Hello Romy!

Cessaro had severe resonance problems in their room, so I didn´t stay long here.
What I noticed in the short time (maybe too short for a qualified judgement) was no stabiltiy broblems but less musical than the 300B last year. 
Hard to describe, not a kind of annoying coloration, but somehow I had problems in following the flow of the music in the same way as last year (subtractive intermodulation products?). But listening to Burmester this year there was a point where my opinion about the playback chain tilted from natural to cold, so mybe I was in the mood for warmer-sounding amps this year. An other strong contender for the best commercial horn loudspeaker could be Lansche top model. I had the chance to listen to the speaker with dome midrange and they really managed to integrate the plasma tweeter with the dynamic driver. There was an other horn with loaded dome similar to Avantgarde (forgot the name). Interesting that it has the same annoying horn colorations. Why does dome and tractrix horn not work? Opinions from experts desired.
