Equipment in use

A Viv Labs arm has been reported on Spiritland’s Kuzma setup. Accounts also mention a Kuzma arm, so the exact configuration should be treated as variable.

Inside the system

At Spiritland, the equipment record identifies Living Voice Bespoke four-way horn-loaded satellites with 15-inch midbass. A horn-based approach can provide useful dynamic headroom, but aiming the speakers and balancing direct sound against room reflections remain central to shared listening.
