In recent years, Capital Audiofest has continued expanding to encompass exhibit rooms across more than four floors in addition to dozens of other exhibitors in conference rooms and halls throughout the hotel — 125 rooms, and 50 booths in all — including vinyl and accessories sellers in the atrium. We here at AP figured we’d approach things a bit differently this year and post multiple, short-form analog-centric highlights from the show across several brief installments — so, without further preamble, here’s Part 1 of Julie Mullins’ show report, featuring gear from Belleson, Rega, Linear Tube Audio, and Anticables. . .

Last week, Capital Audiofest ruled large in the Washington, DC area from November 8-10, 2024 — and, as always, I anointed our main product reviewer Ken Micallef to shoot as much video footage as he could of all the cool turntables and other analog-centric gear and goodies he came across at the show. CAF offers “a world of vinyl, gadgets, turntables, amplifiers, loudspeakers, and the mad audiophiles who love them,” as Ken has noted about the show in recent years, and CAF 2024 once again delivered on that promise in full. You too can see what Ken saw at the show in the 9-minute video we’ve just posted on our YouTube channel that you can also now watch in the story below. . .
