During the show, I will wear a T-Shirt with the name "shakti" on it, so please say "hello" , when you read it :)

I'll get myself a GMKF shirt then ;)

Or should we order a few t-shirts with the WBF logo on the back ?

I am going for the first time and Gobel will be showing in the following spaces
Atrium 4 level 1, room E115
The Divin Majestic loudspeaker in real piano lacquer black with real gold applications. Electronics and digital will be a full suit of CH Precision. Turntable/Tonearm and Phone Pre is the new top of the line from Kronos Audio. Fully cabled with our Lacorde Statement cables.

Atrium 4 level 2, room F226
The Epoque Aeon Reference in real piano lacquer white. Electronics, digital and phone pre will be a full suit of the top of the line Vitus Audio Masterpiece series. Turntable / Tonearm is the new top of the line from Hartwig Audio. Fully cabled with the top of the line Purist Audio Design cables.

Curious to hear the first bolded, but the second bolded is one of my fave high end loudspeakers. Capable of sounding truly excellent.

I have a feeling I might go this year (4th visit)... just not booked anything yet.

Does anyone have a map of the MOC? This is my first visit and I would greatly appreciate getting some bearings and/or perspective before arrival. Thanks.

They also hand booklets on the ground floor, or what you might call the first floor, that you can use on a floor by floor basis, or look up a component and head for that room.

I downloaded the app to my iPhone and it is excellent. Unfortunately, it will not run on my iPad, so I am stuck with the small screen.

Hopefully it will continue to work at the show. Mine didn't last year. Clueless why but it broke with no apparent fix, even re-installing didn't work. It was like the data server went down or something.

Semi bad news guy's :(

The S-Bahn (not the train going from the MOC to the Marienplatz) isn't operating completly this weekend. The main trunk line is beeing worked on.
There is a replacement service with buses. From the airport to the city centre take the S1 This train goes directly to the main train station. The S8 doesnt, so don't use it, because it is a pain to get into the centre from the Ostbahnhof or Pasing with the replacement bus.

If you are lost and need help shoot me a pm.

Marienplatz sadly no. But its going to the hauptbahnhof. From there you can catch the u-bahn (U4 or U5) to odeonsplatz. If I remember correctly your hotel is nearer to the odeonsplatz then to the marienplatz.

i think the nearest U-B station to my Hotel is the Merianplatz
but, the plot is thicken, i think we might share a Taxi and be done with it.

Hi Max,

Thanks a lot for highlighting this. Quite useful to know to not end up being stuck in a bus for half of the trip from/to the airport.
