HI-FI SHOW: Audiophile Heaven with Mark Levinson, Revel, Cary Audio, and JBL

Audiophiles are going to be in for a treat across two rooms at this year's StereoNET Hi-Fi & AV Show, thanks to Convoy, featuring iconic brands Mark Levinson, Revel, Cary Audio, and JBL

Room 1311 (Level 1) will feature the award-winning Revel F328Be 3-Way floorstanding speaker. With a retail price a touch shy of $30,000, the F328Be is the flagship in the PerformaBe series. It utilises a 1-inch Beryllium Dome Tweeter, a rare earth metal renowned for its remarkable physical properties that make it the ideal material for a high-frequency transducer. Compared to aluminium and titanium tweeter diaphragms, Beryllium offers 4.5 times the stiffness and three times more damping, and does so at only half of the weight. Beryllium tweeters are the centrepiece of the Revel PerformaBe loudspeaker series.

The latest electronics from the Mark Levinson 5000 series will power the Revel speakers, including the award-winning 5105 turntable. The second-ever turntable from the company, it's been marked as a "premium precision-engineered turntable with a completely original custom design", the № 5105 is said to blend "lustrous elements intrinsic to the acclaimed 5000 series industrial design". 

Moving into Room 1315 (Level 1), enthusiasts will be able to hear a true match made in heaven, where JBL's latest studio monitors, including the 4309 and 4349, will be driven by the smooth as silk Cary Audio DMS-700 network music player and the SLP-05 pre and CAD-120MkII power amp.

Convoy will also implement the proven range of IsoAcoustics isolation devices on its products, in conjunction with the JBL HDI series, powered by NAD Master series.

"We look forward to being able to show a new range of products to some old and new faces", said David Matthews, Managing Director of Convoy.

Convoy will exhibit in four rooms at this year's StereoNET Hi-Fi & AV Show - 1311, 1315, C5, and Victoria Room (JBL Synthesis Cinema) all on Level 1. The show takes place June 3rd-5th at the Pullman Mercure Hotel, Queens Road, Albert Park VIC. Tickets are on sale now.

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.
