THE Show 2012 (at CES) – Sonist speakers, Exakte cables

[Sorry about the trickle of photos these last few days everybody. Busy here. But we are finally getting close to the end though. Kind of]

The Sonist room usually features almost entirely deHavilland electronics, but this year they changed things up a bit.

The Sonist ‘Concerto 3’ speakers

The Increcable TIA 280 integrated amplifier

The Increcable TIA 216 integrated amplifier

Some kind of deHavilland here.

THE Show 2012 (at CES) – Stillpoints rack, Exemplar Audio, Feastrex speaker drivers

These guys had one of the rooms with a ‘suite’ – an archway into a little sleeping room. We’ve exhibited in one of these kind of rooms further down the hall for a few years. Ain’t so bad, really – but it is not great either.

These Feastrex speaker drivers are getting a lot of buzz these last few years – supposed to do a lot of things right. Still need to build a good speaker around them though. Here? Sorry. I do not remember what these sounded like.
