Jay.

[@Jayiyagi]

Thank you. It was a last minute idea but I thought sharing the insight I hear at shows would be a great idea.

[@suwatt6019]

Hiro was such a fascinating gentleman to listen to, I've not heard Esoteric on my journey but they are on my radar now! Appreciate that BIG component ideology.

[@lukerestlessstudios]

I’m loving the aesthetic of the Amphion speakers.

[@woodyssoundup]

Fantastic coverage of some really great products!

[@t0nyxgq]

Very professional production. I think Jay can also be a camera review channel if he wants to because he certainly has enough gear.

[@GT-Diaries]

A+ Video and Audio production

[@carminedesanto6746]

Jay, thanks for this video. I just got my first Denafrips DAC the new Ares 12-1 …and I’m still stunned at what it’s doing to my music 🥲 Advanced Paris ..I’ve got the catalog from the last Toronto Audiofest..their gear is amazing. Oh, the first time I actually got to see the Esoteric stuff up close (American Sound) ..love and heart break all at once. Great video 👍👍

[@viencarlodiego8842]

Jay please review the a12 classic pretty pleaseeeeee

[@jeromelester8]

PMC and Amphion are typical manufactures for professional audio equipment (studio monitors). It's great to see Esoteric products match up well with those brands. I'm a huge fan of Esoteric by the way.

[@tylerflores4761]

Thanks for the link!!

[@techsamurai11]

Advance Paris is killing it - maybe they can make an AVR.

[@kjaudio1]

There was a time when I owned both the Amphion Krypton 2 and PMC MB2 XBD SE at the same time. Brilliant loudspeakers both.

[@vicnataly]

Very nice presentation. Advance Paris is a very versatile amp but unfortunately very expensive. I definitely want such an amplifier. In another life maybe.

[@gmkrtchyan]

Is €2k really considered to be very expensive for such an amp?

[@vicnataly]

@gmkrtchyan 2000k is the price of a car. And I wonder what this machine does besides collect dust on it. 2000k madness

[@adsph]

That room was great sounding.

[@khoi83]

I have one white Advance Paris Smart BX1! Pretty cool!

[@SuperMcgenius]

There seems to a few of these videos that are not reviews, but promotion spots.

[@GentielioGaming]

It is true, a low crossover point is better for a natural sound to the ears. I heard a pair of older Dynaudio speakers that have done that and it's apperent. Not all Dynaudios do this configuration, why not??

[@Jayiyagi]

from what I know it is a trade off. You can choose to cross-over lower if the tweeter is capable and waveguides and such helps BUT just because it can play lower doesn't mean that it is the most optimal range for the tweeter. Every tweeter has an optimal range it operates on before distortion numbers rise higher, ideally you want to cross over 2 octaves before or after that point, so you either have to choose higher or lower crossover point based on other parameters.

[@frankgeeraerts6243]

The simple circuit is the best..........anyway the simple circuit does the least damage if well designed ...about power supply I agree with what HIRO said.

[@CarlVanDoren61]

[@raphaelmeillat8527]

Feels like a long infomercial! Love audio gear but without tough questions from you directly, I don't see the point. Sorry for the blunt feedback. As far as tough questions go, I'd love to know how come reputable audio gear manufacturers can't seem to be able to build reliable apps for instance?

[@net_news]

Jay your channel is becoming too commercial, please go back to the roots

[@Jayiyagi]

This is a show coverage presentation showcasing new and upcoming products. When I go to these shows, I get insight by talking to manufacturers and reps. I thought it would provide value to film it at a high level for my viewers. I understand how it can come across as a commercial. Will be back to reviewing soon after these show coverages :) thank you

[@saint6563]

LOL He's at the largest audio show in the nation. Of course it's going to be "commercial" & informative. These guys aren't stopping by his place everyday!

[@oohtob6685]

I'll second that lol.

[@NOWHERESQ]

Roots eh. Isn't Jay formerly a hifi gear sales person?

[@Jayiyagi]

@@NOWHERESQ yes formerly, I used to work for a dealer few years back. Now I currently work as a neuroscientist

[@NicoRas-e9m]

What a lot of crap, big boards sone better. The bigger the board the longer the track the more parasitic components are added. Components have no timbre also not the nonsense non-engineers speak.
