I’ve been getting regular updates on AXPONA and today I received one that inspired me to look at the exhibitors list. To my surprise I saw that PS Audio was listed as an exhibitor and will be on the first floor in the “Journey/Creation” room! Now the real question, will this be a full on display or a just a presence? AXPONA has moved to a new hotel further away from O’Hare (amen!) so the rooms are a big unknown. Regardless, if PS Audio is there in a significant way I will be too. So what say you Paul? ---

We are going. They offered us a fancy room at the last moment due to a cancellation and we took the plunge. We’ll be there with bells on our toes. Thinking about a full Stellar system demo this time. Have everything on display, the staff, etc. ---

Hey, great news Paul. It was nice to see you (on your own) there briefly last year. Will be even better to see PSA in full presence this year. ![happy-048_gif](http://www.psaudio.com/wp-content/forum-smileys/happy-048.gif "happy-048\_gif") ---

Did not actually have a chance to sit down. Sounded fine from the back of the room. ---

I heard them a couple of times today, the first was not in a very good position so we’ll forget that. The second time was the end of the day and I was the only one listening. Sounded very nice, though can’t say I’m real familiar with the sound of the Golden Ears. I will say they sounded warm, I think Paul may favor a warm sound since when I heard the IRS at PS Audio it had a warm sound too (though a very refined one!). I also heard the Golden Ear’s in the Saturday Audio Exchange room and I thought the balance there was a little more to my liking. They were a slightly smaller room too so that could have been why. ---

Show is an easy 20 highway minutes from my house…should go…na, I’ll listen to my stereo and drink Rye whiskey. I do want the new P15 though! Will be looking at trading in my P10 closely when the prices are released! ---

My Triton 3+’s and Stellar I would describe as extremely neutral and responsive to system changes. Warm may be a result of the interconnects or as simple as the positioning plus the sub setting. ---

I had the 7s at one time and they were outstanding for the money. I also called for tech help a couple times and both times Sandy answered. That was cool… ---

Is it me or is that an asymmetrical toe in I see on the Tref’s above? ---
