Audio Troy Capital Audio Fest the good, the bad and the ugly!


Just came back from the great Capital Audio Fest.

A lot of great rooms, a few surprises, missing brands, and some winners and losers.

The great:

Doug Whites The Voice that is system of Tidal gear, Innous Statement, and Tidal loudspeakers just was stunning sounding.

The big Genesis system in the Vpi room was quite excellent. 

The Old Forge room's Sound Kaos speakers were superb.

The Cat room with the Kef Blades proved the Kef Blades are a true contender with way more expensive loudspeakers.

Dadelius speakers sounded very good, unfortunately the system was $200k!

The Bad:

The $120k Devore's new reference speakers were good but not $120k good at this demo

More to come.

@verdantaudio I heard the MC Audiotech at the 2018 CAF and was really impressed by it.  Back then they were talking about a launch beginning of 2019.  When that didn't happen I kind of assumed that they had gone under.  Then they popped up again at 2019 CAF.

What I heard was really extraordinarily good.  Too big for my room, but really impressive.  Much much better than, for instance, the Muraudio, that a lot of people seem to like.  Clearly, MC needs more exposure.
