Best sound at RMAF

Glory- that Is what Its all about If one Is happy with ones system. I am also very happy with mine at present. Why was It worth going If all the rooms as you say were "Most disappointing. Most of the rooms." What were you expecting to hear that you didn't?But I also agree It was well worth going and a must go to event.
I was most perplexed (lol) when I went Into a room to hear a speakers with my cd's that I had taken to the show and the chap told me couldn't! well he was a turntable maker!, so I guess he had a point. I perhaps should've noticed that there was no cd player with the rest of the gear In the room. But you can get a little goggled eyed with all the stuff In each room (to my defence your honor).
Tobias- room sizes that we are for the most part are blessed with here In the US are not quite the norm In other parts of the world ie Europe. So the hotel room sizes are what most especially Brits can expect to listen In. I know friends that have gear In rooms that are not much bigger than 10' x 10' that are sitting rooms also not just hi-fi gear. A bit of a tight squeeze methinks.
I thought that there were quite a few rooms that sounded really good. My possible favs were the Apogee room and the Maxx'2, to name but only 2.

I must've of completely got my ears In a mess with the MBL room, they were playing some Instrumental track and It was way way to bright and harsh sounding for me, I did go on friday afternoon, so maybe you guys that have raved about It went later than that?, so what changed between my listening and yours?hmmmmm. I think I am In a class of one on that one.
Hey Marco, I am predominantly a horn lover also, but prefer S/S to tube amplification. This all goes to show that It is different strokes for different folks. I wouldn't swap my mere lil 'ol Oris 150 speakers for the Acapella Trilons!
