Wondering what people thought, so I'll make a start.
Best in Show:
The big Ventures. Hard to describe how good these speakers sounded without being sappy. IMHO, embarrassing to other "statement" speakers at the show, like the big TAD and Lansche.
I was mostly interested in high efficiency speakers. Especially good were:
Zu Defintion IV Devore Gibbon 93 and 96 Sonist C4
The Sonists, playing in the Snake River system, sounded especially good considering their (comparatively) reasonable price.
A few other noteworthy speakers were
Vapor's new 3 way
Vivid's space alien rendition of a mini-tower in the Tweak geek room
The Evolution mini-monitor was the best (reasonably) accessible speaker I heard, at 2500. Very good.
Opinions based on information overload, over a day and a half of listening.
Hi Jdoris, Focusing on efficient speakers, did you get a chance to hear the Vaughn Cabernet lls. I couldnt make the show and would welcome any comments and comparisons on these speakers.
