RMAF 2013 Show Report (Rocky Mountain Audio Fest)
Saturday's Coverage

exaSound Audio Design is here @ the RMAF 2013 showing their new e28 DAC. This is the world's first eight-channel DAC capable of DSD playback at a 12.288 MHz (DSD256) sampling rate. They also had the e20 Mk III and the e28, which are the first consumer DACs capable of PCM up to 384 kHz/32-bit and DSD up to 12.288 MHz. 

 

 

Von Gaylord Audio brought their full contingent including the VG-8 speakers and Starlet 4 integrated vacuum tube amplifier. Really did enjoy the sound of this relatively small system.

 

Audioengine just launched their D3 24-bit/96kHz USB DAC for headphones.

 

Enjoy the Music.com Blue Note Award earning Coincident Technology Turbo 845 SE tube amp was here at RMAF 2013. This unit produces 28 wpc stereo and uses a 6EM7 for input and 300B for driver. Each channel takes advantage of the 845 for output. 

 

Music Hall’s sweet sounding Ikura turntable ($1195) has looks to match the sound.
