I’ve always wanted to visit the Nagra factory, they have an exquisite listening room on-site as well.

oh man was secretly hoping you were gonna say that 🥹

I don’t suspect they are particularly friendly but maybe open to the public, you never know! worth a try.

from what I remember they have Alexia V loudspeakers in their room, and obviously the rest of the system is all Nagra. pretty close to a dream setup for me, even though there’s other gear that I slightly prefer.

awesome, digging a bit through their site now.  amazing designs and the craftsmanship looks incredible.
