Just wanted to say thanks to the WHF team. Spent a day with them today for the big question section and it was very enjoyable. Passionate people who clearly love their jobs and what a great job.

It was fascinating to see the demo rooms and the amount of kit on display and generally talk about hifi/AV without going all geeky.

Thanks again

Re: THANKS TO WHF TEAM -BIG QUESTION PARTICIPANT

Yes, it certainly was worth the trek from Barnsley. I just reached home after a long day. It was quite a fascinating experience. The photo session was the most difficult bit!! I've never posed in my life before!! 

The demo rooms, as staggerlee mentioned were quite impressive.......never seen so much AV & hi-fi kit together before (apart from shops). 

We just had a great time hanging out in the pub for lunch, checking out the demo rooms & ofcourse, participating in the Big Question.

A big thanks to the WHF team for such a memorable day!! Yes

No I didn't. To be honest, that was the last thing on my mind. I'm not really excited about the 3D TV thing at the moment.

Now, come on, Shahed: just a little bit geeky, surely? Wink

Jonathan - really thanks to you and your team for a great day. I just booked an appointment with my dealer to demo some stuff, bacause I didn't think i had enough boxes after a visit to your demo rooms. Doh!
