HiFi Shows are about so much more than the amazing HiFi systems that the exhibitors put together, they are also social hubs where people from the industry, audiophiles and HiFi Fans all come together and enjoy listening to music, chatting, exchanging ideas, and having a lot of laughs.
It was also fantastic for us (Stu and Lin) to meet up with so many of our readers, your kind comments really made our weekend and it was brilliant to see so many HiFi PiG T-shirts and HiFi PiG Fans around the show.
