Indiana Line mi ha risposto alla mail nella quale indicavo il problema, e mi hanno detto che stanno lavorando alla progettazione di stand dedicati. Questo mi fa pensare che il problema non dipenda dalla mia stanza da ascolto, ma dalla posizione “standard” delle casse.

“Dear Lorenzo,
Thank you for your e-mail.
We do get these kind of inquiries from customers, that is why we are developing the stand for Utah 5 and Utah 8, however it is not yet available.
Please observe us on social media as we will share this information once it is available!
Best Regards,
Indiana Line Team.”

Research survey on hi-fi repairability and modular design

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m a Master’s student in Product Development, conducting research for my master’s thesis on circular design and the repairability of consumer electronics, with a focus on hi-fi equipment such as amplifiers.

I’m looking for people who use hi-fi audio equipment, regardless of their technical knowledge or previous repair experience.

Whether you repair your own equipment or have never attempted a repair, your perspective would be very valuable to my research.

Thank you for your time and contribution!! :)

Hey everyone! Just wanted to share an upcoming event for anyone in the Phoenix area who's interested in tube amplifiers and high-end audio.

On October 29, we'll be welcoming Andreas Hofmann, the founder and designer of Octave Audio, to LMC Home Entertainment in Scottsdale for an evening of listening and conversation.

Octave is a German manufacturer known for its approach to tube amplification, combining the sound of vacuum tubes with modern technology designed to improve reliability and performance. Andreas grew up around his family's transformer-winding business and started designing amplifiers as a teenager back in 1975!

He'll be here to share more about his work and present some of Octave's flagship gear, including the Jubilee Reference line.

If you're local and want to stop by, we'd love to have you!

📍 LMC Scottsdale, Scottsdale, AZ
📅 October 29, 2026
🕠 5:30–8:30 PM
