Agree! A really good show this year!
Didn't get to see/hear everything because of the 7 hour round trip but it was interesting to see a 50/50 split between trade and public (well.....it felt like that!)
I also thought that the Spendor, Leema, Neat and (especially) the Audio Note rooms were particularly splendid!
The Devialet Phantom's were truly awesome but the choice of music to demo them: what WAS that???
My absolute favourite thing, 'though, was the widespread use of turntables as primary source; I haven't seen that for MANY years: a really pleasant surprise and I would therefore add Rega, Michell, Roksan, Henley Designs et al to my list of 'favourite things'!
Not too much A/V either.
Really good show; wish that I could go again tomorrow or Sunday but just can't face another journey like that!
