Lotus Hifi

Lotus Hifi Agents for Soulnote, Rockport, Brinkmann, Vitus, HifiStay, Shunyata and many more. A warm welcome to Lotus Hifi. My Name is Richard Morris.

Exquisite Highend Audio, Lotus Hifi are the Exclusive UK retailer for Tidal Audio, JMF Audio, Joseph Loudspeakers, Wadax Reference, Thrax Audio, Hemingway and Tara Labs. I have been a devout audiophile since the late1980’s when I used to sell all the major British brands from a specialist dealership in the southwest of London. I believe home audio should transcend any sense of Hifi and electronics

and journey you straight to a real and sensory world of emotion. Here at Lotus I have built a portfolio of highend products which integrate beautifully into this philosophy. Come for a listen, you won't be disappointed.

A good system often gets used almost every day for several hours at a time. It encourages profound listening sessions and deep exploration into more and more music. Ultimately, it will teach you things too, about music and maybe even about yourself. But it often also prompts further system development, not because the system was previously unfinished and lacking, but simply because this is our hobby and when its right, its so damm enjoyable ...

Last week this magnificent hybrid Thrax/Rockport system in its professionally treated listening room, was lavished with a set of TIDAL Ferios mono amplifiers. After your own home, a setup such as this arguably delivers more smiles per pound than almost anything else that money can buy.

The very first lucky owner of TIDAL Piano Classics takes delivery. True TIDAL performance - all of the purity and invisibility the brand is renowned for - is now within reach of a far wider circle of music lovers than ever before. The £50,000 floorstander priced at £28,500.

Why part exchange if you really don't have to ? Gems from yesterday that you loved so much. The astonishing £6900 Soulnote A2 V2 Integrated amplifier just took this cute little office system totally supersonic. The Saturn Dac also blew me away, what a thing.

There comes a point where you no longer need to wax lyrical about how good things are. At Lotus, the mere fact of something being included in my shop already communicates much. That is what customers have come to expect from us and what we place in our portfolio can even influence other dealers both at home and overseas.

That being said, the beautiful new Piano Classic loudspeaker from Tidal Audio invites me to break that rule.

There's no easy way of saying this elegantly but here goes. If these speakers were priced at £50,000, nothing that has ever passed through these walls would exceed their performance up to that same price point. They would be a profoundly competitive and compelling product, even when judged against other Tidal Audio speakers in the range. But here's the twist .... they aren't £50,000 but cost just £28,500.

As a dealer it's difficult to put into words what this really means and how breathtaking they truly sound. In a phrase, a veritable gift to the industry. Please simply come for a listen at your leisure and find out everything for yourself with your own ears.

They will be playing here at Lotus for all of September and October. They will be available to hear at the forthcoming Stereonet HiFi show at Heathrow 12-13th September, and then will be the subject at a Lotus weekend event in early October (dates to be announced). Available to purchase as of now from Lotus Hifi and Satori HiFi

As the most important component in any system, the Classic literally breathes new power into my shop and what we can do for customers. We don’t necessarily need a statement system either to unlock what these speakers can do. They will work their magic with almost anything. The Piano Classic doesn’t simply join the Lotus portfolio ... it changes it.

The Thrax Lyra are truly one of my favourites, particularly when adorned with the Hades low-frequency stands. They changed the way I thought about loudspeakers at this price point, forcing me to rethink my recipes and recommendations for everything this side of a Rockport Atria.

And now, waiting in the wings, we have something new from TIDAL Audio GmbH. No less instructive, no less dazzling ... something that may well radically change my shop all over again.

More soon.

Sound quality is always uppermost, but what’s even more important is the way people actually live, maximising the time one can enjoy music, day to day, hour to hour. Sometimes a dedicated rack simply isn’t possible. A radiator or window can’t be moved, there’s no more room for another box, and that fancy network switch that would surely finish the system off has nowhere to go.

Here we have a beautiful Lotus system situated in the customer’s main living and dining area. For much of the time, the music here is simply part of everyday life, accompanying people as they go about their day. The challenge, therefore, is to integrate the system beautifully and inconspicuously into the space, while extracting the very best possible sound from the limitations at hand, and paying little or no penalty for the compromises of the brief.

Crucially, that means remarkable performance from a relatively small number of boxes, ingenious solutions for equipment isolation, and the creation of a truly gigantic soundstage with fabulous off-axis performance. Because the best seat in the house is sometimes simply wherever life happens to take you.

Rockport, Thrax, Hemingway, Soulnote, Dela, Shunyata. Almost everything we sell can be mixed and matched as your heart leads you. This is because everything has the same fundamental philosophy, to become invisible.
