As avid music enthusiasts ourselves, we’ve been bringing superior sound into our customers homes for years.
When it comes to superior audio, that experience and know how are invaluable in building audio systems. Putting together a music system that’s exactly right for you is a science and an art – It requires technical expertise as well as a true appreciation and feel for the emotional appeal of music.
Our belief and commitment to the expression of the art form. One of life’s greatest gifts to enjoy, music brings out our emotions, allows us to reflect in the moment, revisit feelings of the times and places in our lives. At Gestalt HiFi we understand this intimate relationship and the individual expression each of us enjoys in an enriching listening experience.
This is our passion! We bring elements together in the form of loudspeakers, amplification, digital components, turntables and cabling designed specifically to match one another sonically. With the reemergence of the listening room and the concept of an evening enjoying our favorite albums is again a focal point of a enriched home experience. Where bringing family and friends together to share music is providing an experience to savor.
We specialize in creating listening experiences! We work closely with you, provide in home evaluations, from beginning through purchase and implementation to assure each client’s satisfaction. We are truly a value add resource with years of experience in the industry. Putting together a music system that’s exactly right for you is both a
science and an art – it requires technical expertise as well as a true appreciation and feel for the emotional appeal of music. We love music and its our intention to spread this reborn concept of quality time listening everywhere we go!

“-along with a guarantee that you’ll sit grinning from ear to ear with tears running down your face, “experiencing music in a way that feels like Norah Jones or Neil Young is in your living room.” To showcase the product lines that represent his core philosophy of audio design — Pass Labs and First Watt amplifiers designed by engineering wizard Nelson Pass — Phalan transformed his retail space into perhaps the finest listening room in New Mexico. Sink into one of his plush gray chairs, make a request from Gestalt’s library of vinyl LPs and digital files, and you may be astonished by what you hear.
To let sticker shock scare you away would be a mistake, however. First off, he seems far more intent on sharing the joy of music than pitching his wares. To that end, he founded the High Desert Fidelity Club, which meets monthly in members’ homes (and occasionally at Gestalt), to hold free-wheeling, commerce-free City Different listening parties. (I’ve been. They’re big fun.)”
