Axpona 2022 what impressed you?


I'll start. The Borrensen 01 playing Otis Taylor 'Resurrection blues' was stunning! I also enjoyed the Legacy Aeris on the first floor playing Nils lofgren 'Keith don't go'. In the smaller rooms there was a $4k pair of speakers with what looked like 18" woofers and a horn tweeter that performed well. While the kef ref 3 sounded harsh the ref 5 in a similar small room sounded great just reminding me how much incremental set up affects the demo. I only had a few hours on saturday and missed many rooms due to crowds and would enjoy hearing others impressions from the show.

Perlisten in the regular room, the tower with 3 tweeters sounded really good too and if you’re local to axpona I think simply stereo has a pair I may check out 

Styleman I think you are mistaken about the price or model of the Legacy Areis. Those go for around $21K a pair. I think the Focus (which are also amazing) go for $10-11K. Legacy speakers ars incredible and offer a lot for the money.

I too was super impressed by the Alta Audio room! I have never heard that much bass energy from a tower speaker! I missed what Amp as well…
