Having clicked on the link and read the copy I'm not really sure that I want to " divulge in high end headphones" but I will offer my services as a proof reader in future. I'm guessing it should read "indulge" although that's still not awfully good English. I'll probably start banging on about how it's advertising a future event but is written in at an attempt at the present tense soon. It certainly looks very interesting, but the website copy marks it out as an amateur rather than a professional offering. If you want something to look professional get a professional, or at least get some professional advice. It's a shame to see what may well be a great event let down by shoddy presentation.

Quite right too Paul - it looks thrown together very quickly ...
I'm not sure it was written by someone whose first language is English.
eg "The hotel is ready with a great atmosphere"
What is "This new sound lifestyle show"? Quite apart from being incomprehensible, I wish hi-fi shows would stop promoting themselves on the basis of 'lifestyle'.
Hopefully the show won't be quite as amateur - tickets aren't cheap.

First use coming up. Someone really isn't trying hard enough, because they wrote "drool over Lamborghini's, Ferrari's and Porsche's". That's three, yes three apostrophes too many. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!

I felt comfortable stopping my dissection where I did. It was obvious that there were plenty of "clangers" for everyone.

Merylebone ! That's the happy version
This guy is seriously dyslexic, rather lazy or in need of a minder/proof reader. (Surely dyslexics cut and paste whenever they can)

Location is a bit too far for me, but thank for making us all aware of this Barry. I have to say that I was a tad confused by the two addresses at the bottom, but otherwise won't comment on the language as it would be a bit rich for me given the amount of times I have been picked up on my pronunciation

How did the Longdog room sound, Barry?

How did the Longdog room sound, Barry? Excellent Martin only one of two rooms playing vinyl , the Rogers speakers sounding very good. Streaming seems to be very popular now, of course its very convenient for a show. I must mention The Little Audio Company started earlier this year , he only brought along 3 bits of kit but very impressive stuff , not for us multibox types but if you were just starting off or even another room , KEF LS50 wireless speakers , amazing things , dedicated streamer, a Bluetooth module, 24-bit/192kHz DAC, preamp and four power amplifiers with a total of 460W of output. I noticed the rear port and asked was room placement a problem , David (owner) opened up the app and revealed the controls for the inbuilt DSP , Tidal and Spotify are supported and you can even connect up your T/T although the sound gets digitised . The other two bits of kit were some passive KEF's to use with a Convert Plato Class A - Home Entertainment system , which was a little black box of tricks with a screen that comes with a Kindle Fire for using the app ,another amazing product for anti-box collectors.

Knowing how good the KEF LS50s are, I think the wireless version would be perfect for people wanting good sound quality but in a minimalist way.
