RMAF 2012 Postmortem


Doesn't seem to be an RMAF 2012 thread yet.

Wondering what people thought, so I'll make a start.

Best in Show:

The big Ventures. Hard to describe how good these speakers sounded without being sappy. IMHO, embarrassing to other "statement" speakers at the show, like the big TAD and Lansche.

I was mostly interested in high efficiency speakers. Especially good were:

Zu Defintion IV
Devore Gibbon 93 and 96
Sonist C4

The Sonists, playing in the Snake River system, sounded especially good considering their (comparatively) reasonable price.

A few other noteworthy speakers were

Vapor's new 3 way

Vivid's space alien rendition of a mini-tower in the Tweak geek room

The Evolution mini-monitor was the best (reasonably) accessible speaker I heard, at 2500. Very good.

Opinions based on information overload, over a day and a half of listening.

Any other impressions?

And please don't think I'm some authority. Ive just been following some.poor ethics on this forum lately and it doesn't do any of us any good. If you want to settle a dispute that has nothing to do with an Audiogon transaction I think you need to take it outside. I'm here to learn, not to cut people down. I expect that from everyone and I hope you do too.
Greetings to all from South Pacific.

Has anyone visited the "COINCIDENT" room? Your comments/comparisons on the Total Victory V loudspeakers will be appreciated.

With Donjr here. I don't think this thread is the place for revisiting one user's customer service dispute. The sound in the Vapor rooms at RMAF, which many judged to excellent, is of course relevant here. Please, let's stick to the show.

Thx,

John
Kelvin,
That’s a very interesting post. It’s well considered and has a great deal of merit.
