I am too. The Wilson speaker room is well worth visiting. Can't believe how fast the Chord SPM 6000's are with the Kefs. Tomorrow I'll hit the MBL room and SET's on Sunday. Hope to see some of you there.

I'll stop by the Wilson room, but if they are playing them with the Spectral gear like last year, my guess I will be beating a hasty exit. The room last year was dreadful... the MBL room was like a breath of fresh air by comparison.

The Alexandria XLF's with Thor's Hammer SubwoCofer are being powered by 3 VTL Series l l Reference Monoblocks. VTL TL7.5 and VTL.5. dCS Scarlatti DIgital Playback System. One of the best systems I've heard so far at the show. Back tomorrow for more.

I have a ticket. Is it worth the hour drive to see?

If you like audio shows it should be worth the drive. I'm driving to it all 3 days and it's about 35 miles from where I am.

Tony,

Thanks for the update on the Wilson/VTL/DCS system. Any other standouts?
