Townshend live demonstrations
Over the entire three days Townshend Audio will be on hand in the “Headroom” area with a static stand to answer any questions on their comprehensive Seismic isolation equipment. These innovative designs have won plaudits from many within the hi-fi industry and are now being used in industries other than audio where there is a necessity to isolate unwanted vibration from equipment to improve performance, e.g., studio and stage microphones, tunnelling electron microscopes and small telescopes.
Computer Audio Design (CAD) in “Bedroom 9” will be demoing their Audio Transport (CAT) USB cable and new CAD GC1 Ground Control. All through a pair of Dynaudio C1 speakers seismically supported by Townshend Seismic Podiums and all connected with Townshend Isolda speaker cable and Townshend Fractal interconnect.
Dali in “D14 Lussac room” is going to use Seismic Podiums under a pair of Dali Epicon 8.
PMC is using a Seismic Platform under their demonstration CD player.
Seminars
On Sunday, visitors will be invited to attend drumming seminars hosted by visionary Jazz drummer Vince Dunn and five other professionals, who have collectively played with artists including Tom Jones, Joe Cocker and Pharrell Williams. The session, taking place from midday to 1:30pm, will finish with a 5-man Drummerthon.
The event will also welcome Rock and Prog Band, The Aim, who will perform a one-hour set, free to all ticket holders.
Guest speakers
Gary Langan, who is one of the world’s leading recording engineers, producers and musicians, will be sharing his insights into what it takes to make some of the biggest musical works ever released, including Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. There will be a Q&A session.
