yeah,it makes technical sense but why the annoying music? I'm thinking '50's hard bop to really hear what the set-up can do.

@ct5006360

The artist is Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan who died in 1997.

The song is Dum Mast Qalandar (one of his many popular songs so it's usually available in just one album, i.e, you can get it in his collected works/greatest hits).

@ct5006360

Music style/genre is Qawwali sung in urdu. This genre is particularly popular in India & Pakistan.

He was (still is considered) to be one of the best Qawwali singers from Pakistan. He also released (while alive) albums in collaboration with various artist like Bruce Springsteen (Dead Man Walking soundtrack), Peter Gabriel etc...

amazing!!! what sound quality its soo real. Only half a watt? think what would happen if they were driven by 'NAD' watts you would have some serious sound. Not suggesting hooking them up to pair of NAD 2200PE power amps though haha
