MOC, Munich High End 5 - 8 May 2016
Horch House had a terrific active display of their latest titles, including:
Holst - The Planets
John Williams' Star Wars OST Episodes 4 - 6
Orff: Carmina Buranaus
Reiner Sound - Ravel/Rachmaninoff
Yello "One Second"
The Stellvox R2R looked & sounded stunning on headphones. This was an incredibly busy booth. Volker mentioned that they sold almost 5,000 albums last year on tape.
Met Rick Brown (HiFi 1 in Carlsbad, CA) emptying his wallet of Euros as he bought the Reiner Sound & Yello "One Second" Horch House do not take credit cards at the MOC. Rick was like a child in a candy store, gushing with enthusiasm for these new releases.
Spent quite a bit of time chatting with Volker Lang, who kindly took my cash & is shipping a bunch of albums to me including Yello "One Second". Volker is also sending us compilation tapes that we can use at the Newport Show next month. Volker mentioned some serious pop titles, that will be announced in the coming months as the contracts are signed.
Volker also mentioned that they are gearing up to duplicate cassettes in real time on 20 reVox cassete decks along with the 15 1/4" tape recorders that they currently use.
