Nice work on the vendors so far! Nice to see some new names and there are plenty I can think of that will be sure to join the party before too long. This national/international will be epic, and is certain to outdo the last two.

anyone try contacting Smyth Research about their SVS box? - head tracking virtualization processor - shown with Yamaha at a previous CES

their own $3K box is supposed to be coming real soon now

most current info I could find:
SVS (Smyth Virtual Surround) demo at CES 2007 - AVS Forum

Can Jam should be perfect for a Smyth demo

However, if we apply the survey percentage of 8 percent to the U.S. population as a whole, then it does indicate that 21.6 million people were apparently open enough to New Age, Pagan, and other alternative practices to participate in them."

there are a few non-tracking entries in the virtualiztion category too:

Dolby Technology - Dolby Headphone with 5.1 Surround Sound Stereo

DTS - We Bring Entertainment Alive!

I don't know if a Head-Fi National meet is big enough for these big boys - but maybe they would like to get their stuff in front of "fanatics" for the buzz

Let's get more people to ask Klipsch to come. They are considering it.
