Prime examples of beautiful industrial design loudspeaker: Stenheim REFERENCE is part of the CEPro top ten.
After spending much of the summer in Asia, Stenheim returns to the USA in October to be present at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in Denver from the 10th to the 12th.
They will be at the Marriot Hotel in room 570 where they will be demonstrating their Alumine loudspeakers, hooked up to a NAGRA system which will include their new HD DAC.
The 11th Annual Rocky Mountain Audio Fest (RMAF) is the largest consumer audio and home entertainment show in the United States. In the Stenheim room visitors will be able to hear the remarkable performance of the 2-way Alumine monitors paired with the matching 3rd way bass section for added musical gravitas.
Since obtaining distribution agreements for its high quality loudspeakers in the Asian market, STENHEIM has been spending a busy summer introducing them to retailers, specialist journalists and passionate audiophiles.
July saw the company in Korea where the local distributer, Design & Audio, organised a packed event which allowed the lucky guests to experience the sleek ALUMINE 3-way speakers. It was then the turn of Qualia Japan to organise a similar event on the 18th of July for the Japanese market. Finally, from the 8th to the 10th of August, STENHEIM were at the Hong Kong AV show demonstrating their superlative REFERENCE speakers on the Forthwise stand who are looking after distribution for the Chinese market.

Qualia Japan event on the 18th of July for the Japanese market
For the Korean and Hong Kong events, the speakers were shown off in conjunction with hi-fi elements from CH Precision; in Japan they were hooked up to a Manufacture Le Son system showing that Switzerland is truly at the cutting edge of high-end audio technology.
The reception given to STENHEIM’s ALUMINE and REFERENCE speakers was hugely favourable, eliciting many positive comments from attendees as to their ability to handle music from widely varying genres including jazz and some extremely demanding classical music with vibrant and natural-sounding dynamics. Their beautiful design and finish did not go unnoticed either.
Overall, the events were a resounding success and it seems that STENHEIM’s classy loudspeakers are set for a most promising future in the Asian market.

Stenheim has the pleasure of inviting you to discover the REFERENCE at the world premiere of its launch at High End 2014 in Munich.
This speaker was created in pure and well-studied lines to create not only a superb look, but unparalleled sound rendi- tion, based on the concept behind the already well-reputed Alumine. It will enthrall future owners with its exceptional musicality, its three-dimensional space, and vibrantly alive, natural soundstage.
Then there’s its flawless rendering of any genre of music, along with impressive sound levels from the deepest bass to the highest notes. The Reference is also distinct in its exceptional ease-of-use, thanks to remote operation of the MTM couple (medium tweeter) diffusion angle.
Steinheim will take the world of passionate audiophiles by storm, with its new state-of-the art speaker.

Building on the strength of its successful 2 Way and 3 Way alumine speakers, Stenheim is preparing to surprise the world’s most passionate audiophiles at the 2014 CES International from January 7th to 10th 2014 in Las Vegas, USA.
Stenheim will present the very latest in the alumine line, including a new frontplate for the alumine 2-way, solid aluminum for the intermediary base and ground support, and a 5.2 multichannel system built in collaboration with Illusonic, the developer of the famous immersive audio processor.
The event will also provide the occasion for Stenheim to offer a sneak peek of its upcoming new line of speakers, called Reference, before the live, detailed presentation at the next Munich High End show. With distinguishing qualities like exceptional musicality, three-dimensional space and infinite adaptability to the listening environment (to name just a few), Reference is destined to push the limits of sound reproduction even further.
Find all the details on these innovations on our website or by visiting us at the 2014 CES, at our stand in the Venetian, Suite 31-211.

The Audiophiliac drops by the Audioarts showroom for an audition of these stunning speakers.
I occasionally check in with local high-end audio dealers to see what's new, and they're never at a loss to demonstrate something to catch my ear. Th listening rooms at Adioart have been refreshed since my last visit, and the store is now the best appointed shop in town. Audioarts doesn't cover entry-level or midrange gear, but there are plenty of other shops covering that market here in New York City.

HIGH END trade show, Munich, 9th May 2013
Founded in 2010, Stenheim immediately found its place amongst the leaders of the Swiss hi-fi industry. This came as no surprise as the company’s creators, a team of five young engineers, had worked together for several years at one of the world’s most renowned loudspeaker makers, the famous Goldmund company, before setting out on their own. Wishing to strengthen the commercial capabilities at the head of their company, they went looking for someone who could take it over and give their promising start-up a new impetus.
