Capitol Audio Fest

Did anyone else attend Cap Audiofest this year? I've seen no threads about it, I was only able to attend Friday afternoon but heard some good systems. Favorites for me,  Shindo/Auditorium 23, Zu Audio, Tidal, Classic Audio/Atmasphere, and Deja Vu Audio. I thought the Zu system with Omens and First Watt Sit monos was the best value priced system. Best system overall the stunning Deja Vu vintage system with their field coil speakers just astonishing sound.  I wish I had gotten more time to spend looked like there were lots more rooms this year.

Was there on Saturday. German Physiks was best room of show for me. Lots of good sounding rooms. Got to at least briefly sample most. Came home with a good deal on a Chord Mojo portable DAC.   Also heard  ATC Harbeth and Tekton for the  first time.

Not sure how I missed it, but would have gone.

Talked to a few people in NYC this weekend, and they told me the CAF went off really well.  3X the rooms, and far better sounding than the NYC show, unfortunately
