The Audio Underground Roadshow (AUR) followed up its inaugural event in Sacramento, California with a very well attended second roadshow at The Village Recorder in West Los Angeles, the following day on Sunday.

Audio aficionados from the Los Angeles area congregated in the venerable recording facility's historic Studio D for a pre-AES Convention sneak peak at new products from some of the industry's top boutique manufacturers.

"The purpose of these roadshows is to give end users a chance to talk to engineers ````and manufacturers and learn on a one-to-one basis the intrinsic values of the gear being shown," says Lunde. The event was co-sponsored by TapeOp Magazine and studioexpresso.com.
