Diesis Roma is a great sounding speaker.
I am thinking for 2024 a new speaker project with horn loaded line source for mid and high frequencies.

Congrats Keith! The chair looks great and the room is really coming along. Two questions:
1) Who makes your rack?
2) Any plans for the area between the speakers e.g. art, diffusion/absorption etc.
It’s a Box Furniture rack
Vicoustic 2D diffusers will go between the speakers and complete the look, hopefully with some soundstage and depth benefit as well.
Short update that there is no update 
It's ~3 months and counting on getting wood diffusers. One landed a week ago, without the other 3. I think the positioning can be dialed in more now too.
I will be going to the Dallas audio show on Saturday in March and will give a report on speakers as usual! I also have a room at Axpona.

I would appreciate reading your reactions to the YG Hailey Reference 3 speakers if you can fit that in to your visitsShort update that there is no update

Keith, when you‘re in Dallas you can hear Diesis @ the Rhapsody Dallas location. Or come anytime to visit in Portland I’ll gladly setup Diesis Roma for you to hear and enjoy.
Well, my favorite rooms at Axpona:
The $200k Credos, although perhaps a tough sell in the US, sounded big open and dynamic. The bass drivers were integrated with the line arrays unlike 90% of the usual ones including the former Pipedreams. Tone surprised me on the emmlabs electronics which historically have been cool for me.

Yes, that's our fearless forum leader in front of me. The big WVLs sounded fantastic on jazz and electronica. Colin has a great ear for non-audiophile music as well. Next door Cessaros were doing their thing in Catalano's room but unfortunately I forgot to take a picture. Melanie de Blasio was the highlight next door.

The Fern & Roby setup was the best "small" system I heard - and the entire system costs 20% of the usual suspects. The new SS integrated that Christopher showed looked promising. If I had a mountain house, I'd just buy this entire setup and spin records up there.

George Counnas and I had a great conversation listening to good classical on the Tidals. Excellent timbre, don't think they needed the big Eros 500s but couldn't hurt

Our forum setup wizard Todd did a remarkable job on the new Mezzos. I did not get the sweet spot on the iTron but on Sunday hard them on the Phasemations and it sounded sublime. Locked in, dynamic with great tone were my notes and no driver discontinuities. I continue to think AGs require true setup expertise and most who hear them never experience the real thing.

Remember Sadurni Horns with the huge ugly red horns that were like 3' deep? Me too. Well these weren't horns and looked like Anthony Gallo clones and sounded vivid, dynamic for a full range driver at 98dbs. The lovely Viva Solista completed the package (high audio drool factor).

Best of show in a lot of columns, rightfully so. The O96 never had bass I could warm up to, but the new O Bronze was far tighter and natural. The holographic image was spooky in the room not doubt due to the Komuro amplification. Lou Reed sounded "in the room."

For the super systems, Elliott really had this room improved over last year with the room treatments and detailed setup. Had it all on the Riviera Labs, great bass. I still don't know what to think of amps that are tuned by ear basically, but for a half hour it worked for me!
