Month: February 2023

Florida 2023

The Three Amigos: Volti, BorderPatrol and Triode Wire Labs | FLAX 2023

February 28, 2023 matthewpartrick 3

It’s almost impossible for me to be impartial or objective when I visit The Three Amigos room at a high-end audio show. I’ve been consistently blown away by the sound that Greg Roberts (Volti Audio), […]

Florida 2023

Gershman Acoustics and VAC | FLAX 2023

February 28, 2023 Marc Phillips 1

It’s been a few years since I last visited Gershman Acoustics at a high end audio show. The last time was the first time, I believe–I had introduced myself to Eli and Ofra Gershman because […]

MC Audiotech: Another Take | FLAX 2023

February 28, 2023 Editorial Staff 0

Room 1009 at the Florida Audio Expo showcased another brand-new component with which I was not familiar, namely the MC Audiotech TL-12 loudspeaker, retailing for $25k, with plenty of options available. MC Audiotech has made […]

Florida 2023

TriangleART | FLAX 2023

February 27, 2023 matthewpartrick 0

Room 418 at the 2023 Florida Audio Expo featured kit solely from California-based company TriangleART, all from the mind of Tom Vu, and I found it quite impressive. The speakers were the TriangleART Metis horns, […]

Florida 2023

Triode Wire Labs, BorderPatrol, Innuos, and a double-shot of Volti | FLAX 2023

February 27, 2023 Scot Hull 2

They’ve been showing together for so long that I have a hard time remembering when the last didn’t. Triode Wire Labs, BorderPatrol Audio Electronics, and Volti Audio are, for better or worse, linked in audio recent […]

Florida 2023

Electrocompaniet, Triangle and Wireworld | FLAX 2023

February 27, 2023 Editorial Staff 0

I walked into room 713 at the Florida Audio Expo was met with a very pleasant surprise. While the Wireworld cables and Electrocompaniet amplification in the room were not new to me, I haven’t spent […]

Florida 2023

Philip O’Hanlon and Graham Audio | FLAX 2023

February 26, 2023 Marc Phillips 1

The story of Philip O’Hanlon and the Graham Audio LS8/1 loudspeaker goes back a couple of years, when my audio mentor Gene Rubin sent me a message to review it ASAP. After all these years, […]

Florida 2023

Audio Note Florida | FLAX 2023

February 26, 2023 Marc Phillips 0

It felt strange to travel all the way across the country, Portland to Tampa, leaving behind a system of mostly Audio Note UK components just to wander into another room filled with mostly Audio Note […]

Florida 2023

Endow Audio Bravura 12 | FLAX 2023

February 26, 2023 Marc Phillips 0

A few years ago I was personally invited to visit Endow Audio at FLAX 2020, the first and only other time I covered the Florida Audio Expo. Endow loudspeakers featured an ambitious Point Array speaker […]

Florida 2023

LTA and Credo (and Meitner!) | FLAX 2023

February 25, 2023 Marc Phillips 2

I’m a big fan of Linear Tube Audio. I’m a big fan of Credo of Switzerland. So when I walked into the LTA and Credo room at the Florida Audio Expo in Tampa, I was […]

Florida 2023

MC Audiotech and ModWright | FLAX 2023

February 25, 2023 Marc Phillips 1

In the MC Audiotech and ModWright room, Mark Conti and Paul Paddock brought their long-awaited new speaker, the TL-12. If you remember, I reviewed the larger MC Audiotech Forty-10 last year and encountered a couple […]

Florida 2023

Jeff Joseph and the Magic TV Screen | FLAX 2023

February 25, 2023 Marc Phillips 2

You already know I love Jeff Joseph and his speaker designs. He usually makes it to my Top 5 at every show where he exhibits. But at FLAX 2023 he pulled a quiet little trick […]

Florida 2023

Just Audio and the Wharfedale Linton | FLAX 2023

February 25, 2023 Marc Phillips 6

The Just Audio room was mixed in with the multiple MoFi Distribution rooms on the sixth floor at the 2023 Florida Audio Expo, so I thought this was another MoFi room due to the presence […]

Florida 2023

Fine Sounds Americas | FLAX 2023

February 24, 2023 Marc Phillips 1

At some point during the 2023 Florida Audio Expo, Scot Hull asked me if I had visited the Fine Sounds Americas room. I’d noticed it during my wanderings, but I didn’t go in right away. […]

Florida 2023

Ampsandsound and Acora | FLAX 2023

February 24, 2023 Marc Phillips 0

The 2023 Florida Audio Expo was the destination where I, your humble narrator, got to finally hear some of the brands and products that have had the other PTA writers swooning over the last year. […]

Florida 2023

Audio Group Denmark…in Florida! | FLAX 2023

February 24, 2023 Marc Phillips 4

I’ve just completed four whole reviews of the gear I received from Audio Group Denmark. The last, which covers all of the Ansuz cables and accessories, should appear as soon as we wrap up our […]

Florida 2023

Acora Acoustics VRC-1 | FLAX 2023

February 23, 2023 Marc Phillips 2

The biggest surprise at the 2023 Florida Audio Expo shouldn’t have been a surprise at all. But the debut of the new flagship Acora Acoustics VRC-1 loudspeakers seemed to tower above all else at FLAX, […]

Florida 2023

EMT and MoFi | FLAX 2023

February 23, 2023 Marc Phillips 3

I’m going to tell you my favorite discovery during the 2023 Florida Audio Show, the single new product that excites me the most. It’s the EMT 928 II turntable, brought to the United States by […]

Florida 2023

Aretai Contra 100S and Viablue | FLAX 2023

February 23, 2023 Marc Phillips 0

I’ve had my eye on those Aretai Contra 100S two-way monitors ($9,000/pr USD) ever since I auditioned them at AXPONA last April and Munich last May. These are distinctive two-way monitors from Latvia that use […]

Florida Audio Expo 2023 Highlights and Best Of Show | The Occasional Podcast

February 22, 2023 Brian Hunter 0

“We are getting the band back together.” If you know the movie that quote references, then you probably are an audiophile of a certain age. Well, me and the band did get back together this weekend, […]
