Moderators can move this to the right forum but I'll post it here for now because there's a lot of high-end equipment pictured here. :)
The show was in one of the central hotels in Sofia. Everyone was able to listen carefully to many high-end systems. I'll show some pictures and will mark ONLY models of speakers and some other stuff that I was able to remember. Audiophiles will identify the others. :)

The Hansen King's are shown with Halcro amps. I don't think Hansen makes any amps.



Thanks for the pictures.

Thanks for the pictures.

My mistake, sorry. :)

Is it just me, or is anyone else seeing headache inducing amounts of lens barrel distortion? It's almost like these were shot through a fish-eye.

It was the only way to show the whole setups in these rooms.

Did you have a chance to listen to these Cabasse speakers?
 

There was a whole 5.1 home cinema system build with them. I couldn't evaluate them as stereo speakers but sound quality of the movie (Casino Royale '2006) was terrible. :)
