Stereo Exchange's Dave Wasserman was delighted by the enthusiastic vibe at his Spring Fever event. Let's hope we can convince him to have more!

Here we see Totem's Vince Bruzzese with his new Wind Design in striking sky blue finish. Vince was thrilled with the turnout at Stereo Exchange's Spring Fever open house.

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!
