Exciting...

Now on demonstration with distributors..

The amazing FM 155-MKII R is completely

new but keeps the time honoured design

that made the "1" series such a success.

The FM 155-MKII R outperforms anything

up to 300 % its cost.

"Delivery terms: 443 days..."

Delivery terms for quality parts are increasing. But: 443 days really is a record...

This is the delivery term quoted for one important part where only a single original manufacturer exists. Yes , there is a China made copy of course (for a fourth of the price - and they are available ex stock... (the question is - why???).

No way would we endanger the performance of our units...

We still have some originals of this part on stock, but for the upcoming series we have to bite the 443 days bullet...

Correspondingly, once those units that are currently in pretest and in the burn-in have been delivered, a few FMA units will have up to 16 months of delivery terms .

The backorder situation is partly due to a strong order influx for the same FMA products and partly because of the difficulty to obtain top quality parts within reasonable delivery terms.

Fortunately, most FMA units are are available within 2 - 5 months.

When the competition cannot compete...

Judging by the number of sabotage attempts, the Munich exhibition was quite a success...

From trying to stick wood pieces into an FM 1811 amplifier to block cooling fans (well they are not where that Sir thought they are...) to kicking and standing on the multi-core connectors (they are robust...), from trying to fool with the amplifier level controls (on the system that was not in use at that moment) and believing it will not be seen to primitive efforts to dis-adjust system settings, there were plenty of attempts.

Not always did our staff interfere. Instead the persons were observed. Astonishingly, often they could be traced to work for another exhibitor...

Some must be quite desperate; instead of competing with quality and ideas, sabotage is their "solution"...

But they could not prevent the ....

..... Beautiful music in Munich

On occasion of the 45th anniversary of FM ACOUSTICS, the new XS-IC and XS-IIIC systems were presented at the Hifideluxe show. The brand new FM 108-MKII powered the XS-IIIC in true bi-amplification mode.

In every session the audience were awed by the incredibly realistic performance of the entire system.

Not only the music system astonished...

It was indeed a pleasure to experience Dutch artists, Elles Springs and Mark De Grouw enjoying a great success. In a purely acoustic setting they mesmerized the audience with their musical poems.
