    Great job Paul. Thanks for sharing.

    How did the chi-Fi Open baffles compare to the Spatials?

    Thanks for taking the time to post up these pics.

    I couldn't help but notice all of the young attendee's in your 2nd post. Cool stuff. I can only hope that an appreciable number of those kids took the time to check out some of the 'big boy' stereo systems at the show!

    Re: 2015 TAVES ( Toronto Audio Video Entertainment Show )

    Hi guys, the turnout Friday was pretty good. I didn't get to see most rooms yet; was busy working our 3 rooms and the booth in the headphone area.

    This is what we are displaying and the rooms we are in :

    Kensington (4th Floor)
    D'agostino preamp and monoblock amps, Wilson Sasha 2, MSB Diamond Dac IV Plus/MSB
    Universal Media Transport Plus, Nordost Valhall V2 cables

    Room 453 (4th Floor)
    McIntosh C2500 tube preamp/Mc452 Power amp/Mc275 Tube amp/MB100 Media Bridge/MCD550 CD player/ MPC1500 Line Conditioner/MEN200 Room Perfect/XR50 and XR100 speakers

    Wadia a315 Stereo Amp/a340 monoblocks/m330 Media Bridge/a321 DAC.

    Room 261 (Second Floor)
    Wyred4Sound DAC2 DSD SE/mPRE/mAMPs
    Spatial Hologram M2 Turbo speakers
    Magnepan MMG

    Headphone area
    Audeze and Focal Headphones/headphone amps from Woo Audio including the WA7 Fireflies/WA6 SET TransformerCoupled Headphone amp/WA6 SE with separate tube power supply/McIntosh Headphone Amp and tons more. All the items in the booth are at great show prices.

    Francesco and Harry from D'Agostino are on hand today in the Kensington room to answer any questions you might have. Vince Galbi from MSB was able to drop by yesterday. Dale Mackintosh from McIntosh and Wadia (no relation!) will be in Room 453. All 4 are amazing guys, a real credit to their companies. Vince was incredibly helpful in the set up.

    I'm floating between all our exhibits so hopefully I'll get to meet you if you are attending. Hopefully I'll be able to visit the rooms on Sunday and report on impressions.
    Industry disclaimer: I am a dealer of D'Agostino Electronics, Wilson Audio, McIntosh, Devialet, KEF, Magnepan, Martin Logan, Wadia PMC, Nordost, VPI, Spatial speakers, Audeze, Wyred 4 Sound etc, so anything I say related to Audio/Video is most likely biased...not that there's anything wrong with that!

    After I listened the Raidho now I totally understand how some owners having an issue with bass. They have this wonderful sweet ribbon tweeter however in my opinion the Raidho try to pushed beyond what this small drivers can do and just showing their limit.

    For me Tannoy, Tenor with Kronos was superb and congrats to Mark Jones ( Tone Audio's favourite room of the show so far ) and the Estelon with Ayre was excellent with nice interior as well also the Grant Fidelity was showing very exciting open baffle speakers with very low price.I would purchase that over Spatial IMHO.

    I will report back more after sunday.

    I didn't hear them, but I believe both Paul (AS) and David from Tenor were both impressed with the sound.
