Audio Show Deluxe 2024

The recent Audio Show Deluxe was another enjoyable weekend, thank you to everyone who visited and took the time to listen to our system and the cable demo.

 

Combining a relaxed and unhurried vibe, the show built on the success of the 2023 inaugural event. Plenty of quality audio systems to experience and as part of that we had 2 great demo areas. A nice big system in Hockenheim room, and a smaller system in room Syndicate 10.

 

The big system was so enjoyable and easy to listen to, just as it was last year. The Hegel P30A and 2 H30A pre/ powers combination was the heart of the system, feeding into the extremely capable EgglestonWorks Viginti loudspeakers. It was fed by both the Hegel Viking CD player directly into the preamp, and an Innuos Statement NG fed through the Merason DAC1mkII. The system was completely cabled with Audiomica and power products and isolation provided by MusicWorks. It had authority, was dynamic and detailed, all without straying into harshness, very coherent and rhythmic, an excellent combination garnering many positive comments.

We also gave a sneak peek of a new brand we are introducing to the UK this year, Luphonic turntables.

The smaller system was Hegel H600 and Viking driving EgglestonWorks OSO. Again Audiomica cables with power and isolation provided by MusicWorks. This room was used by Marcin from Audiomica to introduce the brand and carry out comparative dems. We had many positive comments about this room too, it was great to be able to show how good Audiomica cables are.

 

Overall, a great weekend playing music on a superb system, and showcasing our favourite cable brand.

 

Audio Show Deluxe is shaping up nicely to be an important part of the audio show calendar.
