Thanks for watching the video, I hope you enjoyed it. Please remember this is a complete one man production. I am presenting, doing video audio and all the editing after. I have tried to create the highest quality video I can, however this is still very much run and gun, not planned in anyway. Please forgive the odd error here and there I put my heart and soul into this production and did the very best I could.
Terry, seriously you keep getting better each time. I enjoyed this coverage better than any other from Munich 2024. Everything was spot on including the intro, editing and context. The perfect balance to keep the viewer engaged throughout the video, well done mate 😊
Brilliant, comprehensive video of your personal highlights of the Munich Show. Great to see so many UK companies really pushing the envelope in terms of design; functionality; innovation & accessibility for many audiophiles & hi-fi buffs the world around. So many top class hi-fi companies striving to do their best for us, the customers. Many thanks & best wishes, Terry, for putting together such a fine summary of the show. Cheers from Japan, (ex-Scotland).
I've trawled all the channels for info on the Munich show, since I couldn't make it this year.. Your footage & insightful interviews (with the right questions) are the best. Well done Terry!
Best video presentation yet Terry. Excellent show overview. Well done. You’re getting better and better. Maybe the best Munich high end video on UA-cam. Thank you
Terry, your coverage of such events is second to none, and I'm clearly not alone in really appreciating the work you put into these videos. There's a wealth of exciting products being launched and I hope and expect that you will have the opportunity to explore them and share your findings with us in the coming year!
@@borisbobowski628Last year Show of Aries Cerat in Munich was one of my highlights. This year unfortunately the highs were sometimes aggressive and just didn’t connect with the system.
Nice video especially asking the brands to summarily their sound signature. You were very diplomatic with Chord as time smear filters / management is hardly new technology- meridian for example did it 10 years ago , and ch precision more recently
Terry, excellent coverage. Hard to believe you didn’t have staff behind the camera. Your conversational style and relaxed presentation and delivery makes you one of my two go-to sources for information on hi-fi audio (the other one you literally have to look up to).
Many would perhaps scoff at such a supposition, but these ultra- high end systems are what i’d call endgame retirement treasures. To truly glean the truest essence of their fantastic virtues requires the limitless time, only retirees have spending with them. And a very tenacious, contentious Mark I have with prices anywhere from Four to Seven Million Euros, and those skimpy and paltry 3, and 5 yr warranties are completely crazy! That amount of cash outlay deserves nothing short of lifetime Field Loaner Substitution while your unit is being Fully, and Completely restored! I know for certain I’d have sky-high electric bills from a fully air conditioned set-up, I’D N E V E R SWITCH OFF! From CD, to Turntable, to Cassette Deck, to MD, and ESPECIALLY where it all began, BROADCAST FM, I would forever learn the length of their true lifespans at those MSRPs!
Lots of eye candy and a glimpse of John Darko heading into the show. Rob Watts lives in God's country. He's not only an electronics genius but has great taste when it comes to places to live. 😁
Thanks Terry for the great content again . Some amazing stuff here , that Hifi Rose gear was particularly interesting I haven't seen that kind of thing with the hidden screen before and some of their designs are really cool .
Great coverage well done. Managed to get to the show this year first time - omg ... Its interesting that Luxman system at the end of this video i felt was one of the best at show. Thanks Terry appreciate what you do ..
Good video like last time! Good use of b-roll to keep the interest up during interviews so I didn't get too bored. As a result it didn't feel like 51 minutes.
These shows are part sound reproduction and part visual art . i use to scoff at the aesthetics side of hifi but have been recently converted with my new marantz silver model 30 . for Me it is a beautiful work of art AND it sounds superb .
Great job, by far the best coverage of the Munich 2024 show. It will be awesome if yuo'll have the chance to compare the new Arcam with the NAD M33 just to highlight the difference in sound, performance, streaming platform and final amps stage of the two electronics.
As a lover of high end audio and collector of "traditional" equipment like amplifiers that LOOK like amplifiers, speakers that LOOK like speakers, turntables that LOOK like turntables...well you get it. Are we now in a new era of modern "ART" to achieve the new wow factor? I am seeing the madness behind the designers in collaborative effort to create the most outrageous visual and explosive shock factor to completely overwhelm us into believing if it looks like from another planet and dimension is MUST be the greatest audio gear in the solar system? If we want modern art, well...visit the modern art museum and bid on it. Suddenly the new wave of outrageous is everywhere it seems. Has someone forgot to that it doesn't take marble and granite and exotic bamboo and gold and carbon fiber and molding it into strange shapes by hiring art designers to baffle buyers into how it LOOKS rather than it's intended design and function to be the very finest in reproducing audio? Can we not stick to tradition and put all that engineering into what it is intended to be: Pure sound, how it looks is of very little importance (to me). If you are dropping megabucks into high end and it looks like a factory transformer in a cage that is all that should matter. Know it was designed for FUNCTION, not appearance. But alas people still want their bragging rights so it looks beautiful in their homes. Go figure.
I think in the main HiFi component design is often quite play it safe but then there are some very much out there and those brands create a very unique identity as a result. Aries Cerat is the best example of this as their HiFi looks nothing like any others but they sound very different too, its not just for show they are doing things very differently and the industry would be very boring if things were all alike.
I don't judge people for their own buying decisions or companies for their design decisions and I have more products to review than I can handle so that has no bearing on my view at all - lets not be cynical for cynical sake is I think is my mantra.
I've waited patiently for the right moment to watch this without interruption... Unfortunately it's taken doing my back in to present opportunity.... But what a watch.. We'll worth the wait... Nice content Tel... Fully appreciate what you've done here. 👍🏻
I was the only person really shooting like this with a cinema camera setup - its graded to be soft and pleasing, I could have gone ultra clear but that is not my style for 2024 :P
Hi I always like your videos you entertain lot of people and you are very accurate in your evaluations but the last few month I am following you more frequently you have upgraded your Channel by a huge margin it's amazing watching your videos keep it up because I am a huge fan of your fantastic informative and innovative videos thank you so much for your hard work 🙏👍
Thank you very much for your kind words and support, it means a lot to me that the hard work is paying off and has made a difference. Thanks again really appreciate it.
Love Peter Comeau and his designs but stealth black is not a good colour to make speakers disappear in a room, in all my years knowing metalheads I've only ever known one person to paint their rooms black(!) have the speaker grilles in beige or off-white and they'll disappear in a lot more rooms. An early thing I did after purchasing Mission 770's was changing the grille colour to blend in with my typical off-white room colours then get wooden stands to match the speakers.. 👍 If you wanted to really go stealth you could release said colours above in addition to designs showing a pot plant, books or a sleeping cat etc.. a design that literally blends in with the home, maybe you could send a photo of your listening room and A.I could generate some unique designs for you etc.. 👌 hi-fi is a beautiful thing 👍👍
Perreaux is just fantastic. I have a Pass Labs X150.8, very expensive. The Perreaux is as good as this. I had the Eloquence 250. I like the mosfet sound - and they just sound perfect. Great gobs of power.
Great video Terry! I’d love to attend someday, but man does that look like a shitty venue for high-end audio. The world should come out to Tokyo’s small international audio show instead, which takes place in a beautiful conference center with proper soundproofed rooms.
Munich is a lot of gear out of nearly everyones league, that is the point to some degree but there was a lot more diversity of cost this year compared to when I first attended which is an intersting shift. Its an expensive hobby whatever way you shake it down
Hi Terry, I really enjoyed the video. It would have been nice to show the Fyne Audio room, especially when you interviewed Tannoy. I've owned Tannoy's for the past 30 years and was totally disappointed to hear it was sold in 2016, shutdown its manufacturing in Scotland and move to China. I sold my Tannoy's and purchased a pair of Fyne F701's, I couldn't be more satisfied. Impressive sound quality and made in Scotland, imagine that. If you're interested, check out an outstanding company in West Yorkshire - Sugden Audio, I just recently purchased their A21SE Signature Integrated. I've had tube amps for decades and this amplifier has similar characteristics, plus a fantastic price point. Cheers, Craig/Elizabethton, Tennessee.
I would have been great to speak to everyone there but time is always against me because I have to do a lot of other work too while I am there and also a lot of talking in between, some selfies too :)
Terry, you do a great job with the videos. I found myself FF thru the first half, too much of the old guard. The second half was better. Maybe there should be a couple of vids, with a dedicated vid for new manufacturers. Some of the more intriguing looking products from your images were not introduced.
A question from a layman who is learning about High-End and/or Hi-Fi systems... Do the boxes that contain the speakers always have passive/physical crossovers inside them? In other words, when we talk about high-end or hi-fi sound, are the speakers always accompanied by passive/physical crossovers?
@@PursuitPerfectSystem Sure. But I bet the casework is more costly than the internal components. It's all a bit bling for me. I'd take the active SCM 50's you had a while back if I had this sort of money or maybe the itron Avantgardes.
Always solid content except the display picture look like some of my vintage bass bins thorough on some splayed horns and it’s reminiscences the wem stacks used at Pompeii with Floyd Echoes
Its conflicted (Instrumental) by Dasloe - I pay to licence music and its from the service I use but of the the music from there is available elsewhere on streaming services. Not sure about this one
@@PursuitPerfectSystem 😁😁😁 well, that I just bought an Artera Pre (which was on the Quad stand I think btw) to drive my Audiolab 8300 MBs and then Audiolab bring out... a 9000 Pre! Great timing. I will also wonder wether the 9000 power amps would be any better thant the 8300s.
It is not a High-End audio show, so your title is right. But.....a real High-End audio system should be a True High-End audio show. But the reason why it is a Hi-Fi show is all based on the fact that the people who give those demos are not able to relate to sound. This means they have no idea what each part of the system they use does individually. I have been there several times and the show proved how limited humans are regarding sound and music. This is why they imply incomplete audio products in their systems. This way they will never reach True High-End audio. Because those systems prove by sound and stage that they lack one or more aspects that sound possesses. You can only reach True High-End audio when every part of a particular audio system can reveal all aspects of sound. You can only create this when you can relate to audio. What makes you able to read any single audio product. This means you can describe which aspects of sound each part can reveal. And how the parts are being carried out one by one.
Great video as usual. Thank god your Tannoy interviews didn't involve the Muppet that Stereophile interviewed who didn't know his arse from his elbow. He should be fired.
10GHz of noise is well into microwave levels even looking at the harmonics on sound would not be heard until someone with perfect hearing of 20KHz (normal 12-15KHz) until many orders later. I think this is taking Hi-Fi to a point almost of insanity (No disrespect to the engineer). Is this an excuse to charge high prices for snake oil..?
Today’s HiFi has created benchmarks in performance, but overall I’m not impressed, too much of it is more aesthetic style, than real sonic substance😖🙈.
This why I am cautious about Chord. They talk about the electronics, but you can SEE how much money is spent on design and aesthetic. If or when I get to that level of spend I will be using my ears not my eyes.
The hifi business is far from going down and this show proves that, the ownership of music systems has changed that is all. A hifi system is now a luxury good and not a home main stay like it was decades ago. The industry is now and has always made luxury products as a results. Affordable access to music has never been easier and I think there are enough affordable systems out there to easily balance the more esoteric options. It’s the same in all industries

If possible a interview with Aries Cerat would be appreciated. Incredible system and sound this year. Thanks for the coverage.
Yep it would have been, agreed I didn't get a chance to though I was flat out all four days - I will explain all this in my next video.
Aries Cerat was one of the biggest disappointments

I for one would absolutely love to see Audio Solutions give you the opportunity to review their Figaro M/S series. Thanks for sharing this vid Terry.
All I can say is watch this space - I think the greedy audiophile in me would want the biggest ones but that is probably not the right choice... 😁
Thank you Terry, this puts us at the show too. Great work, keep it up.

speakers are works of art the problem no imaging. only loud good for deaf audiophiles.

And Jay at 28:30! Dude needs to smile like that more.....
Those Gyphon power amps are utterly ridiculous.
In more ways than one

I think you’re paying 90% for the casework.
Open the lid on one and look inside, or try and pick one up
@@PursuitPerfectSystem Sure. But I bet the casework is more costly than the internal components. It's all a bit bling for me. I'd take the active SCM 50's you had a while back if I had this sort of money or maybe the itron Avantgardes.
Also the music selection there was top notch, not the same songs again and again
Always solid content except the display picture look like some of my vintage bass bins thorough on some splayed horns and it’s reminiscences the wem stacks used at Pompeii with Floyd Echoes

Didnt realize Peter Cuomo is so tall. Probably still shorter than darko.
does London or somewhere in UK have a large hifi show ?
Ascot In September I think but its nothing like Munich
Did you perhaps get a listen to the new monstrous vivid audio moya M1? Your opinion at that price point?
Not really, they were playing but I was on the outer edge of the room so couldn't tell anything from there
Was Musical Fidelity there as well ? Look as if MF recently introduced a whole catalog of gear .
AXPONA is the best Audio Show in the world bar none, but Munich is definitely Top 5
Once again HDMI out of the 9000 Range. Missing it in the 9000P
