Chord static display:

Yes, part of this has to do with the fact that silver-colored matte finishes are the eawsiest to photograph, at least with the digital cameras I have had experience with. But still, a nicely designed display, designed to fire up that ole equipment lust, is a (dangerous) thing to behold.

There is just something impressive about the way this speaker looks – I do not care if some people say it looks like a robot, I like it.

The MBLs were being played WAY LOUD (what? What did you say? I can’t hear you at all!), as usual. The bass seemed a little detached from the rest of the music, and still with the trademark inner-detail-less sound – but also still quite impressive.
