This report is going to be a little different than other show

reports, and even our own past reports. Partly due to the

deluge of (mis)information bombarding our poor brains

every day, and partly due to the historical abuses specific

to our beloved high-end audio industry, many people are

just too distrustful these days to believe an honest report

about the sound at a show. Who can blame them?

RMAF is one huge party of like-minded people. It is a blast.

People are smiling, playing their favorite music, making fun

of Diana Krall, cranking up their systems to 110dB at all

hours, hearing new music, putting together systems never

before seen and perhaps never again to be seen,

displaying new kick-ass state-of-the-art equipment - and

more and this is what we are going to try and report on in

this particular report.

Exhibitors have been and are invited to submit more

photos, ads, tech sheets and press releases for their

equipment, as well as their own stories about their

experiences exhibiting at the show this year. This is a

wide-open report about a celebration in audiophiledom and

you, the reader, have a front row ticket. Enjoy!
