Conclusion
I don’t think I have allowed the beauty of the musicbook:25 to sway my opinions of its sound quality, operation and performance, but I think you’ll agree—especially when you see one for yourself—that I could be forgiven if it had. I have to say yet again that I cannot recall ever seeing a more beautiful hi-fi component than Lindemann’s musicbook:25. And all you have to do is add one of Lindemann’s equally-gorgeous musicbook power amplifiers and a pair of loudspeakers to create a complete high-end, high-fidelity, fully networked music system. Sure it’s pricey, but to borrow a lyric from Miley Cyrus: ‘When you’re a VIP / You get whatever you please / What’s not to like?
