The Encore, while the starting point in the Pure Fidelity lineup, will surpass many manufacturer’s reference models. There is painstaking attention to detail in every aspect that affects sound quality. The ideas are not necessarily new, but there’s no corner cutting in all aspects both seen and unseen to allow performance at an incredibly high level. In addition to its sonic prowess, it is built to be both reliable and beautiful for many years…an audio heirloom.
