There are locally released original BDs now, distributed by HVN, the disc is pressed in Hong Kong. It's not the same as the Deltamac release, that's for Hong Kong market. Sometimes these local original BDs have exactly same cover as US version, but I notice the print quality is bad. Those cheap BDs are highly suspected. And sometimes got Malay subtitles too. However, some US version BDs got Malay subtitles as well even though not printed on the cover. One example is Unbreakable (Bruce Willis). |

QUOTE(sonyman @ Jul 24 2009, 11:38 PM) the best speaker i think on show is german physics, this one, if you are there you must experience what audiophile is all about, talk about dynamics, timber balance, warmness, impact, this one has it all, powered by moon by simaudio. bro, i agreed with you. this was the best setup that i heard. according to the salesperson, the speakers are omnidirectional and the whole setup cost > RM400k.not sure got other setup cost more than this? ![]() This post has been edited by gocitygo: Jul 27 2009, 07:11 PM |

rick wong said, anyone who has 200k now put on the floor and take the entire setup back including the wires, hahaha, if i had i had taken them already.
anyway that was the offer just now, imagine the speaker, moon amps and cables and also all the racks at 200k, i think it is a steal, the speaker is very dynamic, and great in impressing your cocky friends, and make their head come down abit, actually the marten design supreme was also very good as well, marten design setup i think more expensive then german physiks, but the speaker is different, the other thing i find interesting is the sunfire speaker system and sub. very nice, reminds me of velodyne, |

so there goes the KLIAV 2009, for the past 2 days that i attended, i didnt regret much only that i was not prepared to buy many AVR items that were on sale, so much that sometimes you wonder, if spending so much money on the AVR you buy, then all you know during AV fest they throw price like crazy, very bad sometimes, no value, cannot sell to upgrade, but anyway overall i had 2 chances to listen to german physiks, and the very good chance to listen to kondo ongaku, which is so different from the rest of the setup, it is a world of its own. no rock, no bass, very very quiet and calm music, so soothing.
i only bought CD;s DVD's, the cd's ok lah 10 bucks only, i think some of the hifi cd is too expensive, they probably mark the price up then give you a 20% discount, giving you no choice but to buy, i refuse to buy, i rather go to the shop and buy, same price after discount, so i rather not support the cd seller, i support the hifi equipment seller, and if you realize, on friday, they sell DVD like david foster at 40, today they sell at 45, they say wrong price, so i fought for 40, in the end dapat also, i also bought RCA caps from C&O Telos brand, sounds good, Added on July 26, 2009, 9:43 pm QUOTE(gocitygo @ Jul 26 2009, 09:34 PM) not i bargain, the seller offered, for today, who can put 200k on the table take the setup home.

How much was C&O selling the Telos RCA caps and speaker caps at the AV Fair?
Added on July 27, 2009, 11:54 am QUOTE(moomoos @ Jul 26 2009, 11:56 PM) you mean the Telco's RCA, its teflon coated on the inner. seems to reduce something or resonnance.... but Yeah, I meant the Telos caps. I see they have the RCA caps and the speaker caps.it really tightens and strengthens the overall sound, (not so noisy) if its the telcos, try the speaker plugs, if you have bi-wirable spk inputs, but using a pair of cable, plug two 2 at the other, Guarantee.... you wouldnt want to take it out... You've tried them both before? Do you know if C&O loans out demo units? I'm normally skeptical of such things so I'd like to try before I buy This post has been edited by jchong: Jul 27 2009, 11:54 AM |
