Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...?

What speakers impressed you at RMAF 2011 and why?
Anything underwhelming, despite the hype?

I found the following to be very intriguing and impressive.
- In no particular order:

1) Magico Q1
2) Totem Element (Fire)
3) Avalon Idea
4) Totem Hawk? (Hegel Room)
5) Evolution Acoustics MM Micro One
6) Joseph Speakers, Perspective

These speakers seemed to have a very good mix of macro and micro dynamics, bass response, articulation, musicality, sound stage and a seemingly limitless high frequency range.

At $2k, the Evolution Acoustics may be a bargain of the bunch.

Appreciate your thoughts...!

YG Kipod II Signature ($49k) were fronted by Empirical-modified JC-1 amps from Parasound ($10k), with the signal coming from Steve’s new DAC, fed by a Mach2Music Mac Mini server

I am confused now, is Aireaudio and Luvs2listen the same guy?

Raytheprinter, as I recall the Vapor Audio demo was done after hours in one of the YG Acoustics room and I think the equipment used was supplied by Emperical Audio. The amps he uses are the modded Parasound JC-1's and other modded sources.

Anyways, the tone I see from Luvs2listen (Aireaudio?) pretty much matches what went down with the last Vapor Audio thread regarding customer service issues. That thread was deleted unfortunately.

You guys are amusing. So you bump up an 8 month old thread to cause problems? Why? How are you making the forum a better place by doing so?

You talk of disclosure, how about each of you man up as I said before and say who you really are? You're obviously not just some concerned citizen. My guess is you're either somebody with some sort of axe to grind, or a competitor hiding behind a keyboard trying to bring down the new guy who's getting all the buzz. Which is it?

You know Sprks, this was already covered in that other thread. I'm surprised with your claimed intimate knowledge of that thread that you missed it.

AireAudio and Luvs2listen are both the same guy. I created an account for a distributorship with Arte Forma Audio gear, and I accidentally posted under that name again instead of signing in with the name I use for responding to Vapor questions.

Yes, it's me. Busted. Feel all better now?

So, who are you Mr. Disclosure? Care to come clean, or will you simply sit in the sty and continue to fling the mud?

Grow up will ya?
