2023 Florida Audio Expo Show Report

The VRC flagship probably needs to come with a small electric forklift to make handling more manageable for the average person.

Did anyone at the Show hear any modestly priced speakers that impressed them greatly, say with a soft upper price range of $10K?  Reviews of these ghastly pricey speakers is equally as interesting to me as reviews of new biz jets: I read both such reviews with avidity, but they remain little more than a fantasy.  At any rate, I booked a flight to Chicago to attend AXPONA in April. ;-)

Happy Listening!

@whitestix A few moderately priced speakers stood out:

Joseph Audio Pulsar - the Joseph Audio room has been mentioned a few times in this thread, but not a lot of credit was given specifically to the Pulsar speakers he had. For bookshelves, they filled the space quite nicely, and the tone was wonderfully warm and full with great detail and imaging. 

Borresen S3 - These are their newest floorstanders at $11K, likely meant to be their rebuttal on the Scansonic MB-B series (of which Michael Borresen also designed before leaving Dantax).

Wharfedale Elysian 1 - While the Just Audio room focused mostly on quality mid-fi, the Wharfs with their AMT tweeter sounded pretty darn good for the price. 

Get your popcorn, the Clarisys Audio Loudspeakers will be at the 2023 Axpona Show in room 352 and room 675 🤔 Will they win Best Of Show again ?..
