Paul DiComo, Polk Audio's marketing manager,
holds two speakers from his company's new RM6700 system ($899), which includes four
satellites and a center-channel speaker. Behind him is the new RTi150 floorstander ($899
each).

Michael Kelly of Aerial Acoustics poses with
his newest speaker, the $8000-per-pair Model 9, which will be available in January 2003.


JVC's D-ILA Theater was housed in a huge
auditorium and showed three images produced by different D-ILA projectors. Prices ran from
"If you have to ask, you can't afford it" to under $10,000. The images were
stunning and the best we've seen anywhere at CEDIA.

For its home-town show, Bel Canto Design set
up a serious home-theater/surround-sound system in one room, with a bank of eVo
amps and seven EgglestonWorks speakers...,

...and this more modest two-channel system in
another. The EgglestonWorks Rosa speakers were driven by a Bel Canto eVo4 amp, Pre 6
preamp, and DAC2 digital-to-analog processor. A Pioneer DVD player acted as source. The
delicate sound was a respite from the controlled chaos on the show floor. |
