époustouflé”, “van mijn sokken geblazen”, literally blown away by this unique sound experience: this purity, power and intimacy produced by these Pearl Acoustic speakers…. I never heard such a perfect sound before. It was a tele-portation in the recording studios of Oscar Peterson, Birdy, Pieter Wispelwey, Marc Knofler. My eyes shut, I really thought I was there, with them! As soon as I opened my eyes again… the dream wasn’t over: I could still see and listen to the Pearl Acoustic beauties.
