Nice to see Ken here, I always loved his videos when he worked at his previous place and would love to see him do more of the same for upscale, his passion for audio is infectious and I think upscale would benefit greatly if Ken were to do more product videos!
Thanks for teaching me about Magico Speakers 🔊 I had no idea what they were before your prior videos. Get in on the videos with Kevin’s videos for some banter
Enjoyed being able to put a face with a name now! Thanks for inviting us into your home and showing us your system. By the way excellent choice you’ve made!!! By chance where those KT-66 tubes? Thanks and let the good times keep on spinning!
Ken sold me my Arcam SR250 and nice to put a name on a face. I’ve played phone tag for a bit as I’m having some issues abs hopefully he will work with me. Also my grandfather recently passed so I’ve not been great w answering my phone. The Arcam amp is such a step up from my Best Buy ‘Magnolia’ AVR
I came to Upscale in January of 2020, so almost 1.5 years and I love it here. A larger selection of product lines and a higher volume of sales has been a great benefit.
Dear Ken, a great video. I have two questions: 1. The music used in this video is great. Which music (name/album) is it? I would like to buy it. 2. Which Origin Live tonearm do you use for your woodepecker? Thank you very much.
you guys should have recorded this with the phone sideways, recording it vertically (the length of the phone position) makes the screen so much smaller
Science is a virtue. When you understand capacitence, inductance and how electrons travel on the surface of metal you can understand why cables can help prevent signal deteriation. Diferent metals offer better conductance, like silver. Knowledge not snake oil.
@@kmd88412 I do understand. I have some great speaker cables from Ricable. Of course it's important to have high quality speaker cables. But it has been tested numerous times that those high-end speaker cables from Audioquest are snake oil(not only Audioquest of course). It can't be measured, it can't be tested double blinded. The DBS system has also been tested to decrease the sound quality once there is a battery in it. It just kinda dissapoints me that Upscale Audio(which I believe are not snake-oil salesmen) is into this kind of thing.
So that's what Ken looks like cool thanks for showing us your system

Best episode I’ve ever seen on this channel.
Really like these personal videos from Upscale. Please keep it up.
Wonderful system Ken… As a customer I appreciate the knowledge, and patience, you have shown each time I have come in to make a purchase. Thank you!!!
Hi Ken...nice to see you landed at Upscale. I always enjoyed your other video's are BB. Love those Spendors! Cheers!
Nice system Ken! Thanks for sharing.
Really nice system, thanks for sharing. I'd love to hear those Spendor speakers as well, they look gorgeous.
Ken is now at Upscale? Marvelous!
Thank You
Hi Ken! Great to see you in Costa Mesa!
Spendor ! nicely done ✅
A so intriguing rig. I do love it!

Ken is a great guy and a major reason I patronized his former employer Brooks Berdan, Ltd. across town.
Steelhead!! What a beast!

By chance where those KT-66 tubes?
Thanks and let the good times keep on spinning!
Those are KT-88, Glod Lion. Thank you for asking.
I never realized Tik Tok-ers were in Upscale Audio's marketing demographic. Beautiful system!

Excellent video. And I applaud his ownership and use of the Spendor D9s. I have a pair of my own, and they are superb speakers.
Thanks Ken.
Please keeping Doing these they are great!!!!
Nice system. When did you leave Brooks Berdan? And why?

Nice system. Thanks for sharing.
I am also very interested to know what track was playing in the background of this video. Can anyone help?
Kevin got a Deal when he snatched Ken.
Dear Ken, a great video. I have two questions:
1. The music used in this video is great. Which music (name/album) is it? I would like to buy it.
2. Which Origin Live tonearm do you use for your woodepecker?
Thank you very much.
Hi Ken,
what musuk is playing in the backround of the video?
I guess I'm too old to understand this aspect ratio.
You guys sell the Vicoustic line?
Kevin’s turn
you guys should have recorded this with the phone sideways, recording it vertically (the length of the phone position) makes the screen so much smaller
It's done like that intentionally. This video was made for our instagram channel.
@@kmd88412 ahhh, I see. Either way, great video and hello from montreal canada
It kinda dissapoints me that those snake oil AQ speaker cables are featured again on Upscale Audio.
If he likes the way they sound in his system, good for him. You go out and buy the cheapest hunk of lamp cord you can find and enjoy that

So sad Ken got rid of his jadis amp, a Jadis PA-100 is 150 watts, of which 30 in class A
This amplifier doesn't get that hot, just runs hand warm : )
The Jadis amp I had was the I35. Runs HOT as H
@@kmd88412 okay, that's a different story then!
