Any lucky sharks heading to the munich show in 2 weeks?
This is on my bucket list. Hope to get there eventually.
Check out the list of manufacturers that will have gear there!!!

Man, how I wish. What a show.

Allnic tried to convince me, but just not in the cards at the moment. Too busy looking after Paul :D:D:)
 
Just a little taste of what to expect in Room F-128 in Munich (where the Allnic Picnic happens). Pic is of the rig in pre-test before it makes its way to the venue.


 
I think Glareskin will be there too. Unfortunately I cant go this year...maybe next year!

Those that were lucky to visit the show over the weekend, any impressions? The photos are overwhelming. Thanks to those who've posted them so the rest of us can travel virtually :)
That is one big show. Wizard's site had an update on the stenheim unveiling. As a Nagra user, stenheim's seem to be paired with nagra more and more at shows. Peter of AVshowrooms had some favourable coverage at CES of the Alumine but there was a ref speaker announced in Munich which has unique adjustability. They were powered by nagra vpa amps which I use. Would love to have heard that system. Did anybody hear it? What about the Verity Nagra system? Pic of newer Alumine photostenheim.JPG
 
I saw that, too, Chris. I have to say, his description is spot on, both positive and negatives. Gideon has chosen some very fine gear to represent.

Did you see the pics from Leo? They also seemed to be place mid room like Gideon did a year or two back with the Concerts. Wonder if they sound best that way?

Yes, I did spend about an hour in conversation with Jean-Pascal Panchard (Stenheim) as well as listening to the new Reference floorstanders partnered with Nagra (incl. the new DSD-DAC that seems to be something else), Holborne turntable (very interesting table) etc. This system impressed with reference level dynamics and a seamless soundstage being very natural in size for such a large speaker system - not to big (as most planars...), not to small. Next door at the Kempinski showed the Stenheim Alumine 3-way, i.e. the Alumine monitor on top of the optional bass-modules. Associated electronics consisted of Le Son. This room (with a system being within reach for a larger part of the community) sounded - and looked - beautiful.

I will add some photos to our Facebook-page later on from these events!
