Capital Audiofest Coming Up!

Didn’t get to hear this year but from prior experience LTA amps never fail to sound top notch.   One of the few tube amps out there I would seriously love to own. 

I didn't see anyone with a name tag or label. I was there Saturday and Sunday. Even the name tags of the vendors were difficult to read. It would be nice to meet a few people from here. Let's make something happen next year. Joe

Mapman, if there's no statute of limitations on an answer; I got a good listening session on the MBL set up. I was in there while a reviewer occupied the sweet spot. I thought it was the best at the show. It sounded like it would not fatigue at any level. It was easy to discern every note and vocal. Sadly, I'll never own it 

I went back late Sunday and tried to buy the MBL C41 streamer at a demo discount.  No dice.  It was already spoken for.  “But we’d be happy to find you a brand new one.”  I don’t mean to sound snarky.   They were actually quite nice to speak with. 

My first audioshow so failed to write down things that were sounding good:

Have read about Planar speakers and Horn speakers but finally got to hear both, the Planars were 9 feet high, they were playing Louie Armstrong and he imaged like he was 15 feet tall.

The realistic saxaphone on the horn speakers was amazing.

Paradigm Persona 9H were intoxicating, considering them as my next speaker, the built in amps for the woofers and room correction features added alot.
