The High End Audio Show in Munich, Germany, perhaps the most important audio trade fair for good sound, has opened.
Today, May 18, the organizer, the High End Society gave the starting signal and looked back on now more than 40 years of audio show history.
This year, the legendary jazz guitarist Al Di Meola steps in as brand ambassador and talked about music and sound, analog and digital, his first guitars and his idols and friends such as the late Paco De Lucia. In addition, he wished for record stores to come back.
