@alont got way better pics than I did, so I'll try not to double up much
@Dennis Murphy has a 20hz tone test track, we thought the pics were going to rattle off the walls when the BMR towers cranked it!
Atrium full of vinyl mostly
Synergistic Research Ted saying that he "can't listen to a stereo anymore" without his magic ball-on-stick thing (center)
The room sounded great, admittedly. I'd not heard those Estelon speakers before today, they were very nice indeed.
Mon speakers, made of titanium and filled with wood and leather - interesting design decision
A "point source" mid and tweeter array over dual sealed (!) 12 inch drivers
This Maggie - servo sub DSP wizardry room featuring
@orchardaudio sounded great
Triangle is a French company
I laughed at the extra feet holding up this piece of electronics
This guy appeared to have made everything himself, from the subs to the vinyl cartridge. Now that's dedication!
Sonos Fabers in the Technics suite
This guy made his own speakers too and they sounded really nice. He had a sign on the door dating anyone to find a better sounding room (which I did)
After all those $60,000 racks, it was refreshing to see a guy just slap his electronics on the ground
Magnepan was there! This is a new model for them, the 2.7i, coming soon. Good bass, shouty mids in this setup. A customer pointed out they had the right and left channels switched...
Perlisten S7t blew me away. Fantastic. And look, they cared enough to treat the room with more than just plants!
Posting your own Klippel measurements? Yes please
This was a room
Ah the vaunted MBL omnis! Cool effect
There was no price posted for these speakers, which I'm sure meant that they could send my kids through college with the same amount of money
Zu, who I'll give credit for being one of the only affordable sets off speakers at the show. Unfortunately the music choice they were demoing these with was abysmal
Harbeth. They didn't interact with the room well at all
B&O showed off some really neat toys
This nutty speaker has an up firing tweeter that's motorized and you can adjust via app
A magnepan competitor (out of France maybe?) Called Diptyque. They sounded great. Knowledgeable rep!
Nobody was in this room, which was a shame because these sounded really good. Some Italian brand, "Opera" maybe? Their sound floated above the boxes, weird to hear
A bespoke speaker with no price...props to them for their taste in music though, Disclosure feat London Grammar is always a good time.
The big guys here must've weighed a ton because they were made out of marble. A
Quarter million dollars per pair
I didn't get a pic because it was crowded, but the Vienna Acoustics room also sounded good.
