The Vertere Dynamic Groove turntable was on static display as were a display of the different bearings for each table.
Doug White writes: “We were able to achieve good sound in the 21’ x 25’ x 10’ room having never set up there before. Touraj Moghaddam gave a great presentation using the Magic Groove and Reference Groove turntables throughout the event. Rick Mak explained the virtues of using the SmarTractor and his AnalogMagik software. Attendees seemed to really enjoy and appreciate the apparent talent as evidenced by their attentiveness and Q&A. A couple guys had never attended anything like this before and went out of their way to let me know that it was enjoyable and the best sound they’d ever heard.”
