Room, electronics, and much source material that I wasn't familiar with, but yes, I do plan a proper visit sometime soon under more optimum conditions. I didn't comment on the bass performance because the room modes destroyed most of the definition that should have existed. That said, it was still the best sound at the show by a country mile.

150Hz is lower than I thought. That partially explains the use of a 7" driver. Quite a large frequency range.

I've heard the V1's in such a room and system, and yes it did. It was quite an experience.

Hello, I'm here too.
Or maybe Sunday morning I'll wake up and walk downstairs and lo & behold -- a pair of Alexx's are in my living room -- so this thread won't apply (to me). Love it Mr BP. You're comical & my mind races for a response. Best Sir, Bob

I suggested Marc to Joey because he had commented multiple times. I suspect on Sunday morning you'll still be here and your Alexias will still be downstairs. |

I have demoed the Focal Sopra and Utopia lines. I wanted to like them, but was not impressed.
