    I had no problems getting through all the photos with Firefox. Thanks for the effort. There are a lot of products I would like to own just for the industrial design.

    There are speakers and then there are MBL 101 Xtremes. On a completely different planet. Unreal. So real!

    Of the 12th floor suites the Pass XS with the Sopra 2 was better than both Sonus Faber rooms...IMO. Maybe they will tweak setup for Saturday. Spent about 45 minutes rotating between the 3 rooms.

    Agreed. For those at Axpona, try to hear the Sopra 2's with the little MicroMega 1. WOW! 3rd floor I think.

    I did hear the micromega. While not in the same ballpark of sound, it was still very enjoyable. I would have like to heard different cabling on that system tho. I think that speaks to the Sopra's ability to scale tho as the front end scales. That being said, the Pass room was not 40x more enjoyable

    I agree with you Mike, I have heard nothing else like the Xtreme's. It was my audio epiphany where the room was energized with music. Those four large columns just disappeared.

    Dan: I thought the same thing Joseph Audio had some of Levinson gear running a pair of C1's in their main room this year... They had the 585 Int. Amor and No #52 Pre/Amp with mono blocks very nice looking setup and of course great sound.

Hotel power vs battery - hell yeah. But proper home power vs battery? How much improvement? I would be curious to try. It certainly was noticeable to all of us in the room last night.

    $30k for the Stromtank. Runs for 6-8 hours. 8 plugs on the back. Batteries last 20 years.

    Impressed.

    The Stromtank was one of the more interesting products I saw at last years RMAF. The man behind the product is Wolfang Meletzky the "M" in MBL. If my dealer gets on in I might try and demo it in my system.

    Jim - it definitely makes an audible difference when comparing some hotel power + battery power vs straight battery power.

    Also, I ran into him as I walked into the Magico S5MK2 room. Both Dave and Peter M. visited the room to listen to the new S5s. It was a very cordial visit in which several jazz and classical music pieces were played from tape through CAT pre and power amplification - very impressive. Dave was very complementary. Pictures were taken. And, I could tell Alon was quite humbled by the visit.

    Me too = +1

    Thanks for all of your hard work Mike. I much prefer the format for the Day 2 photos. They display much larger and I am in the driver's seat for quickly varying speed, stopping, and starting. No self-driving car for me.

    Mike, I love coffee but lets see some more pictures of equipment! I only had a day at Axpona this year, I saw a ton of great new gear, take a listen to the Dynaudio Xeo 2 at Joseph Audio room 4th floor if they have them hooked up yet.. Those little powered speakers are loaded with great sound and blew my socks off sonically so much when I heard them at a friends house I picked up a pair at Axpona via Next Level Audio...

    When you mention Peter M. when discussing Wilson Audio that would be Peter McGrath. For many years he has been travelled the country demoing Wilson speakers. He is also a very capable recording engineer and often uses his some of his recordings in these demos.

    They said you can use it with an appropriate power conditioner or power strip.

    Ah so it's more of a system augmentation piece in that regard, use existing power conditioners, etc. to continue to plug your gear into but plug the power units into this to provide batter backup when needed.

    Re: Axpona 2016 Official Pictures Thread

    I want to get this out early so people don't think I am copying off the kid in front of me. After a long second day today, here is where I come out. Please remember I have a hearing impairment.

    Top Five
    1 YG and MSB
    2 Wilson Alexx and Doshi with tape and vinyl3 Raidho D1.1 and Aavik
    3 Avantegarde Uno XD and Av Amp
    4 Wilson and Dag
    5 Martin Logan and McIntosh (seriously)

    Runner-ups in no particular order:
    - The 12th Floor (et al) - ARC, Sonus Farber, etc., etc.
    - VAC and Von Schweikert
    - Vapor and Lampi - spent time with Myles pickin the tunes and finally really dug the DSD. PCM even with new r2r not so much.

    No shows (for me):
    Magico S5mkii - I just can't love the tweeter (even with CAT's and Tape ) everything else is peachy.
    MBL - I was to scared to listen....too loud and just too much.
