Metaxas & Sins Now Available in North America

Florida-based Reel Sound Distribution Inc. will make Metaxas & Sins' line of audio equipment available, including the Papillion and the award-winning Tourbillion T-RX reel-to-reel players.

Available at select retail-gallery partners in the U.S. and Canada, the new agreement marks the first time this new line of Metaxas & Sins reel-to-reel players has been available in North America.

Kostas Metaxas has worked for more than 40 years in high-end audio, from designing and manufacturing entire playback systems to recording more than 300 acoustic concerts on Swiss Stellavox analog tape decks, before designing his own line of reel-to-reel players/recorders and new audio products. His dream has been to bring to a new series of audio components the emotional intensity, daring, and seductive beauty of the most spectacular architecture, design, and sculpture he has experienced.

As a recording engineer, Metaxas also wanted to "voice" these products for extremely realistic playback of recordings—the effortless reproduction of all the nuance and emotion of a musical performance. The result is the new Metaxas collection.

In true "Bugatti fashion", every product is assembled by Metaxas or his sons. These audio sculptures of purist design offer uncompromising performance that brings listeners closer to the musical event than ever before. 

Each component is machined from solid blocks of aircraft aluminum, copper, or titanium, to create an extremely inert and nonresonant structure that shields and protects the delicate electronic signals. The resulting low noise levels make possible sound with breathtakingly musical 3D depth, transparency, and realism. These bespoke and modular electronics make them future-proof. 

Jeff Garshon of Reel Sound Distribution is passionate about curating audio systems that deliver musical content honestly and accurately and, above all, with emotion and beauty. Understanding that analog reel-to-reel tape is still the purest music-delivery format extant, and the origin of all pre-digital popular recordings since 1948, Garshon began searching for the best reel-to-reel sources and audio components capable of delivering that content uncorrupted. This led to his partnership with Metaxas & Sins.

Dealer enquiries are welcome.
