Ditto on the ditto. Thanks very much Mike. Very kind of you to take the time to post all the images and add commentary.

Mike, anyone, did you get to the Zu/Peachtree room?
You know my love for Zu and uber respect for designer Sean Casey.
The new Druid VIs at $10k have been getting a lot of love.

Acoustic Sounds---room--Bluebell

this is Chad's room. and he has the media over all other. honestly I cannot recall about the gear other than the Stellavox RTR which evidently is no longer Charlie King's, it's now Chad's.

if there is a sexier piece of audio gear not sure what it might be. audio porn delux!!!!

he was playing tape, the Muddy Waters Folk Singer. pretty awesome sounding.

The shots are amazing. This has got to be my favorite of them all. You're making me want to take the Leica plunge Mike.

Mike, those Troy Hellenas look fascinating, somewhat like the Maxonic spkrs out of Japan w concentric horn tweeter/mid and Supertweeter.
Can you describe the sound a little more?
The price?

M-P 240, Mike?

M-P 240, Mike?

M 240, not M-P.

Can you reveal the Troys price tag? I like what they have to offer re SET friendly high efficiency etc.

don't recall exactly; but it was right around $100k USD.

 

[spiritofmusic]

Hmm, that's a tad higher than I was expecting.

 

[spiritofmusic]

Got $150k quote direct from Troy re the Hellenas.

Very cool speakers, I did like them a lot, but the Altec/GPA 604 isn't that kind of a driver (for a 6-figure speaker)...imo.
