Axpona 2015 Pics

Mike, which panels are those in the pic? The ones in the front corners or the one in the front wall?

Those are the patent pending bass traps which work down to 20hz. The company is Resolution Acoustics.

This violinist semantics reminds me of club ads that say 'Live nude girls'. Versus what, 'Recorded nude girls'?

One thing I want to be perfectly clear about, when it comes to "recorded nude girls", I have no preference whatsoever as to digital or analog either is fine.

Are you sure about that, the digital one might look better, and the analog one might look like some thing after you have had too many beers and you broke out the beer goggles. ;)


On another note, anyone see or hear these? Funky looking but my listening experience wasn't all that great as the room was way too crowed.

The question was not whether digital or analog sounds like a live violinist. It was which sounds MORE like a live violinist.
To whom?
Both are portraits, subject to interpretation...and varying opinions. Sometimes those particular opinions are posited as absolute fact, when they are really individual preferences. I've heard analog that sounds "more live" than digital and digital that sounds "more live" than analog. So I enjoy both. Ditto for SS/tubes, etc.

cheers,

AJ

Take it with a grain of salt (I'm a manufacturer), but I heard them Sunday without anyone else in room. Thought they sounded pretty good, with the exception of the bass. Not sure if it was the setup or whats going on there with that subwoofer aperture thing from a physics perspective, but the bass didn't seem quite right to me. However, I'm not immune to sighted biases, so that could explain it also.

cheers,

I have a question. What was the most played song amongst the rooms?
Usually every year there's grumblings about a particular track or two.:)
Hotel California?
 
Actually AJ, I can't say that there was any one track that was overplayed. Oh sure, we still managed to hear Keith Don't Go and some of the other regulars, but nothing stood out. Also, there was thankfully not an over abundance of classical, or as my friend calls it "music by dead white guys."

Keith Don't Go and Stimela were the two I heard the most...but not obnoxiously so. The KEF room only had about 20 tracks that's the played so it got repetitive too
