I'm doing a terrible job at keeping everyone posted on the show, I know - I think the best thing would be if you all just came up to see for yourself. Barring that . . . there sure are a lot of amazing setups here. Some are pretty wild just from room layout, and some are pretty wild from a product perspective. One that really caught my attention today was the Devialet Integrated Amplifier. ( http://www.devialet.com). The thing in the second shot is a poor picture of their very cool remote. I heard about it from Doug Schneider, and he made it sound like the future of audio had arrived . . . "Here's what makes the Devialet D-Premier so special: it uses a new kind of amplifier design that marries pure-class-A amplification with a class-D amplifier. The class-A portion is used for voltage, and the class-D section is used for current." - Doug Schneider, SoundStage CES article They've got a really interesting display, with all the pieces of the product opened up and set out for inspection. If you're stopping by the show, make it a point to check it out! They're across the lounge from our room. Don't worry - you definitely won't get lost trying to find us! Lots going on on the Bryston side of our demo room and tomorrow I'll update you on Andrew's new favourite toy . . . Until then!

Okay, I HAVE A WINNER!
and it's me! Awww, lucky me!
. . . okay, and Andrew . . .
We're going with LFR1100 (1100 for 11 drivers, and a suitably large number for a large speaker and a lotta technology . . .)
So it is officially named and we'll get the site updated accordingly.
In other fun news, 6 of you who entered a variation on the LFR name will also win! $100 gift certificates coming your way from Ian! Congratulations avjunkee, Adrian, Socketman,INANE, ClubNeon, and a401classic - you're all winners! I just think that you went with that because CatBrat used up about every other word in the dictionary...

Aw amn look what happens when you get busy and don't drop in for awhile, missed a chance at naming another speaker Can't wait till I can get a chance to hear these. they really are awesome! Impressive sound. It's great to be able to ear systems that cost a lot more and be able to compare them to something that you can actually buy. The cheapest system I've seen at the salon was a pair of cabasse CineOle which is priced at 1800$.. After that it climbed to 6000 for the cheapest of the cheapest.. Most speakers were priced around 10000$ (one Focal pair was priced at 96000$). They are normally using interconnects that cost most than the LFR1100. So far so good. It sounded better than a few 15000$ pairs
