November 2023 – Rogue Audio will proudly be displaying two new products at the Capital Audio Fest. The RP-5 was the first preamplifier based on our groundbreaking new RP-X platform. Now the RP-5 v2 builds upon that award winning heritage with world-class technology borrowed from the RP-7, RP-9, RH-5, and Triton II. The new RP-5 v2 improves both sound quality and overall performance well beyond that of the Matched with our DragoN Monoblocks, the RP-5 v2 is sure to impress.

The Cronus integrated amplifier has been a key product in Rogue Audio’s portfolio since it’s introduction 20 years ago and is widely recognized as the finest integrated tube amplifier in the world in its price range. During that time the Cronus has gone through three major upgrades and several minor upgrades. We’ve improved the sound, increased the power, and added features. Because high- end audio customers often ask for custom upgrades and with the success of other Rogue Audio “Dark” models, it made good sense to create a hot-rod version of the Cronus. With a comprehensive package of upgrades the Cronus Dark reaches a new level of refinement. The imaging defies reason for an integrated amplifier at any price point. The detail is remarkable and furthers the illusion of a live performance.

The Capital Audio Fest takes place this year Friday November 10^th through Sunday November 12 in Rockville, MD at the Twinbrook Hilton. Rogue Audio will be displaying the RP-5 v2, The Cronus Dark, and DragoN monoblocks in room 815. Friday and Saturday the Cronus Dark will be playing from 10am to 2pm and the RP-5 v2 will be playing from 2pm to 6pm. Other equipment will include Joseph Audio Pulsar2 Graphene speakers, cables from Darwin Cable Company, and sources from Rega, Benchmark, and Eversolo.
