RE: My 2016 Axpona Report

I really couldn't pick a favorite. There were a lot of good sounding products.

I will set the mega dollar stuff aside and mention a couple things that really impressed me.

* With that being said, I still have to mention Thrax's, Lyra, stand mount, truly amazing in it's ability to extend frequency response and sound good. Probably the best stand mount I've ever heard.

* I loved the Audio Alchemy, before even asking price or other questions, then, when I heard someone can buy that level of sound for what it costs, I was amazed.

* I checked Audiophile Direct and their website isn't showing anything but a place to be emailed when it comes up. However, the Orum Cantus speaker at $2500.00 a pair is a killer value. They sounded to my ears better than many others costing a lot more.

* The Sonist I thought was cool, not only did it sound good, it offered an alternative to horns and single driver for SET users.

I was really like a kid in a candy store :). I have to hand to those companies like Audio Alchemy who can bring great sound at an obtainable price. Some may argue my definition of "obtainable", but considering you can pay 2 or 3k for an A/V receiver these days is where I'm coming from.
