At Moving Air's launch event, which took place recently at Abbey Road's Studio 2 facility, Kelsey conducted 'live demonstrations', with listening tests in the control room, explaining the technology involved to the trade and press guests.
Abbey Road, with its reputation for technical excellence, was quoted as saying that in a studio environment, this cable enhanced the musical detail and improved the stereo image. Kelsey's parent company, Fuzion plc, rocked the party by providing a live stage rig that comprised three of its new compact Radian RW1108 and RW1122 floor monitors, with Camco Vortex 6s powering a Nexo PS10/lS500 combination (with dedicated PS10 amp).
"It was a very successful launch," said Michael Whiteside, Kelsey's marketing director. The evening, compered by Tony Moore of the Bedford Club, featured a number of bands, including his own as well as the Fuzion house band, Orbit 6.
The occasion also afforded Kelsey the opportunity to give a first public outing to the Furman brand of high-end power conditioners, with the IT-2315-E reference unit demonstrated to critical broadcasting professionals and high-end HI-FI dealers.
Further success has come with a spin-off from Kelsey's work with MA. In pushing the bounds of technology to help produce the best possible cable, Kelsey introduced a modified insulator that has subsequently been incorporated into Kelsey ATM microphone and standard cables. "It's already creating a good impression in the marketplace," said Whiteside. "Only recently I had feedback from a sound library, claiming they got the clearest sound from our product than any they'd ever experienced."
