This sounds extremely interesting. I read an estimated price of $22k, with 200W into 8 ohms. I'll look forward to it coming out later this year.

From their website and FB page, it looks like Vinnie Rossie no longer sells somewhat affordable gear?? I am sure these new pcs are fantastic, but so was the Lio.

In a somewhat apples to oranges thing, it would be interesting to compare the upcoming Aurender AP20 to a Lumin P1+Amp combo. Similar price and both with a streaming/DAC/amplification set-up. Something tells me that both would be terrific, simply personal preference with one's own speakers making the call.

The new Magico S sounded really good - almost M like (90-95% M like) (for example - I have some M2s and wouldn't spend the extra money over the new S)
I have to admit this speaker has sparked my interest. The A5 seems to me to more of a lateral upgrade to my listening setup. I'm looking forward to hearing this speaker in person. It isn't a cheap speaker by any means. But, with the newest technology and experience from Magico. I think this could be really worth considering. At least by me.

I loved the show honestly many great rooms
it makes me wonder if we seem to be very diverse in loves verses dislikes who has it correct ?
I love panels all there I felt were good to great.
when I walked into the 3 floor sun coast it was a Throw back many years in the past for the app sound. but the Clarisys were much better then my memories of the many apps I’ve heard.
I own a set of old Maggie’s 3.6r and I felt the 3.7 were behind mine. Am I correct or is it I have mine and are used to them.
I can’t say any rooms were bad but clearly liked some way more.
over the next day they or so I plan to play some 79 videos to better clarify my thoughts and will post.
a big thanks to sun coast and all the kind reps in rooms.
One thought auralic excuse my spelling was playing techno I hate techno lol
but when I asked the rep to play a nice piano tune he did. The room filled
When it was over he went back to techno and the room emptied hahaha. Maybe I’m
Old but good piano In a small jazz club is to me
What this hi end is about as a start.
And when he did play some jazz honestly
It sounded pretty good.

There definitely was a wide variety of music being played. Sometimes you just have to come back to the room and hope they have changed it up.
Shows are a blast to go to. I never think bad about any product at a show because of its sound. Rooms are hard to get good sound out of in the short amount of time they have to set up. I heard that at AXPONA, the manufacturers could NOT start seting up their room until Thursday morning. That's a lot to do in 24 hours. If there is any hiccup at all, they don't have a chance in getting good sound.
All that being said - it's fun to talk about which rooms sounded good and bad.

Did anyone see the Orchestros speakers? I think they were the only audio room with a video monitor. The speakers had the drivers on arms. Not being able to see them I can't explain them. I do know they sounded good especially considering they were only driven with a Vincent integrated with built-in DAC. The guys were extra friendly and had quite a sense of humor.
i did i think your comments are spot on , filled with honesty . from outside in the hall i had to go inside . it was good but did have some odd parts, but not offensive. there english was very tough for me and i did ask all the questions. it was amazing given it had optical from a laptop to the receiver and had HDMI video at the same time . i aksed him to play a cd and he did it got a little better .

Retailers here made a killing during Covid. Massive profits. Stock prices soaring to record levels.
Was Esoteric represented at the show?
I'd like to know what is replacing G-01X and G-02X. G1X can't be its only master clock offering going forward.

I saw them in one room showing with Klipsch. I was hoping to get a listen to Esoteric but I'm not sure if that was the best match for synergy. Although the sound wasn't bad it did come off a bit brighter than I prefer. I could blame the speakers but again that's sort of my impression of Esoteric.
What got me interested was hearing a Teac DAC against supposed better DAC, the better DAC did have a bit more detail but for my listening pleasure I'd prefer the Teac.
