Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...?

What speakers impressed you at RMAF 2011 and why?
Anything underwhelming, despite the hype?

I found the following to be very intriguing and impressive.
- In no particular order:

1) Magico Q1
2) Totem Element (Fire)
3) Avalon Idea
4) Totem Hawk? (Hegel Room)
5) Evolution Acoustics MM Micro One
6) Joseph Speakers, Perspective

These speakers seemed to have a very good mix of macro and micro dynamics, bass response, articulation, musicality, sound stage and a seemingly limitless high frequency range.

At $2k, the Evolution Acoustics may be a bargain of the bunch.

Appreciate your thoughts...!

Ebm,
Didn't you start a RMAF Q1 thread, that mysteriously disappeared? In it, you've asked about the Q1 performance at RMAF, since you have not attended the show. Did you transported yourself into the past ,retract that thread, and did attended the RMAF after all?

I thought the Ventures were clearly the best, but also too expensive. Considering price the little $800/pair LSA.5s were the clear winner, IMHO.

Rebbi, I didn't recall hearing it so I looked them up. I don't think I heard them, sorry.
