Guys, i saw Robertson audio center/surround speakers for sale. Model is Silver 12.5. RM 99 per piece. thinking of getting a pair of it. The sound should be quite sweet, saw quite a number of ppl buying it. Since it is old stock, then no more warranty. Tempting to get a pair also.

I would give Robertson Audio a miss. Better to save up and buy other brands.

Musical Image demo AE-2000 and AX-200.

J.V. demo JVC DILA projector on O.S. Screen. Jaw dropping 1080p PQ. AV Design also has Sony Pearl.

Did you guy notice Marantz hi-fi equipment on display at WKH booth on the foyer? For that money, I would buy Krell, McIntosh, Naim or other brands.

How bout Jamo HT sys. Selling for RM799 only. Ideal for a budget system.
Jamo sw only Rm200 IIRC.

It's the Avantgarde speaker in Audio Note's show room. Not 100% sure, but I think it is the NANO speaker from their UNO series..

My fav: Opeara, Viviena, Malaysia LS3/5a club, Infocus, Sonus farber, another i dunno wht brand ( the loud speaker have a big cone one, sound is really sweet!!)

-Opera is my most fav!! Grand Mezza is really Superb!!
-Viena source is hi-end turn table, bass so smooth, mid and highs so sweet  wub.gif
-LS3/5a: most beautiful vocal (saw the long hair guy demo there, guesss he is the legendary 'KI master')
-Sonus farber: So nice beautiful big room, full with Sonus!! many set of bookshelf and floorstands they displayed!! Splendor !!!
-Infocus: They demo Andrea Bocelli concert!! Really nice!! (wish i can spend my whole day inside!!) Infocus offer 3 demo rooms (Andrea Bocelli concert/Spiderman3/PS3), can see they put more effort than others. *(i vote them for best video demo).
other fav:
-neat bookshelf (2.6k) pair with Thule amp (amp cost RM3k+)~ vocal is so nice!! wide sound stage and so detail. But bottleneck by its size, sound so bookshelf.
-B&W 602 S3 (from Audio Note. yes, old version and made in UK  drool.gif )~ mid and highs is too harsh (maybe not yet run in) and a bit over price!!

**Anyone kindly help me to identify the loud speaker have a big cone one, the sound is really nice. I went there twice to listen to its demo.

LS3/5A speakers..why beautiful vocals?.. they're driven with VALVES (or tubes if you insist) with 5-10% distortion specification vintage amplifiers. No dead accurate power transistors or mega power amplifiers that make your TNB meter spin the speed of a gasing!

Audionote and Avantgarde Uno Nano.

Too bad that those dCs Scarlattis are not connected to a pair of speakers. I really wanted to hear it.  sad.gif

Anyway, the Audio Research + Sonus Faber is good. thumbup.gif Audio Note and Harbeth also very nice.  thumbup.gif

Even visited Norman Audio with Krells. Cant afford any of those but dont care and went to ask the price of the KAV400xi.  laugh.gif
*
I have checked with Mr. Foong of Norman Audio, the price of KAV400xi is now RM9K instead of RM11K, need to tight my belt now to save money for this powerful amp to pair with my speakers.

I went to the show around 1pm yesterday til 4pm , manage to buy few CDs, such as The famous sound of three blind mice Vol. 1, Patricia Barber - Nightclub, Mary Black - No frontiers, some chinese audiophile LPCDs, etc.

Hi, I need some help on getting a HT system. I have zero knowledge about HT system till about a week ago. According to "What Hifi" and some other forum the Onkyo 606 paired with Q Acoustics 1010i 5.1 system is a good system to start with. I haven't had a chance to test out this system. Do you guys think its a good entry level system? I have about RM5000 +- 500 for the setup. I also have tested out the Jamo A102HCS5 speaker set, which sounded alright and its the cheapest set I've seen so far, its going for RM1800. I was at the AV fair on friday and manage to hear some really good setup, I think I kena the poison. Any advise would be deeply appreciated. Now I'm also thinking of getting a separate set just for audio only. Thanks

Thought of going today, but looking at the lacklustre feedback, seems nothing exciting and same kind of products on demo.

Skip this year then.

nice pictures u guys share,ple keep up posting more pics biggrin.gif

from posting,i would say Jamo should be a good buy for HT set up,by adding a Yamaha RV-1800and Velodyne 10-12" sub,WOW.....total arround <7k,if limited budget then Jamo+RV1700+10" sub....

what about infocus HD pj,still no news ? Any cheaper price on RV-1800 ? Or any news on Denon 2808 ?

The Pioneer Susano setup is really wasted. They are playing Celine BD with it. The vocal sounds 'too open'. Not impressive. Must be the wrong setup or calibration.

Btw, the Civic in front of Pioneer showroom is too boomy. They demo 'Hero' whereby the army shooting arrows. That is arrows lah and not cannon. FuBOOM fuBoom  doh.gif  sweat.gif
*
totally agree with htkaki, i sat in the car, then came out, sounds like shit, maybe you have to drive the car with the background noise and engine noise then the arrows will sound better..

other than that , the susano also sucks, but the amps looks really huge. so big that i think i cannot carry it..

sonus faber setup was also pretty poor. sounded too boomy, opera tibaldi. is ok..

best sound i think avalon acoustics and cmy usher audio. there is also one company that sells high end transport cd players, nothing to listen but just to look at only.

vienna acoustics was good, and sweedish statement. was ok also. no naim speakers this year, but everyone promote on blueray.

it is like every year ritual for me visiting the ls3/5a club, never leave the room when im in it. listen and listen.. just so soothing. others are like. loud, thump. boom.. my ears cant take too much of it, but LS3/5A, i just cant move, reluctant to move on...

but give other ppl a chance to listen also lah. the room not big enough for him. every year keep adding amps. mana ada tempat. next time only one person can come in.

probably i will be one ls3/5a kaki next time. but i realised those kaki are usually with grey hair. maybe i need to have more grey hair to play ls3/5a


Added on July 27, 2008, 1:21 pmthere is one company that i really wanna complain, really misleading advertising. desa home theater.
i ask about the pricing. it seems that u got to get the coupon, or if you are luckily draw with the coupon, then only you get the discount. if not u pay full price. dammed.

also i think this year the entrance give is getting more kiam siap, i think the company cut cost, only ada air minum. other than that i cant even get a pen, last year i got a pen. maybe next year air also tak ada. just pay 10 bucks and go in. what the heck.
long long time ago. got free cd, t shirt,. all sorts of things. nowadays nothing man.
