This year at The New York International Audio Show, attendees had the chance to experience analog audio at its finest. In the Now Listen Here room, vinyl was spinning on the impressive VPI Avenger Direct, paired with the Backert Labs Optik Phono Stage and DS Audio W3 and W3 Mono cartridges.
This combination delivered everything vinyl lovers crave — texture, depth, and musical realism — captivating everyone who stopped by. The Avenger Direct’s precision engineering, combined with the clarity and dynamics of Backert Labs’ phono stage, created an unforgettable listening experience that showcased the artistry of analog playback.
The room stayed lively until 4:00 PM, leaving attendees with one last opportunity to hear what many considered one of the most musically engaging systems of the show.
Thanks to Now Listen Here, along with VPI Industries, Backert Labs, and DS Audio, visitors were able to experience music the way it was meant to be heard — pure, dynamic, and unforgettable.

Hey everyone! 👋
I recently had to set up a small network at home and was surprised by how many different types of ethernet ethernet cable there are out there — Cat5e, Cat6, shielded, unshielded... it got overwhelming fast. 😅
After digging around a bit, I found this super helpful article that breaks everything down in plain English:👉 https://enableit.com/ethernet-cable-types-explained/
It really helped me figure out what I actually needed (and what I didn’t). Hope it helps someone else here too!
Each run in Snow Rider is unique thanks to its endless, randomly generated tracks.
