Anyway, I stumbled across Hifi Pig's latest offering the other day, a summary of the Munich 2018 show. What can I say? This has to be the finest selection of hifi show photographs that I have ever seen compiled in one place. Genuinely good stuff. So what is your favorite piece of kit? I'm still trying to decide. Take a look and enjoy!

Not a bad write up is it? Hopefully this will go someway towards convincing you (and perhaps others) to attend next year.
On page 25 there is an advertisement for AudioNec and more specifically for their Diva XL speaker. This was being fed by a pair of Jadis power amplifiers and I have to say that for me it was one of the best sounds of the show, or at least right up there with some of the best. An odd looking speaker and pretty massive, the sound was just mesmerising. Let me be more specific, some of the best instrument timbre I have ever heard and the imaging of vocals that was so ghost-like and holographic you could literally reach out and touch it. With strings you just felt a wave of emotion take over. An absolute triumph of beauty and emotion!
