Unfortunately I pigging well forgot to go. When's the next one?


I don't know.

I was amused by the Lowther speakers for sale. Two 9" full-range (with
whizzer cone)
drivers side by side in the same cabinet, and rear horn loading.
They must be very directional, horizontally, but not vertically.

Then there was the second demo, which was rather flash.
A local speaker builder, I forgot the name after the shock of seeing the
prices.
Bookshelf speakers with separate bass boxes, active crossover and six
channels of power amp.
The centre of the midrange drivers had been messily filled in with
something,
either to add mass or stiffness. Whatever it was, it would have looked
better
without the fingerprints. Sounded impressive - perhaps excessively so!
