Here Is A Story...
Today, I had the pleasure of hosting Kim Storgaard from Storgaard & Vestskov, who brought along their "small" floorstanding model, Gro, as well as the stand-mounted Frida. We focused solely on Gro, and after years in Hi-Fi, it takes a lot to truly impress me. But after a few hours with Gro, paired with various playlists from Qobuz, I was genuinely blown away.
Kim and his team have crafted a beautifully balanced, harmonious speaker that doesn’t feel “thin” or “small” compared to my horn-loaded speakers. Throughout the session, there were several goosebump-inducing moments. I highly recommend keeping an eye out for any events where you can experience these speakers—you’ll be prepared to fall in love.
Gro played alongside:
Chord preamplifier CPA 3200
Chord power amplifier SPM 1200C, both updated and tuned by Per Tophøj
Streamer/DAC: Hi-Fi Rose 150B
Cables: Nordost White Lightning
Reference speakers: Horn construction with Traxtrix horn, JBL 2445J driver, 2x Onkyo 15” woofers (W3801), Onkyo mid/high driver (D3520)
