Though the Rocky Mountain Audio Show happened almost a month ago I'm just getting around to a show wrap up. Between the Australia show, coming back with a nasty head cold, and then getting hit with HP's sudden passing, time flew.

Another new VPI turntable? Yes. These guys are prolific! The new Avenger is best described as a "chopped" HRX, re-shaped and re-purposed to be 3 arm capable.

What could be more appropriate to plug your wooden turntable into than the iFi phono preamp built into iFi's Stereo 50 Vacuum Tube Amplifier complete with two-way LS 3.5 speakers?

Covering all the new analog gear at RMAF was more than enough to deal with but luckily in the hotel gym I began a conversation with Mike Johnson Director of Sales America/Canada for Pendalumic headphones and I promised to check them out in the CANJAM headphone area.

If you need more proof that vinyl is here to stay, consider this product from DS Audio a newly formed business group of the Digital Stream Corporation (DSC). DSC co-developed with Microsoft the optical mouse and for more than 25 years has provided industrial laser optics for medical testing systems and for laser-based medical optical instrumentation.

RMAF is a big show this year and much more ground must be covered but so far the analog news at the show is that there hasn't really been any. The big news has been headphones and computer audio.
