Montreal Audio Fest 2017

Montreal Audio Fest Starts Friday

Stereophile Staff  |  Mar 23, 2017

The 2017 Montreal Audio Fest starts tomorrow at its traditional venue, the Hotel Bonaventure Montréal (900 de la Gauchetière Ouest). In its current incarnation, this is the second year for the show after being "rescued" in 2016 by Michel Plante and Sarah Tremblay. Both had been long associated with the Canadian show before it was sold to the Chester Group in 2013.

Admission is free and Stereophile's Art Dudley and Robert Schryer will be wandering the Bonaventure's corridors, seeking out superb sound and reporting back on this site.

"Bonne Show!"

For a forth year in a row the wife has made vacation plans on the same date. So no drive to La Belle Province. It was such a great show I can only imagine it will be just as good with with Plante/Tremblay back in the saddle. For those going enjoy, miss my hometown.
