Serenade

Serenade is epitome of Penaudio`s vision of entity of natural sound. As Steve Hoffman, recording engineer and industry reviewer with Tone stated, “the music sounded dead on, just like I wanted it to sound. When I was working on it, the sound was so natural and lifelike that I just sat there and listened Peggy Lee`s wonderful songs, and before I knew it I was relaxing and enjoying myself.” Serenade is truly a giant in its ability to play music.
