CES 2003 - Any Audition/Picture Requests?

All,

My dad and I are about to make our annual trip to CES and decided we would try something new this year. We will of course be visiting with those manufacturers we already represent, but we are also always looking for additional lines to pick up. So, in addition to those we already plan on visiting, feel free to let us know about products you are interested in and would like us to check out for you. We will do our best to give you an objective and fair opinion of what we heard/saw (let us know if you want pics also, as we will have a digital camera with us).

Of course, feel free to let us know if you think this is a stupid idea (probably wouldn't be the first) ;-)

Best Regards...Mike - Father & Son Audio

Tim, i'll be there with my digital camera....i understand that Don and Bill are coming too. it is too bad you aren't coming.....maybe next year or maybe the Stereophile Show in SF in June.

i have a hard time always remembering to take pictures......somehow it seems like work then.....but i'll do my best. and then taking a few notes in each room so later i can keep my perceptions a little straight.

Mike- Sounds great! I am a little bummed that I can't make it out this year, but work still comes before playing- I need to get my priorities straight!

Hi!
that is a wonderful idea, really! I would be interested in what WADIA is doing in the US. Are they still strong and healthy, maybe even developing new stuff? Will their PowerDAC be picked up again?
I tried to figure out theses concerns via e-mail but there isn't any answer from WADIA - not even to two nice X-mas and Happy New Year cards.
Thanks very much for going through this for the rest of us AudiogoNers!
If I can do the same for you at the Frankfurt HighEnd Show in May, let me know!

With pen, paper and digital camera - we too will be tromping from room to room, following our ears, ever ready for that waft of musical sustenance, drifting along on the wind on hope, coming from a dark and hollowed place (a hotel room) that speaks that maybe, just maybe, a part the holy grail may lie within...

But in the meantime... :-), we jot down notes about and pictures of things that we hear and like - or think someone else may be interested in (suggestions are welcome, great idea Father and Son Audio Mike!) - mostly to remind ourselves of what each system looks like (there are lots of eye-candy at this ear-candy show) and what its components are (were) [what was that CD player they were using to drive the Maxx's? Oh, yeah, of course, ...it was one of those new fangled reel-to-reel CD player thingies :-)

Plinius gear, for sure.

Does Christophe Cabasse show up for these things, or does he stay on the other side of the big pond?
