Axpona 2018
Went again this year and found the show to be larger, higher quality sounding rooms than previous shows. I have been to many brick and mortar stores which have good sounding rooms, but at Axpona this year many rooms were better sounding than their store show rooms!
My best sounding large room was the VAC/Von Schweikert Audio/Esoteric, room. The Wilson room with the DCS stack was also very good. My best small room, and there were many, was the Gershman Accoustics room, their new speakers were sounding great with top end electronics. Also, I was impressed with NOLA room again.

With respect to the HHR Exotics, I was disappointed in how they sounded as they were too bright. After talking with the company they were extremely disappointed in how they sounded at the show. The room was too small for them and didn’t lend itself right. In case anyone was wondering and has an old set of Ohm F’s with destroyed surrounds, HHR will use them and rebuild them to their design for around $8k. I love the show for the exposure, but I’d like to hear them, along with a lot of the other systems, in a proper room setup. |
