Set up Day Snooping at High End Munich 2016 Produced Some Scoops!
Being a glutton for punishment, instead of taking it easy after traveling all night to Munich, I headed directly to the MOC convention center to watch everyone set up for Thursday’s press day opening.
Among the new analog gear I found: a new KLAUDIO cavitation based cleaning machine. It’s smaller and includes new functionaiity including a fine water level adjustment and an outboard water tank that improves filtering and makes easier tank cleaning.
There’s a new Frank Schröder tone arm built in America by Soundsmith and a lot more you’ll see on the video. There will apparently be some “big news” about reel-to-reel tape recorders to be announced on Thursday! (Warning: the sound gets loud at around 13:25).
When you see the state of the convention floor the day before the show begins, you’ll find it difficult to believe everyone will be ready to go on Thursday.
