Thanks for pointing this out, but it also highlights a problem that audio journalists have in covering many rooms at shows: Either the lack of a complete equipment list for a room (a big no-no if you want accurate and complete coverage), or last-minute changes to the equipment featured so that an item gets left out.

I have written more than once about the need for accurate lists, since under the press of time at shows, journalists often do not have the time to write every component down by hand. Nor am I the only audio journalist who has said so.

I noticed because I own one of these very underappreciated/under reviewed USA made amps (one great review thanks to Home Theater)

It's become a strong event, with significant turnout…about 5000 in 2016. It certainly looked like it, as I reported in my two-part essay, HERE and over THERE. […]
