Should this not be on the 'There's this shop nowhere near me...' part of the forum? I will ask the wife about attending, but the answer will probably be no.

Think I can safely say the familiar all-red WHFSV stand and demo room won't be there. Unfortunately.

Basically because we have enough trouble getting our editor to go south of the river, let alone that far away.Stick out tongue

 I always hope that WHF can come and visit the show as well. I do see HiFi Choice reps around the show but not sure whether they actually write up a report on the event.

 I agree with you. This event is less attractive without WhatHiFi team

Re: Kuala Lumpur International AV Show 2009

Totally agree. However, some companies did not take part this year and one of them is ARCAM. Was looking forward to see them again this year. I particularly liked the Naim and Mcintosh show rooms.


One thing I noticed, the wireless streaming is picking up a storm here. HDMI streaming seems to be the in thing now and not to mention NAS equipments.


Got myself a Rega Apollo CDP and QED Conduit power cable at a bargained price. Smile


Also Bluray movies were selling at about 12 to 17 GBP. Bought 10 movies.


Looking forward for next year's.
