Re: Some snapshots from HE 2007

"4. Musical variety was abysmal."

Normal for an audio show.....

"Now, I understand why companies wouldn't want to play poorly recorded music, but I personally don't see much enjoyment in listening to 'X' singer singing in 'Y' language recorded in 'Z' country."

If the music's good, I don't care what country it's from or what language it's sung in....

"It was difficult to find any room with real toe-tapping music that had some cajones."

You mean those box-shaped percussion instruments?? [-;

Seriously, I think it's more the lack of decent digital playback than the music. For the former is often mistaken for the latter.

I cited this problem at the 2006 show. It got depressing.

"5. My personal favorite room was the Weiss room."

Supposedly some of the finest digital front ends currently available.... But the expense will often require a second mortgage. The main hope is to snag one used.... But you may have to wait a while before such opportunity.
