Fast becoming one the best pairings we’ve heard are the Salk Sound speakers, with the McGary Audio tube amplifiers and Anticables cables (still an odd name for a cable company, but I like it). Salk […]
Some things bear repeating, others demand it. Room 526 at this years Capital Audio Fest 2021, reinforced things we loved and learned about Spatial Audio and Linear Tube Audio way back in 2019. Along for […]

My reason for wanting to cover the 2020 Florida Audio Expo was ostensibly about taking a break from the cruel Rochester winter. When I arrived in Tampa on Thursday evening, the temperature was in […]

TAMPA, FL (PTA) — As far as I remember this was only the second line array at the show. The other being the one from Bob Carver. Each one sounding much different from the other, […]
“Some of the best business connections I’ve made were while I was smoking a cigar,” Mark Conti of MC AudioTech told me. We met out in the little smoking area of the outside patio at […]

“Wow…how much do those weigh?” the show attendee asked, and I thought that was a rather odd first question. This was the McGary Audio and Salk Sound room at AXPONA 2019, and the relatively simple […]
CHICAGO (PTA) — This year’s AXPONA audio show is already on course to be their biggest, and most newsworthy yet. Lots of product debuts are happening at this show, and we’re committed to […]
