REEL-TO-REEL RAMBLER AT HIFI SHOW 2019

David Denyer, also known as The Reel-to-Reel Rambler, will be joined by an impressive list of audiophiles who will showcase and celebrate reel-to-reel master tape at The Hi-Fi Live Show, Ascot on 26th and 27th October.
Ascot will see The Hi-Fi Show Live's first-ever Reel-to-Reel Rambler room.
Naturally, here you'll find an exciting selection of R2R decks – from vintage models including Studer, Revox, Technics, to the new and contemporary Ballfinger M-063 and hot-off-the-press Metaxas T-RX.
The reel-to-reels will be partnered with a high-end system that really shows off the incredible sound of master tape, including Aesthetix amplifiers, and Kerr Acoustic speakers.
Additionally, the room will feature three of the world's leading audiophile recording labels.
Mike Valentine of UK label Chasing the Dragon, Marco Taio and Mauro Bertorotta of Italian label Open Reel Records, and Ed Pong of Canadian label UltraAnalogue Recordings will all be present. Expect talks and presentations that provide a peek behind the scenes into their tapes, artists and recording processes. Furthermore, there will be a chance for question and answer sessions too.
Ever wondered how analogue tape is made? Well, one of just three current audiotape manufacturers in the world, RecordingTheMasters, will be joining the throng from France.
Finally, expert R2R engineer Petronel Butuc from The Audiophiles Clinic will be providing a tech advice surgery. He will cover what to look for when finding and restoring vintage machines. Furthermore, servicing and repairing decks, and more will be discussed.
We've definitely got this room on our 'must visit' list.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
