Unfortunately not. Did not get a chance to speak to Dieterich and ask him why? Seems a shame to bring the humongous turntable all the way to Hong Kong for static disply.
Yea we did. The listened to the jbl's after the honky Zu speakers and the slightly dry sounding Goldmun room. The JBL's sounded good with that effortless delivery that the better jbl's always do well.
If there was, I could not pick it. Most of the music was the typical female lite jazz type. A couple of the rooms had some nice classical tracks playing.
There was a lot of Chinese music on vinyl available, which surprised me. One brand of the Chinese music was proudly stating pressed at Pallas in Germany. Looks like the Chinese are playing vinyl.
I heard no special Asian demo disks. Most of the Asian music was being sold by vendors. There were so many that one didn't know where to start. Also CD's were being sold everywhere with no suggestion they were a thing of the past
I saw a dealer that had 2 copies (NM and NM-) of Flamenco fever, one for $1400 and the other for $560. I was tempted but moved on
I've seen that TT in Person in Munich. It is HUGE. I bet many ppl in Asia would need a small chair or pedestal in front of it just to be able to change the record

Dietrich makes a shorter one for the Asian market this one at HK is a different table to Munich and is a little shorter - Dietrich told me but can't recall now.
Hey James. Yep, last time I think. Its always great fun in HK and you get to see almost everything bar some of the Euro brands. the drinking and food is great as well.
Munich - not sure. That is a bloody long way from Sydney as you well know.
btw James - flights are cheap - you are still able to fly over
We are staying in Wanchai on Lockhart road - so easy straight line walk/stagger. I love crab, but being a Aussie I can't open and eat the crab as effectively and efficiently as the locals - can be frustrating
