Just back from RMAF

What? Guidocorona contributing to The Absolute Sound? In what way? Man, maybe there's hope after all for the audio reviewing industry. Did Guido hear anything that impressed him at the show?

Sherod,
Yes, Guido is published in the current issue of TAS. He reviewed some self-powered Quad speakers. He and I tagged team all the houseplants in the hotel for help getting around and both saw lots of things we liked. I'm sure he'll jump on this thread in a day or two to give us his color commentary. It's great to see so much that one's only read about actually performing in front of you.
and Hey! The editorial staff of TAS are all nice guys. We attended an Ask the Editors forum and also got to have some individual face time with them. They were articulate and had very realistic views re. the state of high end audio.

I echo the praise of the Maxx2's. I literally had shiver down mine spine listening to them.

The bottom end was unlike anything I have ever heard. I rarely listen to classical music (if ever). They played Stravinsky and there was a drum/gong that was stunning!
