This is going to be a good show, I'll be there with our SL-1200's and SP-10, Guy will have his amps, and Marco might make an appearance on our stand for people to chat to?

Many dealers, including us will be offering up to 20% on almost anything, its a show thing don't you know...........

I'm sure it will be a great show, Dave, and would urge others to attend. I'd love to go but two 'long treks' down south in the one week (with going to yours on Tuesday) might be too much, so we'll see :)

I'm sure that 'vinyl alley' will go down very well, though ;)

Marco.

An enjoyable show this year, I thought. More so than last autumn's Heathrow effort, certainly, with more of an upbeat feel: I was actually welcomed rather than appraised as I walked into several rooms, which must mean there are more graduates from Marketing 101 around than before!

Demos were more professionally handled overall, with fewer examples of juvenile over-loudness - or was it iPod-induced deafness on the part of room staff? I walked out of only one room where the suits at the back undermined their own efforts by talking too loudly while music was playing. (Sure, I could have told them to be quiet but it was my day off and there was much else to hear elsewhere!)

The new Guru floorstanders were more persuasive than the standmounts had been last time but £8000-persuasive, I'm not sure! And it was nice to be able to just walk into a room to hear an (impressive) Absolute Sounds 'Studio' system without having to book in advance!

Great LPs from Diverse and Stamford (my main reason for going, as ever, to be honest!), interesting news from Dave here about SP10 developments and freebie copies of HiFi World and HiFi Critic - all in all a very pleasant day out, though it did make me want to get back to my system at home!

Well done to most concerned, I'd say.

It realy was a good show this year, got quite a few records from Stamford. The Absolute Sounds system was fantastic especially when it was playing opera.
