The Meridian Prime/PSU and Focal Stellia can turn the proverbial Sow’s Ear into a Silk Purse.
Take, for example, Pat Metheny’s ‘One Quiet Night’ album. It’s entirely focussed on his playing Acoustic Guitar, recorded at 16/44. Played via Tidal or Qobuz, it’s a quality recording that could easily be mistaken for the best 24/192 offering.
What sounds quite ordinary and nothing special via Focal Celestee becomes magically emotional and sublime via Focal Stellia. The varied resonance and tonality of each and every string being played effortlessly transforms your listening space into that of the recoding studio - with the listener sat right beside the musician.
