Nintronics Open Day Event - KEF, Chord Company, REL

Nintronics is hosting a brilliant-looking KEF open day that looks too good to miss.
Based in Welwyn Garden City, the friendly Hi-Fi store will be demonstrating a range of KEF loudspeakers including the Blade 2, Reference 5, and Reference 1 along with a presentation about KEF's approach to speaker design by Dr Jack Oclee Brown.
If that wasn't enough, The Chord Company is also on hand with Patrick Mitchell chatting about the importance of shielding. Furthermore, The Chord Company will be bringing along its newly announced network switch under the revived English Electric brand.
Rounding things up on this British hi-fi extravaganza are demonstrations by REL.
Naturally, there will be refreshments served throughout the event as well as some special offers available to attendees.

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.
