New York Audio Show 2013: Part 2

Okay, so this is a bit absurd, but yes, here it is, Part 2 of my coverage of the New York Audio Show, now online over at The Absolute Sound. And only a month late! In all fairness, Part 1 has been online that whole time. So there. Hit the [...]

New York Audio Show 2013: Part 1

Part 1 of the New York Audio Show coverage is now online over at The Absolute Sound. Hit the graphic for the link! I’ll have some more coming soon, with lots of [...]

Stereophile goes video

I actually had a good time with the Stereophile chaps this weekend (shh!). Had a tasty lunch with Michael Lavorgna and Stephen Mejias on Friday, and pretty much chased Ariel Bitran around all weekend. Okay, “chased” is strong. [...]

New York Audio Show starts tomorrow

Heading to NYC tomorrow for the New York Audio Show. It’s going to be a quite a show. It’s also going to be somewhat fractured, which is odd. For the second year in a row, a lot of competing events are also occurring. [...]

Audio Shows — Next Up

February 15, 2013

Just booked my travel arrangements for AXPONA in Chicago (March 8-10th). Looking forward to a quick visit to the Windy City and meeting up with the rest of the TAS team. Not sure if I’m actually going to be covering the show for TAS or not, [...]

Which audio shows — and why?

February 13, 2013

The first half of the year seems to be stuffed with audio show goodies. Obviously, I wish I could do all of them, but I’m not sure that’s reasonable or feasible. Which of these are priorities for you — or, better yet, which should [...]

NYAV12: Tweak Studio presents Burmester, Walker Audio, and an Evening of Euphoria

Arnold Martinez of Tweak Studio put on one of the poshest setups at the NYAV show. Burmester paired up with Walker Audio? It brought tears to my eyes. Okay, maybe not, but I was suitably impressed. No, really. This is an audiophile dreamland, with [...]

NYAV12 Round-up: Haniwa, Music First, Bricasti, GT Audio, Legacy, Lavry, D’Agostino

Every show leaves me with a handful of rooms that either didn’t work, didn’t work for me, weren’t actually functional, weren’t demoing music, or defied any easy classification. Nonetheless, I have pics of them worth sharing. [...]

NYAV12: LessLoss and Kaiser

Lessloss was showing the Kaiser Acoustics Vivace “High Performance Loudspeaker”, which starts at $42,500 depending on finish; they looked very impressive in Lamborghini Orange. Fitted out with Scanspeak drivers and a Mundorf AMT tweeter, [...]

NYAV12: GTT Audio presents YG, Brinkmann, Soulution

GTT Audio brought the big guns to the NYAV show. YG, Soulution, Brinkmann … size, power, skill — it was like a parking a Navy warship in the middle of a carnival. Let’s just say they got some attention. This room was way bigger [...]
