Pacific Audio Fest

This room also give clean and neat sound.

My guess is that LTA amplifier works well with Spatial Audio speaker.

I expected to be impressed by the big VAC / Von Schweiker rig and I was.  But two other systems were also impressive without me having any preconceived expectations going in.  They were the Acora speakers and the Joseph Audio / Doshii system.  Honorable mention to Acapella / Audio Note system.

Happy listening.

My favorite overall was the Alsyvox/Pillium system.  This was the only system that I would happily replace my own system with. 

I was actually really disappointed by the Genesis system, although it could have been the material they were playing on the two occasions I stopped by.  I'm going to try again tomorrow morning before I leave. 

The Vanatoo system, at $599, was stunning for what it could do for the price. This would be a killer system for a small apartment or dorm room.

Acora speaker sounds clean and detailed driven by Vac amp and Lampi Horizon Dac.

It use Scanspeak drivers including berrilum tweeter.

It's inert cabinet using real granite contribute to clean sound.

Considering its weight (250 lb for each) and expensive driver units, it does not appear to be expensive at 27000$.

The most important thing is that it's sound is enjoyable.

@shkong78 Thanks for these videos!

The Voxativ / Spatial especially interesting in comparing the same presentation.

I preferred the Voxativ, but not by much, and at 2 1/2 time more expensive, that puts the Spatial in a very good light.
