Genesis at Salon Son et Image, Montreal

[John72953]

Both Carolyn and I will be there - showing the Genesis 5.3 loudspeakers which recently got a good review by Canadian magazine The Inner Ear. We are showing with SOTA turntables, and Parasound electronics supplied by our Montreal dealer Audiophonie.

Hi Gary! You probably are familiar with UHF Magazine out of Longueuil (off-shore suburb of Montreal) and Gerard Resjkind. It's one of my fave audio reads and I respect Gerard's opinion quite a bit. If you haven't been in touch with him, might I suggest you do...it could prove to be worthwhile. Here's a link...

Not a fan of the website layout, but I like their magazine.

Thanks, John. I haven't heard of them, but have just dropped Gerard an email to come by our room if they are there.

They'll be there for sure! And good luck!

As a special treat, we will be playing FIM test pressings of legendary recordings Esther and Autumn in Seattle. I've got the test pressings that were approved for production and will be playing them. This will be the world premier of these LPs as besides Winston, no one else has heard them.

Here's Winston with some of the test pressings of LPs that are going to be released on the FIM label.

The All Star Percussion Ensemble - Harold Farberman

Wow, that is a nice setup and room Gary! That wood sculpture on the front middle wall is magnificent! And that loudspeaker is gorgeous. And that behind turntable is 'acrylicly' sumptuous.

That is Winston Ma's legendary room.

First day - trade/industry day, so very slow going. But finally getting good sound in the middle of the afternoon.

Here's the system - loudspeakers by Genesis, electronics by Parasound, turntable by SOTA and cables by JIB-Germany.

Looking good! Has Gerard come by yet?

Not yet. WBF members Peter B was in the room early, and a couple of others (Marc, Rene, and one more I didn't get the name of) who mentioned posts I did on this forum also came by. So, WBF is well represented in Montreal

If you read this on WBF, mention it to me when you come visit, and you get a free T-shirt.
