High end audio predictions and wish lists for 2021

Exactly, although I hear one always comes out evil. The nice one comes to California and the evil one stays in Florida!

Come down after the pandemic to Ventura County and further south to the San Fernando Valley (without getting into true LA) and you can visit a few dealers and nice systems with me. I’m still trying to get a demo at JBL Northridge itself.
 
Hmmm, hockey in Florida, who would have thought? And I said the same thing to one of my Tampa friends when the Lightning won the cup in 2004 2020!:)

Nice pic, Mike!

I was thinking the same thing.... where in the heck is Florida, Canada... maybe in Alberta :P.... (ps I grew up on skies :) so I say this tongue in cheek like Baseball in Montreal and Toronto :D).
 
Randy, I was totally teasing on that one, but hey, one never knows! Maybe I should Google that and find out, haha!

I guess with stadiums being built with roofs etc., I suppose anything can be played anywhere!
 
My predictions for 2021:
- we will have a Munich Hi-End this year, either May or September
- people will care less about hi-end audio in 2021, after sitting at home for a year watching Covid numbers (once vaccinations will start to have impact)
- we will see less unobtainium, bat-shit crazy hi-end pricing, and toasted/ frosted/ fried products being perceived as the bees-knees in 2021 vs. simply solid engineering

Shit, not sure on this one... I just read some of the latest TAS and saw three consecutive reviews... a $500,000 turntable (better run out and get yours quick they are only going to make 40 of them), $6500 headphones (and I thought mine were nuts, although they did mention mine several times in the article :D), and a $145,000 DAC (works best with their high priced server of course :))... three straight reviews.... I was like... really... they all looked good, but DAMMMMM.

Randy, I do mean this in the kindest possible way, but if you think the Wadax looks good or visually appealing, you should consider talking to a professional [emoji2957]

Hehe, didn't say I thought it looks visually appealing... but maybe the definitive piece for bat shit crazy.... well that table at $500k has to be part of that discussion also.

The Wadax design reminds me of an 80’s boom box.

Just saying....

I was thinking the same thing when I saw it... I was like, WTF, it has detachable speakers :).
 
Oh boy, now I see it, that’s where they got the elegant lines from... reviving the boom box.

I certainly look forward to what shows can actually take place, always look forward to Munich as well as the Poland show. Really, any of them would be nice!
