2013 RMAF Analog Reports + Meet and Greet


2013 RMAF Analog Reports + Meet and Greet

Please feel free to post your attendance plans now and your analog experiences after the show.

The Rocky Mountain Audio Fest is quickly approaching. Just like the last few years, I’m planning to use this thread to capture anticipated analog related information about the show as well as impressions.

The past five years of RMAF visits have been fun, entertaining, and rewarding. I go to the show for many reasons but mostly to meet other music lovers/audiophiles and industry professionals. The diversity of music, equipment, and personalities are very interesting to me. A link to last year's comments can be found here: 2012 RMAF Comments

AudiogoN member Cello has set up a meet and greet on Friday night @ Garcia's Restaurant located across the street from the Marriot. The past four meet and greets in 2008, 2009 2010, 2011, and 2012 have been very enjoyable. I expect the same from this one as well.

When: Friday, October 11th, 2013

Where:
Garcia’s Mexican Restaurant
5050 South Syracuse
Denver, CO
Tel# 303-779-4177
Directly across the street from Marriott Tech Center
(Back Room)

Hi All,

This will be our 5th Meet & Greet at Garcia’s at the 2013 Rocky Mountain Audio Fest. It will be Friday evening from 6-8 at Garcia’s across the street from the Marriott.
If you would like a copy of the flyer, send a PM
Please come and join us between 6-8 PM @ Garcia’s Restaurant directly across the street from the Marriott Tech hotel (we have reserved the back room).

Garcia’s has been kind enough to extend a 2 for 1 drink special to us (along with free Chips and Salsa) for Margaritas and Beer. You can also order food and have dinner as well.


In the previous years, it has been suggested that we put our AudiogoN Monikers in the field below our names on the RMAF badges. I think this is a great idea to continue into this year.

I'm looking forward to meeting (and catching up with) many of you at the show,
Dre

Any new analog turntables or electronics being shown at this years show or some must see units that are worth seeking out?

I hear there will be a Saskia II on display this year with the EMIA electronics

Dre
Additionally, the Saskia II will have the Schröder LT and Reference tonearms mounted.

If past experience is any indicator, this should be a VERY nice analog setup.
It appears that Dertonearm will be at RMAF showing his Axiom tonearm in room 9023.

Any other Agon members showing analog equipment?

Is so, what room? Raul?
Oh boy, I'm down to 20 LPs to transport as carry-on luggage. I'll be in Denver in less than 24 hours.

Looking forward to seeing you Win. In less than 24 hours I'll be stopping by the room. :)

Good to hear the Etna is ready for prime time. Been waiting on this one a while. My other Lyra's are getting lonely. Maybe this one can join the crew.

Bobsdevices, I'll be looking for you in the ballroom.

Off to finish packing I go!

Dre
The Meet and Greet went very well. We met many new faces and saw many familiar ones as well. A great time was had by all. Thanks to all who made the meeting.

The second day for the audio systems confirm that they are warming up nicely. Sunday should be very good for some rooms.

Loving the vinyl...
