RMAF is proud to announce the 2nd year of our Entry Level Room series.  RMAF donates these rooms free of charge to a host of exhibitors who offer new innovative products at a reasonable price for people looking to enter the High-end market. There will be 5 rooms this year, expanded from 3 in 2015.  Each room will feature a loudspeaker and headphone system.  The price point for these are rooms: $500, $1,000; $1,500; $2,500 and $5,000.

 

New to RMAF this year will be the addition of Classic Album Sundays (classicalbumsundays.com) listening sessions taking place in the “Party in the POD.” Classic Album Sundays (CAS) will present full vinyl album listening sessions and discussions. Each session will have an intro to the album, a full (uninterrupted – no talking or cell phones!) listening session of the album and a discussion following.

 

The “Party in the POD” taking place in the Pod Pavilion is presented by RMAF with the generous support of the following RMAF exhibitors: CAS selected albums will be played on a VPI Classic Signature turntable using Channel D’s Seta L phono stage, Pearl3 loudspeakers will be provided by Joseph Audio, amplification will be a Continuum S2 Integrated Amp by the Jeff Rowland Design Group and cabling by Cardas Cables.  Sessions will be digitally ripped using Channel D’s award winning Pure Vinyl software and available for playback.

 

CAS encourages attendees to come listen to music contextually, communally, uninterrupted, and in great sonic detail. At CAS listening sessions, music fans are able to fully immerse themselves into an album that has helped shape our culture and in some cases, our lives.  CAS sessions will be on a first-come-first serve basis and approximately 1.5 hours long.  Doors will close right at the beginning of the session, so get there early!

 

CAS sessions schedule:

Friday: 2 pm: Stevie Wonder – Innervisions; 5 pm: Talking Heads – Remain in Light

Saturday: 12 pm: Joni Mitchell – Blue; 3 pm: Radiohead – OK Computer

Sunday: 11 am: Billie Holiday – Lady in Satin; 2 pm: Talk Talk – Spirit of Eden
