Words really don't do justice for the monstrosities that made up the ESD Acoustics room, a Chinese company new to me. The hosts were very nice but none of us could get over the sheer amount of equipment that made up this system. We listened to it, enjoyed it, but still don't really understand what was going on here, I mean, just look at all the electronics, holy crap. By the way, they were bigger in person than in the pictures. We think that gold thing on the top is a CD player but we're not entirely sure, maybe it dispensed potpourri, who knows. Also, they told me that EACH basshorn alone weighs close to 250 kgs. yikes. As for the sound, they sounded nice...interesting but very diffuse, like a large wall of sound but hard to tell with the demo material. We'll be back here to demand different songs!
