Nothing positive to add?
My comment was a reflection on the size of the industry. 160-170 rooms and still so many manufacturers not represented. And that is based on just my small wish list, not a comprehensive listing. I expect to have a great time. I always have fun at CES and the Newport Show should be a more relaxed atmosphere.
That is a good question. What manufactures were you hoping to see?
With one exception, it looks like my list (if I had one) would be fulfilled. In fact, I think I read somewhere that Cavalli was going to be there. Kind of embarrassing for me in a sense. Why? I was at what turned out to be a high-end headphone show a few months ago (won't do that again....boring and frustrating at the same time) and this lovely young woman with Cavalli was beckoning me over to their tables and to me it looked like high high-end, all fancy and everything, I thought they might be serving caviar or something, so she's signaling me to come over and I'm standing there thinking "oh, hell no", so I didn't go over. Turns out, they were introducing an affordable headphone amp amongst the uber-priced stuff she wanted me to try I guess (even though I'm not looking for one). So if they are at Show, I would have to stop at their booth to make amends with my own intellectual integrity and say a cordial hello, if nothing else. The good folks from Schiit will be there, so it's good.
