United Home Audio and the big old JBL Hartsfields did not have the best sound,but they were playing some of the best music with Master Tape Quality

Thanks @honestaquarian for sharing your photos of the Festival.
I'm really glad I got the opportunity to participate in this years event. I did slightly mix up the time I thought the show was ending at on Sunday though, and ended up arriving with only 45 minutes of the show remaining. Bummer. At least I was able to sample the new Technics C700 Series. They look cool but sounded a bit lean in the lower frequencies in my opinion.
Just a head count. Who all went to the event?2ch rig: Speakers: Magnepan LRS w/Magna Riser stands Preamplifier: Parasound P5 Amplifier: Parasound A23 CDP: Pioneer DV-563A Cables: Wireworld Equinox 7 XLR ICs, Wireworld Ultraviolet 7 USB, AudioQuest Q2s, AudioQuest NRG X(preamp)
Standby: LSi9s with VR3's Fortress mods -
You're quite welcome
Count me in as having attended obviously -

Can't really say there was one favorite,as there were several that had various things that I liked and other things that I didn't like.
