Hello,

Orchard Audio equipment will be in 3 rooms at CAF2023 -- Nov 11th to 13th, 2023

Room 708 -- Hollis Audio Labs
The system so far will be a fully active 3-way version of the Magnepan MG10/QR speakers with OB servo subs using the dspNexus 2x8 system.
Will be using two pairs of Orchard Audio Starkrimson Monoblocks driving the planar drivers. More info from Hollis here: https://www.audionervosa.com/index.php?topic=8962.0

Rooms 857 & 859 -- Endow Audio (www.endowaudio.com)
One room will have Bravura 7.2 speakers with a Starkrimson Duo (150Wpc Gan stereo amp)
The other room will have Bravura 12.2 speakers with a Starkrimson Stereo Ultra 2.0 (500Wpc GaN stereo Amp)

I will also be present at the show on Saturday and Sunday and will most likely be in any of the 3 rooms listed above at any given time.

More info to come...

I'd love to go there this year but work schedule is looking grim again. I haven't been since right before Covid :-(

That's a crazy amount of subs! Looking forward to hearing it, I'll be there Saturday if all pans out.

There seems to be much more acceptance of subwoofers in general this year - I saw both SVS and Hsu will be exhibiting at the show. In years past, they've been audiophile taboo, so it's nice to see that impression waning.

Any idea what the cut off frequency is between the subs and satellites?

I actually changed the crossover point to 160Hz for the show between the 4x8 servo subs and the Magnepan MG10/QR planars.
