Roy Bird CHAIRMAN, THE CHESTER GROUP, ORGANISER OF THE SHOW

WHAT MAKES US HAPPY?

Often the simplest things...

If you are anything like me, you may well skip over the Editor’s introduction to a magazine, newspaper or, in this case, the Show Programme for this year’s Australian Audio & AV Show 2014! I do understand that. But just for once perhaps you would do me a favour and read on, because hopefully this intro is a little different and will strike a ‘chord’ (pun intended!).

I was recently relaxing, watching some TV after a pretty testing day in the office. I can’t remember what I was watching — that doesn’t matter — when up came a commercial. I took little notice until some delightfully soothing orchestral background music came through, not loud but tastefully supportive of the commercial... which also included some clips of Australia so I guess it must have been a holiday ad of some sort.

That music at that point in my day was quite beautiful, almost surreal in its ability to transport me away... so much so that that the moment had gone when I grabbed my smartphone’s SoundHound app to identify the tune.

But in those few brief moments, three things happened.

Firstly a reminder of how utterly wonderful music can be to all of us. Secondly a demonstration of the amazing technology that we now have at our disposal. And lastly a sudden realisation that the Australian Audio & AV Show was then just six weeks away — a show that embodies both of these two life-enhancing elements, music and our everadvancing technology.

The creation of a Show like this is not easy, but if you love what you do, as do my team and I, then sometimes it’s not so much like work as a joy, and to be coming back to your country is something that I genuinely look forward to.

I do really enjoy your country and your win-win ethic.

So for me these are simple but significant joys, and I’m deeply indebted to our great team in Australia for their fantastic support, our Media Sponsors at NextMedia, and last but not least our wonderful and loyal exhibitors. Now in its fourth year this is without doubt the longest-running existing event of its kind in Australia, and we are totally committed to its continuation and ever broadening appeal.

I hope sincerely that all those that attend will agree with me that this Show is one of those simple but significant joys in your life that we can all look forward to.

Finally, the first person to look me up during the Show and confirm he/her has read this little piece will be treated to a nice cup of coffee (or tea!), a snack and hopefully an www.chestergroup.org amiable and joyish chat.

See us in Room No. 307

Richter’s Legend Series V is all about the music.

With high-end sound increasingly distracted by technological one-upmanship and cosmetics, Richter’s new Legends are inspired by the classic meaning of ‘high fidelity’ – to close your eyes and hear music so real and natural you feel your favourite performers are in the room.

To achieve this, Richter has put their all-Australian knowhow into two years of research – guided by their philosophy of superior musicality and affordability – to develop all-new drivers, electronics and cabinets.

From the top Our new proprietary soft-dome neodymium tweeters provide wide dispersion, producing a lively and spacious sound with smooth musicality, and a response extending well beyond human hearing.

The highly efficient mid/bass drivers harness composite cones combining the natural acoustic

finesse of paper with the strength of modern carbonfibre technology.

The awesome bass is rich, deep and firm, and the Thor V subwoofer can be switched between hi-fi and home theatre modes to tailor your sound for their different demands.

New crossovers were painstakingly designed and tested by our team of experts to produce emotional vocals and an astonishingly vivid sound stage.

The cabinets have been completely redesigned using non-parallel panels to reduce standing waves, and the comprehensive ‘internal ladder’ bracing is positioned to minimise harmonics.

And for an ultra-smooth listening experience, ask for a demo of Legend V speakers powered by one of Richter’s perfectly matched valve amplifiers – the Mystique or the Sorcerer (with USB input/DAC).

Do yourself a favour, just listen!
