CES 2012 – Cardas, Conrad-Johnson, Neat, Running Springs Audio

This room featured the Neat ‘Ultimatum XL10’ speakers on Conrad-Johnson amps. I have a good deal of respect for Neat loudspeakers, having heard them setup by Jay Rein, the previous distributor. This system did not show off the speakers to best effect, in my opinion, and is not worth commenting on because the sound was such that little about the speakers.would be revealed by describing it.
