A STATE OF THE ART GREETING FOR HI-FI SHOW ATTENDEES
Some might say it's a radical design, while others appreciate it as an art form in itself. Regardless of which camp you fall into, the Bowers & Wilkins 800 Series Diamond 3 is unquestionably at the pinnacle of loudspeaker design and by their own admission, the best speaker the Brittish company has ever made.
In what will be the first public display, visitors to the 2018 Melbourne International Hi-Fi Show will be greeted by the loudspeakers in all there glory in the lobby of the venue, partnered with electronics from ultra high-end brand Thrax Audio (Bulgaria). And it doesn't stop there.
Orpheus Audio and Spiral Groove (USA) will provide organic tunes from the SG 1.2 Turntable, with all connections made by Kubala Sosna and Enklien cables. All this adds up to a system that promises to be captivating, true to the source, Hi-Fi system that tips the scales at nearly $200,000!
The system will be demonstrated by Mr Analog himself, Australia's own Mark Doehmann who will also conduct turntable seminars across the three days of the show.
Also featuring in the Mercure Lounge will be Melbourne's own Little Wise who will be returning directly from a New York tour and playing her latest acoustic tracks from the upcoming album.
The 2018 Melbourne International Hi-Fi Show runs from October 12-14, 2018 at the Pullman Mercure Hotel, Queens Road, Albert Park. Tickets are on sale now.
Who said diamond's were only a girl's best friend? You won't want to miss this one!

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
