DeVon and I would like to give our sincerest thanks to everyone who took the time and expense to come to this years fest!  Every year it feels like we just grow our family!  This years fest couldn't have been more perfect, from the weather to the people and even the sound was exquisite!

Kelly,

  They are the 604-8H-III's which have a different horn than the rest of the 604's They are somewhere between the vintage sound of the 604's and the best of the best horns out there. Really a sweet speaker.

Even though the tout excellent imaging, which comparing them to any previous version I had heard, the III's out image them all. They will not out image your RL-3's....thats just a fact!!!

The WO-32 was only used as a platform to set gear on, probably would have been counter intuitive to use it with gear setting on top.

Look for them on the Decware site in the next month or two

I brought them......

WOhhh!!!

So those are the huge beasts Bob was working on, finally shown. They look incredible.

By comparison the size of my ERR cabinet is tiny  :




Steve, no video/audio recording from the fest?  

Howdy all,

Many thanks to Steve, DeVon and Sarah for a great 'Fest .....

It was really good to see a lot of old friends again and make some new ones.

Because of the side effects of the radiation treatments I underwent two years ago, my dietary options are somewhat limited ..... but the "lovely chefs of DecFest" made sure that I was well nourished during the event.  My sincerest thanks for their over the top efforts.  There are no words that can properly express my gratitude and affection.

The turnout was very good ..... even on Friday.
The music and sound was good with some interesting new equipment, and Steve's corner horns were making the best sound by far that I have heard from them.  
Someone had a copy of Nils Lofgren "Acoustic Live" that we played through the corner horns and track # 5 left a lasting impression on my mind.  Well done .....

Looking forward to DecFest 2011 .....

Steve: Thanks for posting the pics!
It's a bit of a journey from B.C. to Peoria, hopefully, some year!
The event looks 1st. class, in keeping with the hardware---!
Best, Don

Hi Juan,

No, I didn't record or broadcast it this year, however, I am planning to next year and will be advertising the fest much earlier to promote it.

Steve

Yes, it was shown all three days at various points.  It sounded good accept for one issue with a slight smearing of the bass.  This caught me off guard because the bass had been the most impressive part - super fast.  Faster than any other speaker I have.  We had a lot of other speakers in the room at the time and it seems that they sympathetically resonate but because they are slower, it smeared the bass.  This was not noticeable on all the other speakers because they were all slower to begin with so the resonance of the speakers setting around the room did not cause the same issue.  I found this out after everyone left.

Steve
