Man you must have been really jet lagged! My first impressions are that they are too expensive and I don’t like that one bit. Can’t afford them so I hate them.
Doing it a bit tough at work! Yum those food shots look absolutely delish!
Billy thanks for your reply, when you descend from mount Olympus some of us mere mortals would love to read your thoughts regarding the WAMM and how it compares to the Contendo, if I were able to listen to any of those speakers I´d probably develop a full blown Stendhal Syndrome on the spot!
Reminds me of this view...

All lot to report and lots of photos to go with it. Food pictures are to tide you over until we get back to the states
Can't wait Joshua. I wish I was there, damb. This summer for my little trip over, hopefully with Brad. Plus Munich Hi-End of course.
Interesting on Billy's comment re overdamped room. I wonder if getting a test environment damped to the right level is key to testing a speaker. How it interacts with the environment. I think the acoustic panels are all movable. So Stavros can go more 'live' if he wants. I bet you could spend months changing the room interactions alone.
Big bass horns, I can only imagine that. I wonder how it plays bass? I trust be different to cones, more sped, faster transients. So say a Stanley Clarke track with some nice fretted bass line, that would be amazing on a big bass horn I bet. And Organ music, or Reggae....
With my Kassandra and Genus system with Zingali horns, I too have fitted a cork wall with 10mm and 3mm panels alliterating down the whole wall facing my speakers. I seems to be a good move in my case. I have a tiled floor over thick concrete, with a central Indian rug centred in the soundstage.
