Canpur CP74E UIEM

A Canpur can never be accused of being exacting, but CP74E arrives as their complement to CP622B as the more neutral, overtly detailed sibling.

Proof of how adept the Dutch are at combining concepts, the delicacy of the CP622B is combined with greater transient speed and a faster bass and mid-range – the effort of seven balanced armatures.

CP74E's portrayal is one of perfect balance. Resting on a knife's edge, taking being ever so slightly tipped up and wiry in tone in stride, never straying into sterile territory. 

It's lean, but it's not mean and it's certainly not a killing machine. Rather, CP74E is just a perfect reference monitor, taking after historic models like Hidition's NT6 but packing all the audible advancements to soundstage air made possible by four electrostatic tweeters.
