More online magazines (Audio Beatnik, Wall of Sound, and Audio Bacon) have been added to the Audiophile’s Guide to the Galaxy making a total of 81.
Seems like a lot – certainly more than the handful back when we started this blog a little over 12 years ago now!
A lot of them are really good, helping us stay energized and reminding us why this is such an awesome hobby.
You can follow stories (those that have an associated image) from these 81 magazines on Facebook on Cheer’s High-End Audio Facebook Page, or on the Cheers High-end Audio Party.
Audio Bacon. They had a great LA Audio Show report
Wall of Sound – A Canadian online magazine
The Audio Beatnik – A new online magazine from Jack Roberts who used to review for Dagogo
A.J. Conti’s Transcendence turntable debuted at the LA Audio Show, 2017, earlier this month.
The impressive specs are listed on the Basis website: A.J. Conti Transcendence.
This was his last and greatest design before he passed away unexpectedly late last year. I snapped a few extra photos.
The table is sitting on top of a new Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) VXR equipment rack.
A.J. was a proponent of using science to design tables [as opposed to say, Walker turntables, which use experimentation to arrive at their designs] and could argue his case quite convincingly :-).
He was a friendly face at just about every show we went to [even back in the day when I wrote more… acerbic… show reports :)] and he will be missed. Basis, the company, will continue with his wife at the helm.
