One of the things I noticed at CES this year was the number of "blue chip" brands that had new products and exciting announcements. CJ with their new GAT2 preamp, Bryston with their Cube3 amps, VAC with their new "now you CAN afford a VAC" amp, preamp and phonostage, ARC with their drool worthy REF 3 Phono, Martin Logan with their new ESL 15A speakers (MUCH better than the Neolith's I thought), Harman with the new Mark Levinson amps, Manley even had some new stuff.

Sometimes with all the new kids on the block, the old stalwart's get forgotten. This year at CES, they were making a roaring comeback.
 
What ML amps did you hear?

Another brand is B&W...I noticed you gave the 803D3 honorable mention. What were your impressions?

The ML amps are confidential (for now). New monos.

I loved the 803D3's. Best B&W I've ever heard. Very linear. Very open and airy sound, with that great British mids.
