NY Audio Show 2013 - My impressions

Gary-If you have the 12" 45 RPM version of "Relax," the bass must have been incredible. That cut will separate the men from the boys with regards to amp power and speakers being able to reproduce the bass cleanly if the amps are up to it.

Yes. I use the UK-pressed Sex mix 12" 45 RPM version of "Relax". The New York mix and other mixes are softer and the bass is not as clean. The UK-pressed Annihilation mix of Two Tribes is even better - if that is at all possible.

It was this track that made me decided on the cactus-spine cantilever moving iron Hyperion against my ruby cantilever moving coil Magic Diamond. The lower moving mass meant a more dynamic presentation that hit you in the chest even 20ft away from the speakers.
 
... Yello, Swedish House Mafia, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, all of which we played all are very well produced and I personally think more engaging music than the majority of audiophile offerings.

Couldn't agree more!
