AXPONA 2025

I went to the show and listened to the JA room and left pretty quickly.  The music was too loud and the bass was overwhelming the sound.  Bass overhang negatively impacted the mids.  Unfortunate.  The speakers were beautiful to look at and the room was full of folks enjoying them so perhaps I am the minority opinion on this room.  

We had a great time at the show and the time just flew by! 

Understood Don.  I went to Axpona last year and heard the same bass heavy sound in the JA room.  These two times are my only experiences with JA speakers so I assumed they just sound that way and did not look for a different seat or come back. Yes, shows can be a difficult place to really hear gear as we all know.  
 

I was impressed with the Pearl Acoustics room and the beautiful music coming out of those 4 inch single driver speakers.  Wow! Loved the Wolf Von Langa Ultima room with Sw1X tube  gear.  Finally,  the PS Audio room sounded great regardless of the particular model speaker playing.  From monitor to the biggest floor stander, they all sounded just terrific!
