Jonathan Valin Reports on Munich’s 2008 High End Show
May 13th, 2008 — By Jonathan Valin

The M.O.C. building (essentially the München version of a convention center) is gorgeous—and large. Sixty-thousand, two-hundred-and-seventy-eight square feet, to be precise—with all of its several floors and many byways filled with high-end audio gear from over 24 different countries, including scores of manufacturers from the good ol’ U.S. of A.

Although I stopped in Munich (on my way to Berlin) late in the afternoon on the last day of the show, and thus only got to do a little window-shopping, I still managed, within ten minutes of arrival, to run into Garth Leerer of Musical Surroundings, Jim White of Aesthetix, Terry Dorn of Audio Research, Joe Kubala of Kubala/Sosna, Luke Manley of VTL, and many other old friends and acquaintances.
