I was particularly impressed with the sound in the showroom at the Imperial Palace.
Best/Worst sound at CES and T.H.E. Show?
I was just wondering about the best and worst sounds at both shows, and what you guys had to say about it. My votes are as follows.
Best sound at CES: Musical Surroundings room (Clearaudio, Aesthetix, Avalon, Ayre)
Best sound for the money at CES: Kirksaeter
Worst Sound at CES: Zu Cables room
Best sound at the Show: the first day it was Kharma, but the last day it was the Convergent Audio room. They made a cable change, and it made all the difference.
Worst sound at the Show: Whatever room I heard that had those dang Avantgarde's in them. Good god...those things sound like a megaphone on steriods. The parents voices from "Charlie Brown" come to mind.
Overall winner: Kirksaeter. I could listen to those speakers all day. And talk about price justification! Their $1300 speakers sound exactly $600 better than their $700 speakers, and that's how it SHOULD BE!!! Geez, if these guys are doing it this right, everybody else is doing it DEAD WRONG! Cheers!
