What a hi-fi show REALLY sounds like (Munich High-End 2023)
📺 https://darko.audio/2023/05/what-a-hi-fi-show-really-sounds-like-munich-high-end-2023/
📣 NOTE! This video features B-roll footage of 'conference' centre-based hi-fi shows - Munich 2025, Munich 2024, Munich 2023 and Warsaw AV 2019 (as shot by Jana Dagdagan). Why? Because that's all I have in the video archive. However, the points in the video are just as relevant to the smaller, hotel-based shows happening around the world throughout the year.
