What an awesome picture set! I'll bet the show was just fantastic. Have to love our European brothers for their commitment to hi-end equipment. Back in the '70's when I lived in Waterloo there was a hi-end shop on the Chaussee that had a bunch of amazing gear for the time. I used to stand at the window and fawn over the gear. That's probably where the bug first bit.

No doubt the MBL equipment sounded amazing. I hope to hear a taste of it at the RMAF this fall.

Greg, thanks.
This hobby would only be half as nice if I could not share my enthusiasm with like-minded souls.

Freddie, thank you.

A nice short video about the event.
In Flemish, but the interviews with Mr Furbur are in English.
Yet get an idea about the shop.

Oui. Curiously enough I worked in Antwerpen for a short while. I was a bit lost with Flemish though.

Fortunately, we Flemish usually speak a little English.

I usually run into that problem with most things I want.
