The non-organized listings..... (There might be some "room number" pictures.... Some of the images didn't rotate as they should have. Some "duplicate" images as well. I had some issues with my house that kind of made me to do this both late and rather sloppily.) The organized listings will come later (hopefully).

That must have been some work indeed. Good closeups! I'll be taking photos at CAS but I only have a Samsung S7 and a Sony camera.

My Nikon DSL gave it up so I'm hopeful the S7 will do the trick.

 

thank you very much (and as always)!, posted on June 18, 2019 at 05:50:52

I have taken the liberty, Johnny Appleseed-like, to scatter references to this thread/your links at a few other hifi fora.


Great work as always; thanks so much for sharing these images.


all the best,

I like simple. A line array is bad enough but that DoT cost over-run crossover? Yikes!

As long as it sounds good, I guess.

Some asked me if the pic taking diminished my enjoyment of the show..... My answer was that if anything, it enhanced my enjoyment of the show......

Great pictures again. It brought back memories for me and will for my friend.

Todd K, did you like the sound of any of these systems?
I am having a conversation in thread below about what the other poster perceives as the show makes one believe there are no redeemable features in high end audio, especially after factoring in the cost.

My Best In Show for THE Show 2019 was the Thrax Audio room, on the main floor.

My best solid state in show was the AGD Productions Room 408...... The "vacuum tubes" are actually Gallium Nitride solid state devices.

My best budget system in the show was the Joe N Tell Room 507.... "High end sound" that can be bought from Amazon.com.

Honorable Mention:

Arion Audio Room 523 (Runner-up solid state and tubes)....

Computer Audio Design Room 538 (Runner-up overall)....

Wyred 4 Sound Room 512 (Best bookshelf speakers Fritz Carrera Speakers) .....

Elite AV Distribution Room 412.....

Common Wave Hi-Fi Room 404 (Budget runner up)......

Thanks for the observations.

I did not see many of those (only there Sunday 2-5 pm), but noted 512 for Fritzspeakers and 408 for the sound from the little amps and their monitors, mentioned by me as well in previous postings.

It really seems every designer is racing to see who can make the ugliest gear.
However, Butcher Block Audio is hilarious, and add some crystals and fairy dust, and a levitating turntable and now you're talkin!
