| RMAF 2014 Observations I'd like to see more shows like this but perhaps on a smaller scale and various ones with various vendors that tour to various cities over the course of the year. Maybe this would provide a good alternative to teh demise of B&M shops in many a... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz I'm sure all these products sound fine. Each has their fans.Were the HF wires at RNAF? I'd be curious what others using other products currently thought if so. | |

| Is high-end audio dying, if not dead already??? High end means costs more money on teh grand scale of things. Plain and simple.One can say that if it sounds good its high end I suppose, but it isn't.I can buy very nice shoes and clothes in many places, but Nordtrom is where the high end stuff i... | |

| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Is it reasonable to expect a system to sound good just because they use a certain kind or wires? Even 6 digit ones?Still, I would expect good quality sound out of any 5 digit system or higher even though each will have their preferences. Otherwise... | |
| RMAF 2014 Observations Thanks for taking the time to post your detailed impressions. IF any others have the time I'm sure there are many like me who would like to know what the average Joe thought about stuff at this show.The Lansch speakers are way out of my league bud... | |
