RMAF 2014 Official Photo Thread

3 yrs in a row in which Ayre has a different but meaningless display. Cool but misses the point. Set up the system right and let customers listen to it.

Maybe their stuff just isn't that good....so they have to revert to gimmicks....??? Don't know.

I've ever been an Ayre fan....especially with the big pricey stuff of late. Plus, friends of mine with Ayre gear have had some serious reliability issues of late.

Ayre have really created fun hang out rooms. Agree that they don't lend themselves to audition the equipment. In 2012 and 2013 I visited the room and smiled and appreciated the fun but didn't stay to hang out or to listen beyond the great Ella LP (Let no man...)
I have heard Ayre gear at the Montreal show which was excellent, though it has never tempted me.

My wrist size is fine, but kept worrying about knocking it into things and dinging it up :(

I'm more of an IWC guy these days, but sold all of them except a Spitfire. A Portuguese at some point will grace my home, but it's a really thick watch.

Have a Portugese Dual Chrono. Beautiful watch.

It was definitely cool, but I don't think it's an effective way to promote their products. Nobody was listening or chatting, just poking their heads in for a look and then off they go.

I enjoyed my visit with the Ayre Rep there. We talked about the latest updates to my QB-9 and especially about their view on DSD.

I'm not surprised - but from the sounds of things - well worth it.

Let me ask - is there a way to adjust the bass - other than with placement?

Mike,
The Betas come with a Servo control EQ unit with low pass and high pass, contour and overall low end level controls. Combined with placement. That is a lot of control. However, I also needed an MEN220 to get it right.

Since I hadn't gone thru this thread, I didn't see the
picture of my new table. I took home this gloss black George Warren turntable at the end of the show. A decision that took almost a year! Very happy!

Read the whole thread, looked at the pics, yet I see no mention of the new ARC Galileo gear? Did they not show? I know many folks said they'd reserve judgement until seeing in person and listening... I am surprised no mention or pics? (Or maybe I just missed it?)

Indeed, not only that, my last name is 'Vineyard' which is where the vin came from, way back in my Microsoft days creating my email name. Some wanted me to go with 'bovine' but, well, you know...
