Anyone Attend RMAF?

So apparently DSOTM and HC didn't impress anyone even more than in years past. You might expect that if things were truly progressing the "old standards" might get some new life breathed into them? Apparently not.

Now the burning question: Were there any magnets featured in the show? Rumour has it magnets is where the future of hifi rests its fate.

Or maybe in lieu of dying, more have just found what they were looking for these days and have less interest in all the rest.

That applies to me to some extent. I am still always interested to see and hear whats our there but not desperate or in great need anymore.

Czar, that could well account for it as well. :^)

Even RMAF, the topic of this thread seemed to be lacking buzz on this site this year compared to years past. What's up with that?

Young people can more easily afford and manage good headphones that sound not too bad these days even off a common iphone.

I wonder if any happened to wander to teh dark side of teh show and get hooked by all that soundstage and imaging their headphones lack.
