I enjoyed my day at the show, and here’s my tenpennerth. WHF stand was good, thanks to the guy who’s got the Epicon 2 speakers at home (didn’t get his name) very helpful. The 2 TVs demo was interesting, queues were better in the afternoon and I preferred the OLED but that may have be because the 4K was larger and doing more upscaling bit of bad luck for me though if most companies are only going to make 4Ks in the future. Good choice of films used.
My music taste must be poor as there was nothing playing anywhere of my taste so it my affect my opinions
The Naim Statement was disappointing, too much noise from the back of the room (aircon or something) you could hear on the quieter pieces, and a rare selection of music played. They talked about how it was designed to be good at all volume levels and then only played at one level, I’m glad I can’t afford it.
Never got to hear the Kef Blades as the door was always shut, the PMC room was always too full so never got to hear those either.
My favourites were Decent Audio with Unico CDE + Pathos amp and Usher speakers, lovely warm sound, The Michell Orbe (I’m biased) Kudos S10s and Proac D30s. I thought the Clearaudio sounded too clinical. The Tannoy WRGR was very good and the Astell & Kern was impressive, that’s about all I can remember at midnight seeing as I was up at 6. I reckon I’ll go again next year.
