AXPONA 2025

Our in-depth AXPONA 2025 coverage continues! In today’s installment, our chief product reviewer Ken Micallef shares video footage of as many turntables that he could get on camera in 9 minutes (give or take) — plus he zeroed in on a few cool new tonearms and cartridges too, to boot. You can now watch Ken’s video report below, as well as on the official Analog Planet YouTube channel.

Among the tables you’ll see above are new offerings from the likes of Well Tempered Lab, TriangleArt, TW Acustic, Vertere, AVM, SME, Revox, Denon, Garrard, and many, many more. Plus, you’ll hear some choice vinyl selections all along the way, some LPs of which I demo’ed with elsewhere at the show myself. You want something good, indeed. . .

Additional AXPONA reports will be forthcoming throughout this week and the next, so stay tuned. In the meantime — please enjoy Ken’s many spins throughout the show.
