Join us while we explore the CES 2020 for some HiFi goodness!

High-end audio is undoubtedly dismal at CES these days. In fact, by the time I was at the Venetian on Friday morning, some of these guys already packed up or closed their doors. Disappointing. However, there's still much to be had with consumer HiFi!

As for True Wireless offerings, Shure, Jabra, and Audio-Technica had something at every price range. One product that I enjoyed was the Edifier TWS NB. At $120, I thought it was aggressively priced. It sounded pretty good. I'll be reviewing this neat TWS earphone soon.

In the loudspeaker department, the most interesting product at the show was the Korean-based KMD Technologies. At $30,000, I was a little surprised I've never seen these speakers at the high-end shows. The KMD700R "Galaxy" Super HiFi full range speakers focus on providing more of a 180-degree "3D" listening experience. Driver cabinets are staggered and placed in a way that provides better time alignment. Overall, a very immersive and naturally toned presentation.
