Lots of good stuff here- disproves the notion you cant get great sound at a show. I’m looking forward to today when it should be a bit less crowded.
absolutely agree on how impressive the Chesky Audio speakers are. Their designer is pretty impressive as well. incredibly well controlled bass and plenty of it. A real bargain at $2k. Easy to recommend.
Avant Gard duos sounded great to me. Hard to describe the presence they bring to the music. The best horns I’ve heard.
The best room to my ears is the one with the big Kharmas. At over $300k they should be good and they deliver. I’ll never own them-but I sure would like to.
another excellent room has the Gobel speakers and EMM electronics. Stunningly good. Price is a flash point for some and this is another ultra expensive setup. I’ll never own that kind of rig, but can’t deny the superb performance.
Volti speakers deliver great sound at a far less expensive but still not cheap price point.
I thought the new Burmester all in one delivered great performance. Joining T+A and some others getting this right. Simplified setups that deliver good performance is likely the future of high end audio. I dont think the next generation will be as interested in 8 boxes and yards of cable.
great show if you like vinyl- wonderful selection to buy. Also seems like more rooms are exclusively using analog sources
good show. Happy to be here.
