Florida Audio Expo 2020 is sold out!

Thanks Bruce. Oh yes, no issues, I just looked at the numbers after three years and decided to Jack Welsh things. I love the brand, the rep is great and the sound of the Constellation products. But the numbers don’t lie. It didn’t sell in 3 years (let’s chalk it up to my failure). I can’t tie up $$$ on the floor if none of my clients want it. I called Irv (Constellation) last week and had a nice chat. He asked me to stay on, but I told him the numbers don’t lie. Again, I’ll take the blame for the numbers. But this is business.

As for NAIM, I haven’t seen any new price list. Are big price increases are coming for NAIM and Focal in Feb? Who knows? With Focal/NAIM taking over Audio Plus, things were rocky last year, but they have their act together now. My new rep is fantastic. Really down to earth and helpful.

Interesting to hear you’re dropping Constellation, Mike. Thought you love the sound. But of course, I understand it’s a business decision.

What will be replacing Constellation in your line-up?

I do love the sound. It’s purely a business decision. You just can’t keep that kind of money tied up on the floor when no one is even asking about it or when you demo, they always want to buy one of your other brands. I’ll announce it’s replacement in the next month or so.
 
Back to the Florida Audio Expo....

Make sure you register if you’re coming. Although not required, it helps us with a numbers count.

Good luck with the Show and Kudos on the sellout!

--last one I attended in Florida was the Stereophile one on the early 90's -the Doral? It was the launch of the Wilson Slamms --we all bussed

to Peter McGraths to hear the Speaker. After the pre chat blurb /etc he announced we are about to witness full toned music and sonic power like few before it.

The packed room fell silent for this experience to leave us in awe.

He played Christy Moore King Puck CD:D!-- God Bless his cotton socks!--at least I recall that -but not much else from that Show:cool:

But I've attended other Presentations by Peter--he is a real Gentleman:)

I notice you no longer Rep Constellation-- trust an amiable parting--just if you needed to discuss anything--call David Payes -he is the Boss there.

As a US Naim dealer -I see the Feb 2020 Naim price list is out-I hope the US Agent can get the brand some more leverage there--Good luck

Good listening,

Bruce
