It was honestly one of those systems (with Blades and D800) on Saturday that just blew you away. We get treated to so many great systems upstairs when doing demos that I think you notice it even more when a combination surpasses great and becomes phenomenal. You may think I'm heaping the praise on a little heavy but it destroyed the Aurender W20 that we held as our reference digital component!
See you on Saturday

Alasdair is right, it did sound very good indeed, sensational in fact. Better than AIR 3? I have never heard AIR 3, and I believe Alasdair has not had time yet to try it either. However, was it better than the W20? Yes, comfortably. So I suspect AIR 3 might struggle a bit in this particular head to head. In the interests of balance, AIR 3 is cheaper ........
