AXPONA 2022

The Audio Company Presents VSA and VAC | AXPONA 2022

April 29, 2022 Marc Phillips 0

Oh gee, another photo of The Audio Company room with Von Schweikert speakers and VAC amps? Phillips must have gone to another high-end audio show. It’s true that I often kick off my show coverage […]

Nola Champ S3 Loudspeakers | REVIEW

April 17, 2022 Marc Phillips 1

It took me over two years to get the Nola Champ S3 loudspeakers in for review. I’ve been making sideways comments over the last few months about the state of international and domestic shipping of […]

Charney Audio Maestro Loudspeakers | REVIEW

July 11, 2021 John Richardson 1

  From my first exposure to Charney Audio speakers at a Capital Audiofest a few years back, I’ve remained somewhat smitten with the possibilities that exist in the world of well-designed single-driver speakers. The single-driver […]

Von Schweikert Audio ESE Loudspeakers | REVIEW

June 12, 2020 Marc Phillips 6

“Are you busy right now?” said the text from Von Schweikert Audio’s Leif Swanson. “Come back to the room when you can. We made a change.” This was back at the 2019 Capital Audiofest where […]

Qln Prestige Three Loudspeaker | REVIEW

May 15, 2020 Dave McNair 5

Last November at the 2019 Capital Audio Fest, I had a fantastic time hearing numerous amazing systems and meeting some great folks. One of the many rooms I enjoyed was hosted by Well Pleased AV […]

CAF 2019

Fern and Roby Raven II, LTA, Black Cat Cable, Auralic | CAF 2019

November 19, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Fern and Roby Raven II, LTA, Black Cat Cable, Auralic | CAF 2019

As I mentioned, the Fern and Roby Raven loudspeakers were featured in two separate rooms at the 2019 Capital Audiofest–in that very special room with ModWright Instruments amplification, and this room with a more familiar […]

CAF 2019

Odyssey Audio, Symphonic Line, Magnan Cables, VPI | CAF 2019

November 17, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Odyssey Audio, Symphonic Line, Magnan Cables, VPI | CAF 2019

As I mentioned in my Friday Highlights for the 2019 Capital Audiofest, Odyssey Audio had an absolutely beautiful room. I’m not just talking about the sound, which was indeed beautiful, but the room itself–it was […]

CAF 2019

Perfect8 Technologies and Ypsilon | CAF 2019

November 12, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Perfect8 Technologies and Ypsilon | CAF 2019

I was excited to see that Perfect8 Technologies and Ypsilon were exhibiting together at the 2019 Capital Audiofest. I’ve always felt that Ypsilon is in the running for the greatest solid-state amplifier manufacturer on the […]

CAF 2019

Spatial Audio, LTA, LampizatOr, Innuos, Anticables | CAF 2019

November 10, 2019 Marc Phillips 2

I tend to search out the Spatial Audio rooms at high-end audio shows such as the 2019 Capital Audiofest–they usually pair with Linear Tube Audio, one of my favorite amplifier manufacturers, and they always achieve […]

CAF 2019

Daedalus Audio, LTA, LampizatOr, WyWires, VPI, Soundsmith | CAF 2019

November 8, 2019 Marc Phillips Comments Off on Daedalus Audio, LTA, LampizatOr, WyWires, VPI, Soundsmith | CAF 2019

Part-Time Audiophile has been covering Daedalus Audio high-efficiency loudspeakers for years, but I’ve only listened to them once before–at last year’s Capital Audiofest. The Daedalus Audio room was the very first room I covered at […]

CAF 2019

Audio Federation, Acapella, Audio Note UK | CAF 2019

November 7, 2019 Marc Phillips 1

Audio Federation had a deceptively simple system at the 2019 Capital Audiofest, something that was less than obvious when you considered the gigantic Acapella Campanile 2 loudspeakers dominating the room. But yes, it was a […]

Capital Audiofest Friday Highlights | CAF 2019

November 2, 2019 Marc Phillips 3

It was fairly difficult to come up with Capital Audiofest Friday Highlights, and not for a bad reason. I don’t like to judge rooms on sound on the first day of the show–it takes at […]

Acute Inflections, Electric Psychology | The Vinyl Anachronist

October 22, 2019 Marc Phillips 1

Acute Inflections is a jazz duo that takes a bold approach to arrangements. All you hear on their new album, Electric Psychology, is Elasea Douglas’ voice and Sadiki Pierre’s bass. That might sound austere, but […]
