ReplyDeleteSo no CD player , No Record Player and using some of the worst modern electronics available - This is one room I will be laughing at before I've even heard it - Its going to be bright ,fatiguing no bass - with a dead playlist on shuffle - You guys really have some soul - Not and you consider yourselves as reviewers/ bloggers - terrible .
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment.
DeleteIt is your choice, of course, but to form a judgement before visiting the room is totally missing the point of the show.
Here we keep an open mind and have a listen to everything that people have to offer. It makes for a far more interesting World.
Keep reading and you'll find unedited feedback on previous years' systems to understand that there are other opinions out there, all of them based on an approach that's open enough to form a view after the experience and not before.
DeleteDid you miss this about the playlist? "we'd rather you chose a track of your preference"
DeleteNice to see someone so open minded... And not even brave enough to disclose their identity...
DeleteYes , and I bet you don't publish that either
