If anyone gets the chance to hear them, I'd be most interested in your views of the Kii Audio Three BXT system. I feel like it's the way of the future (or something like it is) but could do with opinions on how it sounds. I'm envious of all of you over there.

First day over. This show is huge, I was able to see maybe 20% companies, and hear less than 10% of systems:/
Some really good systems, despite room acoustics and people that constantly talk behind you ...
Tomorrow into proper listening!

If somebody's around, we can grab a coffee or pint!

Yeah, well, eh it won't be the future until they do something about the 36k set they demonstrated that didn't have 36k sonics..... And there are cheaper methods to obtain remote control etc.

Well, that's that then! LOL!!

I heard the Three on its own a few years back when it was being lauded all over the place. I couldn't really interpret what I heard at that stage as it sounded amazing with some recordings and a bit odd with others. I had misgivings about the bass, and I can only assume that others did too since they've released the BXT thing to add on. I was interested to learn whether that improved things and unlocked a bit more potential, but it would seem not!!

Thanks Fran.
