Peachtree Audio's David Solomon was bursting with excitement over his new Nova integrated amplifier with USB DAC. It may have been the hottest product at Stereo Exchange's Spring Fever event. I believe David sold about fifteen units in the five minutes that I spent in his room. I am exaggerating, but only a little.

During Stereo Exchange's Spring Fever event, Transparent Audio's Josh Clark gave a valuable presentation on the various things to listen for when judging and enjoying a hi-fi system.

Spring Fever at Stereo Exchange drew an eclectic crowd. Here we watch, anxiously, as a Stereo Exchange representative calls out the names of raffle winners. Prizes included a Pro-Ject turntable, Meridian iPod dock, and a $2500 gift certificate!

And here we see <i>Stereophile</i>'s Mikey Fremer (short guy, crazy hair) chatting with Peachtree Audio's David Solomon and CSA Audio's Ralph Fonte.

At any real high end hi-fi event, there'll be great music, and Stereo Exchange's Spring Fever was no exception. Lori Lieberman dusted off her classic, "Killing Me Softly," and brought down the house.

Finally, any real high end hi-fi event will also have booze. On this occasion, Stereo Exchange's jovial staff members, Nelson and Tim, were happy to serve.
