The Day Before, Part 2 (January 7)

Continued from Part 1.

Following the Reference 3A presentation, the team took a break, something that won't happen on the days of the show. John Crossett and Marc Mickelson went LP shopping ...

... while Doug Schneider and Roger Kanno went shirt shopping, the result of Roger Kanno telling Doug that he has way too many black and dark-blue shirts that all look the same. "Get some color in your life!" Roger proclaimed.

Decisions, decisions.

Following the break, it was back to do more award presentations. Roger Kanno, aka "Mr. Las Vegas," couldn't help but point out the new Encore Hotel located beside the Wynn.

The team presented another award on behalf of Home Theater & Sound to PS Audio for its Premier Power Plant power conditioner. Company president Paul McGowan is in the center and is actually holding the award. During the same visit, we learned about the company's new PerfectWave transport and PerfectWave DAC, which are showcased in our ShowStoppers section.

The day's not over yet. Continued in Part 3.
