Salk at AudioFest

Any accolades are better than none I guess.

What a treat to see Jim and Dennis at the show and listen to both of their speakers.
I could sit in that room and listen all day without tiring.

Thanks
James

Atkinson said nothing about how it sounded or even mentioned Salk speakers. What's so great about what he wrote?

George

He said, and I quote:

"Instead, I was told the speaker costs just $2800/pair! That is a lot of speaker for the money."

I don't think he was referring to the size of said speaker.

George, Atkinson also compared the Bryston to the Salk.

Quote

"Whereas the Bryston offers control buttons and a display, the Salk is controlled by a remote client running on an iPad, iPod Touch, Android phone, etc."

That sounds like a plug for the SalkStream.

The line by itself, out of context, could be interpreted that way, but knowing that the Bryston BDP-1 can also be controlled by a variety of portable WiFi devices, control via buttons and display would have to be considered an additional feature.

Nor was he referring to a Salk speaker - which was my point.

One of the best sounds at the show.
