I thought they sounded very nice and certainly one of the best sounds at the show.

Thanks. Do you know what was upstream?

This is from the Show guide:
Neat Acoustics loudspeakers deliver genuine audiophile performances from impossibly small and elegant enclosures. The new EKSTRA loudspeaker and its smaller sibling, the MINISTRA, are being played throughou
the Show. Both feature iso-baric bass loading and true ribbon tweeters. Norma Audio of Italy is rapidly gaining a reputation for the manufacture of beautifully crafted and exquisite-sounding hi-fi equipment. The award-winning REVO IPA 70 and IPA 140 amplifiers are showcased by UK importers Hi-Fidelity. Neat and Norma - a stunning combination!

Excellent blog. I read (nearly) all of it. Interested you gave sound of the show to Kudos. I have friends with rather excellent Kudos/Linn/Naim. Think I’ll volunteer to rep for Von Gaylord next year; I’ll spend a long weekend laughing.

Yes, great blog, a lot of work gone into that, thanks. A nice, succinct summary of each room.

Does anyone remember what electronics Michell were using in their room? Speakers look interesting, was the amp a Sugden?

Great blog @sunbeamgls - thank you

I wasn’t at Bristol but went to Ascot. I too found the Kudos Titans one of the best sounds of the show

Going by the photo on sumbeamgls' blog, I'd guess Sugden DAP-800 pre? And is that the matching FBA-800 power amp sitting behind the racks?
