3: A Deep Dive Interview with Andrew Jones, The Speaker Designer Who’s Breaking The Rules of the Audiophile Industry

Summary: Today’s show is a real treat.  We got to sit down with Andrew Jones (Of TAD / Pioneer Fame) of ELAC.  We’d first heard of Andrew a couple years ago when he made these insanely affordable Elac Debut B6 Speakers (See Episode 1 for A Review of these $250 marvels) and he continues to break new ground with the new Elac Adante ($2500, available mid-2017).  Andrew’s attention to detail and unwillingness to compromise much in the way of sound, despite low cost, is what has propelled him to “guru” status in the Audiophile world.<br> Gear Guide:<br> <br> * 17:40 – <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0047K3X1M/?tag=lookjar-20" target="_blank">KEF Q100 Bookshelf Speakers</a><br> * 17:52 – <a href="http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Home/Speakers/TAD+Speakers/Reference+One" target="_blank">TAD Reference One Speakers</a><br> * 28:30 – <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-SP-BS22-LR-Designed-Bookshelf-Loudspeakers/dp/B008NCD2LG" target="_blank">Pioneer SP-BS22 Speakers</a><br> * 31:40 – <a href="http://amazon.com/dp/B014GSEQ06/?tag=lookjar-20" target="_blank">ELAC Debut B6 Speakers</a><br> * 37:50 – <a href="http://elac.com/product-category/adante/" target="_blank">ELAC Adante Series Speakers</a><br> <br> Connect with us:<br> <br> <a href="http://instagram.com/beginneraudiophile" target="_blank">Instagram</a><br> <a href="http://beginneraudiophile.com" target="_blank">Website</a><br> <a href="http://kit.com/beginneraudiophile" target="_blank">Kit.com</a><br> <a href="mailto:beginneraudiophile@gmail.com" target="_blank">Email</a><br> <br>
