These are the cables we use in both of our set ups, from Purist, good stuff.

We have been so busy today that we haven’t managed to go for a stroll yet, hopefully later on this afternoon. I guess we can show you some more stuff from our room instead:)

Django XL hiding behind the pretty diffusors from Svanå Miljöteknik.

This year we share room with Nagra which is really cool. This is their 300B awesome tube amp that we use with Miles 5.

Miles 5

Diffusors by Svanå Miljöteknik

Busy as usual.

The brand new Kuzma turntable that we play with Miles 5

The main setup.

This is Nagra’s latest pre amp Jazz. Big news on the High End 2012.

We’ll be back soon with more.

The main setup with Django XL, M•Amp Mono Power block and Nagra electronics on M•Furniture Audio Bench.

The premiere of the new Miles 5 that we will tell you more about soon.

Collage type panorama of the whole room. Click to enlarge.

We’ll be back soon with more news.

This is a bit like that huge storage space at the end of ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’:)

Unpacking Svanå diffusors.

Here you can see the new Audio bench in reflected in Django XL.

Leif being diffused by the diffusors:)

See you soon

What’s not to love about this city. The beer flows like a golden elixir, the Weißwurst is so good you easily can have it for every meal of the day and it always seem to be sunny:) We have spent the day unpacking and are soon done. We will be back in a moment with more stuff from High End 2012.

Cheers

We just came back from the XTZ room where we listened to singer/actress Anna-Lotta Larsson. I don’t know if she’s famous abroad but she’s very big in Sweden. She actually apologised for being amped by a Bose speaker but it sounded really good anyway. She has such a lovely voice and the guy on piano is very talented as well. Thank you for the music:)

We’re upstairs in Sheraton Stockholm this weekend at the very cool HiFi show Stockholm High End. 

Although the weather’s rather gloomy, we are having a really good time in this beautiful city.

A bit chilly for all the audiophiles queueing up outside before the show opened.

Although slightly warmer as the queue continued inside.

Our room has been ram packed ever since it opened.

Leif is spinning his tunes on our new Djangos. You ca also see the awesome MSB electronics on our brand new audio bench. It all sounds fantastic with Jorma Design cables as usual.

Here’s Leif presenting our new stuff.

This was yesterday eve at classic Stockholm eatery Prinsen. At the left is Frank from MSB who is helping us out this weekend. In the middle is Jörgen and to the right is Leif. For starters we had whitefish roe on toast with O.P Andersson Akvavit shots. Don’t miss that if you’re in Stockholm, delicious!

We’ll be back soon with more High End stuff.

The weather is always lovely under the painted ceiling at the Venetian:)

Here’s some more stuff from our floor.

Bright red electronics from Oracle Audio.

As well as shiny turn tables. Good stuff.

Oh, and here is of course the Djangos in Dan’s room together with the usual E.A.R. electronics.

Cozy lighting in Prima Luna‘s room.

Inside Prima Luna.

Good sounds in the Lansche Audio room. It almost seems they arranged their stuff according to the sunlight.

And a snake pit of cables behind:)

Rather shapely loudspeakers from Kondo.

Cool sounds and colours from Martin Logan.

Here are the delicious stone crab claws at Joe’s we were talking about yesterday. We spent the evening there with Henry Ahn from SAEM Energy in Korea and his lovely family. They fly these claws fresh from Florida everyday. Apparently they never kill any crabs, they just nip one of their claws off every year and let it grow out again. Must be really annoying to be one of them crabs eh?

Cheers

We found our mate Wes not far from ours, looking very professional with his new set up. Do like the logo work as well:)

He had this rather cool looking prototype of a new pre amp/dac from Viola Labs that you remotely control with an app on your iPhone.

New Hansen Audio loudspeakers in an unusual grey leather finish.

Humongous but still somehow very neat looking Redpoint turn tables in bright white. It all sounded really good.

Good stuff as usual from Venture in lovely Macassar Ebony wood finish.

Cool looking oblong shaped speakers from Vivid Audio.

The background at Jeff Rowland looked like a manifestation of sound.

The Bladelius room

with their brand new mono block amps. Good stuff as usual.

We’ll be back tomorrow, now it’s time for Stone Crabs at Joe’s

We keep playing the track ‘Geronimo’s Free’ by Ted Sirota’s Rebel Souls. It sounds awesome on our system.

Back at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas for CES 2012. Marten have been exhibiting for more than a decade at CES and every year is more fun than the previous. We have now opened the doors to the Marten room and the show is already busy.

Leif is setting up the brilliant electronics we use from MBS Technology.

Of course they’re placed on our own M•Furniture audio bench.

So are our M•Amp Mono blocks.

We also make use of the transparent diffusors from Svanå Miljöteknik, just like last year.

The calm before the storm. Leif arriving to the room just before kick off to do the final fine tuning.

If you are at CES, please pay us a visit. We’re in the Venetian suite 30228. Welcome to have a listen to our new Djangos.

We’ll be back with more tomorrow.
