I'm Dennis.
TdP did develop his own loudspeaker a while ago.(And he offered me a job in '91, but then went broke).
The Graham audio LS 5/8 is not a true one because it is passive, the original being active. I used that woofer, (the old original) in my own design with the Heils, and BBC engineers were quick to say that they thought this a good move because the original 34mm tweeter they felt was flawed. The speaker is as big as a washing machine.
Yes PP has a signature, but it was a great move forward from Bextrene which used to shatter under high excursions, as well as needing applied damping.
Interesting looking tonearm/TT from De Baer.
Magnet force anti-skating, the three pole design claims to eliminate resonance. I bet it doesn't. Eliminate is a strong word to use here, I think.
Found in a Rockport Lyra/Soulution room.
Some very funky looking kit from CanEVER Audio. Big poster about the DAC, but they didn't appear to have one there.
On static display which is a bit of a shame, hearing some of it would have been nice.
I therefore can't say much about it so follow the above website link if curious. I like the quirky look - it's pretty original. No idea of cost but it looks way too well made to be cheap.
Has anyone ever heard any of this gear or have anything to say about it? I'd love to hear that DAC in my system. Not because I need to change DACs - just because.
EDIT: Actually the black one (2nd pic down) is the Zero Uno Plus which is an analogue board strapped into what would otherwise be the Zero Uno DAC. The green one might be the Zero Uno DAC but says it is a digital preamp on the fascia below Zero Uno.
Maybe. God knows what the one marked La Fenice actually is. If anyone works it out...

You should find 271 pics here on OneDrive, if you like pic surfing.
Anyone can use them for any purpose. They have some compression and the originals are definitely better when zooming, but I optimised the compression to produce 250K odd jpegs, so they are pretty good. It is possible OneDrive compressed them further I haven't checked recently, but a while ago it definitely seemed to leave uploads untouched.
