It was 65 to 85 here - quite variable during the afternoon.
Supposed to be 55 degrees and rainy tomorrow.
Wandering Around
HALCRO and Acoustic Zen*
A new color for Halcro dm88 amplifiers. Matches the Acoustic Zen
speakers - but more to the point, ... but I think I might prefer
piano black.

The rear of the dm8 pre
The new SSP220

Wandering Around some more...
The new Pioneer PRO-111FD for about $4K with the video from last
year to show the deep blacks it is capable of.
Sharp is bringing the web to the liviingroom
KRELL (more later)
McIntosh
Everyone else photographs the front, so we'll
show you the rears.

Hmmmm....
WILSON AUDIO
Wilson shows off their Alexandria loudspeakers for the first time
at a show [that we are aware of]
Thor's Hammer subwoofer. Bigger better bass from Wilson.
OK, more Alexandria photos. Neli said somebody
should smack all these people treating the Alexandria X2 with such
disrespect... getting their finger prints all over these beauties.
Luckily I was focused on taking the photos, and did not see what
was going on - otherwise we would of tag-teamed the crowd, or
smiled at them like salespeople - that usually works :-). -
or at least informed them of the $145K [last I heard] price,
anyway. High prices usually make people a little more respectful -
considering they were only on static display.
The Alexandria is only about a foot? taller than
the MAXX III
SONY
Martin Logan showing off the insides of one of their speakers.
The new Martin Logan CLK full-range electrostatic loud speaker.
Their DESCENT subwoofer
TEAC / ESOTERIC
No Esoteric components on display - but I thought
this was cool.
