For those of you who will be attending AXPONA here in the Chicago area on April 25-27, I'd like to invite you all to visit our room to check out the big system we'll have going and meet the key people behind many of the products on demonstration.

We'll be in the Rosemont 4 room on the third floor. Bricasti Design also has room 406 where they will be showing as well.

We're especially excited about this year's show and look forward to meeting you!
 
Our system on demonstration in the big room will include the following:
Aurender W20 and X100L reference music servers, Bricasti M1 DAC, AMR CD-77.1 CD player, Kuzma turntable (model TBD) with 4Point tonearm and Kuzma cartridge (model TBD), Atma-Sphere MP-1 preamplifier, Atma-Sphere MA-2 amplifiers, and Sound Lab Majestic 845s, with cabling by Teo Audio and Clarity Cable.

Quite a few of the key people behind these products will be on hand to personally answer your questions.

Let's get this party started!
 
I will be there. Heading up on Thursday-Sunday. I was there last year, best show of the year next to RMAF. At least 20 new roll outs: Plinius, Sony, Mod*Wright, and VPI among others.

Lots to see and hear this year!
 
Any first day impressions and thoughts?

Aidas bi amped with ARC class D amps, Kubala Elation cables and a ARC Ref 5 sounded as good as any system I've heard at a show. Hell, sounded great for any venue. Source was a ARC Ref CD-9.
 
Mike,

The Alexias with Dag Momentums Monos and Dag Preamp were phenomenal. I see what you like about this match. The Alexias really are very musical (a little less clinical) than previous Wilsons I recall. In have this room in my top 5. I had a nice chat with Dan in the room too. Great guy.


Frank,

That was a great room too. I was shocked by the dynamics of the ARC amps. Did you hear the AMG TT with that system. Spectacular.

I sat right behind Fremer in this room. He looked sorta like this=> :woot:



Others rooms that rounded out my top five in no particular order:

-- Focal Utopias with Aesthetix amps and Clearaudio TT

-- Scaena and Ayon Titans

-- Kharma DB-11S bi-amped with Constellation Centaur Monos and Stereo amp with all Constellation front-end.


As an aside, Kharma's new Signature speakers are really great with Constellation. The new Constellation Integrated with the S7's were truly exceptional in a smaller room. Very coherent presentation.
 
Anyone hear the $60,000 poly mer speakers? Does anyone who did agree with my less than positive comments about them?
 
I just want to share the pics that I got. Imay not be able to provide you with all the electronics used but I hope youguys enjoy.

Scaena Loudspeakers
