THE<br />
Cutting Edge<br />
Beauty is a rare thing<br />
Wayne Garcia<br />
Kharma’s Mini Exquisite is a perfectly named<br />
loudspeaker. More than any other (super) model I<br />
know of, it offers a staggeringly seductive blend of fine<br />
detail and, yes, exquisite beauty. It will immediately signal the<br />
slightest change to any other component in your system—say,<br />
whether or not the front-panel displays of my reference MBL<br />
electronics are turned on or off (they sound much better off),<br />
or a hair’s degree of shift to the overhang setting of a movingcoil<br />
cartridge. And yet, as transparent and high in resolution<br />
as it is, the Kharma Mini never sounds cold or analytical. If<br />
anything, the opposite is true. This speaker has drop-deadgorgeous<br />
tone colors and an overall silken presentation.<br />
