The veneering is top quality, did you hear them Stitch?Keith.

Yes, the quality of making is top but to be fair to other manufacturers, they do a good job also. I think, the finish is more important than the sound quality for a lot of people.

I listened to them for a longer time, but unfortunately I can't give a real comment about their abilities. Software was from CD and it was typical Show music, a female Singer with a Guitar/Piano or similar, or that usual bing-bang-boom from digital mixing desks. So, it was a kind of sound which was in a league of 30 other demos I heard.

I don't blame the poor guys (the Demo guys) who have to listen to that pain all day long, maybe a lot of audiophiles enjoy exactly that kind of music at home, I don't know. Rating a component in forums is always based on "I didn't like it" or " I loved it" or when you read about the best sound of show you will also find comments which are the opposite. I always be neutral, I am curious what the System will tell me and when I have some luck, the Demo Man has something I know and he plays it.

Just for example, I was in a room with a System for about 10k, complete. Maybe even less, Preamp for 3k, Phonostage for 1.5k etc. and the Demo Man had a lot of originals, Living Stereos, Sinatra a really wide spectrum of nice music. Everyone enjoyed it there, he got good comments, even from visitors who didn't like the equipment for whatever reasons (too ugly, too cheap ...), but he simply made a good demo.

Horn speakers are not so rare at that Show in Germany, there are a few designs, some made me escape after 2 minutes and some are interesting. But everything has a fan group :-) Don't know what is the reason for, but they exist.
A interesting company is Acapella from Germany. When you have the chance for a demo, try to visit.
