One of the things I wanted to highlight in particular was that the amp I chose had both Bluetooth and radio on board. None were audiophile recordings BUT all were instrumental in making me the musical being I am today. I chose to play music as diverse as The Carpenters, CRASS, Donna Summer, and Frankie Knuckles…with others thrown in for good measure. However, whilst I did introduce the system to the gathered audiences over my six presentations what I wanted to convey was that the common denominator in ALL the systems at the MOC was that they played MUSIC and that music is vital to the enrichment of our lives through creating memories. ATLAS cables will be known to many and deliver great performance at many price-points. The floorstanding speakers from FYNE are around €2k and are not too huge to not be acceptable in normal sized homes. I love Technics turntables and at this price they deliver a consistent product that spins at the exact right speed (they are all direct drive) and sound very acceptable, particularly when partnered with quality transducers like the HANA cartridge. Please indulge me and let me explain why I chose this system. I spoke with Manuel of the High End Society later and it turns out that Rick is a HiFi fan and that he comes to the show as a normal punter and without a special invite…how cool is that?!?!Ĭables: Atlas Equator speaker cables, Atlas Element Achromatic RCA, and Atlas EOS DD mains cables. Anyway, by the time I managed to process the situation Rick Rubin, the co-founder of Def Jam Records and all-round legend had exited the room and I was too late to say hello. You know that moment when you recognise someone but it takes you a while for your ageing brain to kick into gear and retrieve the required information from deep down in the memory banks.
So there we were chatting about this and that in the PMC room when s bearded guy walked from the listening space and directly past me. I have to tell you about another of the highlights for me at High End Munich 2023 happened whilst chatting to Peter from PMC (an honour in itself!). We would personally like to thank Manuel, Stefan, and Ali with whom we dealt the most, and for their confidence in Stu and HiFi PiG to deliver what they asked. This made for a packed event, but organisation was such that it never felt confused or unmanageable. Saturday and Sunday are open to the public and a chat with the most excellent team that organise High End Munich had them mentioning that over 20,000 tickets had been sold. It gives the industry an international hub where everyone involved can come, from wherever in the world they come from and get to meet the people they need to in order to fulfill their business goals. Thursday and Friday were press and industry only days and I really like this idea. High End Munich is the greatest HiFi show on earth, of that there can be no doubt, and this year was no exception.
