Rockville, MD –- November 8th , 2024: Command Performance AV, Virginia’s legendary High End Audio Salon celebrates “HiFi’s Greatest Decade” at Capital Audiofest 2024 with two rooms of products which honor the best technologies of the 1980s, featuring the music which made the era so memorable.
In the Democracy Room, Command Performance will feature the perfect homage to the 1980s: the Audiovector Trapeze Reimagined Loudspeaker, making its US Show Debut today at CAF. In celebration of their 45 th Anniversary, Audiovector has authored a thoroughly modern reissue of their original loudspeaker, whose compact enclosure and compound-beveled baffle promise full-range, state-of-the-art performance in virtually any domestic environment. Notable Audio imports—J.Sikora Standard MAX Supreme Turntable, KV MAX Tonearm and Aidas Gold Mammoth Tusk LE Cartridge—provide cost-no-object analog playback at surprisingly reasonable prices while Nick Doshi’s EVOLUTION-series Monoblocks, Line Preamplifier and Phono Preamplifier bring pure-tube glory to this super system. And because the 1980s are particularly memorable for the Compact Disc, Nick Doshi will bring his 80’s-vintage Luxman DA07/DP07 DAC and Transport for shockingly analog-like CD Playback. REL 99 subwoofers will add the bottom end slam to the 1980s music. Cardas Clear Beyond cabling and HRS EXR-Series racking complete a modern-day super system guaranteed to flatter your favorite ‘80s tunes.
To celebrate the US Premiere of Audiovector Trapeze Reimagined, Command AV’s Democracy Room presentation will feature a nostalgic, 1980’s-themed experience extending beyond music to décor and fashion. On Friday, November 8 th at 2 pm, Michael Fremer, Publisher of Tracking Angle and Editor-at-Large of The Absolute Sound, will serve as Guest DJ spinning that will make blow-dry your mullet, dust off your shoulder pads, and let the music take you back in time.
Command’s Room 305 room display delivers big-system sound at accessible prices, thanks to Gryphon’s Diablo 120 Integrated Amplifier. Sharing its DNA with Diablo 333, this entry-level Gryphon amplifier offers much of the performance of its big brother at smaller size and lower cost. Marten’s budget-friendly Oscar Duo Speakers are the ideal complement for Diablo 120: a gorgeous two-way stand-mount with serious bass impact and remarkable detail retrieval. The Oscar utilizes ceramic-coated aluminum drivers and sloped cabinets for exemplary phase- and frequency response. Aurender’s A15 music server will be feeding the Diablo 120’s built-in DAC while a SOTA Sapphire Turntable, Aidas Cartridge, and Sutherland TZ Vibe phono will handle analog. Transparent cables and Solid Tech Radius Rack complete this real-world, small room reference system.
