Anyone going to the NY Audio show today to Sunday

I was at the show from 10 AM all the way to 6 PM on Saturday, and, as this was the first time I ever attended a high end audio show, I truly enjoyed every single minute of my experience. It was great to see and hear so much stuff that I've only been able to read about all these years.

I was especially impressed by the Brodmann speakers driven by Electrocompaniet electronics, the Vivid Giyas driven by the Mola Mola class D amplifiers, the beautiful sounding Harbeth 30.1's, the Zellaton speakers in the exquisite wood paneled "former office" of Leona Helmsley, the Raidho speakers and VAC electronics combination in the Sound by Singer room (Welcome back to New York Mr. Singer !), and the wonderful music in the Robert Lighton Audio rooms.

It was a great experience speaking with Steve Guttenberg and Kalman Rubinson, two fine gentlemen whose writings I have admired for many years. And it was a lot of fun listening to the big KEF Reference speakers with Cary amplification and sharing in the joy of hearing the Beach Boys Pet Sounds album with a roomful of folks in the "Classic Album Sundays" room.

But perhaps the most memorable experience for me was sitting with Mr. Dan D'Agostino listening to his new Momentum amplifiers and the Wilson Audio Alexia speakers in the Innovative Audio room. Bravo !!

My compliments to everyone who worked so hard to put this NY Audio Show together. It was fantastic !

Some quick thoughts-
-Great show
-Loved the live music. Lori Lieberman was really special but the frequent short sets in that Foyer on the 5th floor were great.
-I think I'm getting to be a tube snob. I only heard one solid state system that I liked at all, the Raidho/Merrill Class D system.
-It's amazing how many $100K systems can be put together in one place. OK, maybe not. What's truly amazing is how many $100K-$200K (and up) systems can be put together that have great soundstaging, deep bass, pin-point imaging, amazing HF extension, and that do not sound anything like music!!!
-Did VPI have an exclusive right to exhibit 'tables? Not exactly correct, but I bet they had 90% of the 'tables. And how come Merrill was using a VPI instead of their own?

-Best sound- Singer room w VAC and Raidho.
-Other impressive rooms
Co-incident/Audio Loft
Joseph Pearls/VPI/"new" Citations- but what was up w
the 3 channel set up?
TRL dude/Allnic/MAD Barons/Care audio
Merrill/Raidho
-Best affordable speaker- the stacked Sjofen "clues"...for $2K they are a relative bargain, esp. for uptempo music.

Did anyone get a chance to listen to the Mytek 192/DSD dac?

I went on Friday and thought the Zellaton's were among the few I thought sounded really good, together with the Raidho and Brodmann.

All-in-all, an excellent show.

Listened to some very high end speakers..over 100K..was not in awe

I find it interesting that although Coincident is a small company and does not have dealers he is mentioned a few times at every show he attends! Obviously he knows something about sound.
