    A fairly inexpensive tube integrated.

    The new 702SP/703SP (which is basically 702 and 703 with F1 technology) were really eye openers. 703SP for $19K - launching in September was a “wow!”

    - Wilson Alexx V w Constellation
    - Clarisys w Soulution
    - Magico S3 (Magico room)

    In terms of room sonic qualities, really depends on the effort and care demonstrators put in setting up their systems. I heard some really good rooms as well as some deficient setups.

    More updates later.
    While my wife and I did not listen to every system in every room, we did spend a ton of time and hit a bunch of systems over the four days of the event. To our ears and trying to keep this list very short for our favorites, we liked the MBL room (as Mike suggests above), felt that the darTZeel amps showed well, and the Dan D'Agostino Relentless Epic 800 system (they had multiple systems in the same room and alternated among them) sounded exceptional.

    However, for us at this show, the Kharma Loudspeaker room was magnificent and easily the best sounding room in our opinion.

    Literally, I have never seen so many test cars from a manufacturer in one place as there were in Munich High End.

    It was great to see and meet you in person Mike.

    Great meeting you as well! And I agree, I saw like 200 camouflaged cars from BMW. Amazing. If they were Porsche’s, I probably would have missed the entire show.

    All the rooms at Munich are large.

    What struck me, and I will mention in my podcast was just how there was literally no consensus on what were the great rooms. It was all over the map like never before.
