Benchmark is excited to return to Capital Audio Fest this year for another awesome show! This year we have partnered with Martin Logan to showcase our AHB2 and DAC3s. You can hear the compact power the AHB2 is able to produce as each of the 5 AHB2 amplifiers will be driving a Martin Logan speaker as a monoblock. You will be immersed in the music hearing every detail while the 5.1 surrounds you and transports you back to the recording studio.
You are not going to want to miss this amazing 3 day event in our nations capital!

"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." - John 15:13
On the evening of July 17, 2022, my oldest son David Paul Siau gave the ultimate sacrifice of love when he knowingly gave his life to save those he loved. He took three shots from a 12 gauge shotgun so that his wife, children and sister could be spared.
David is survived by his wife Christy Siau and their two oldest children, ages 6 and 3. His 18-month old daughter McKenzie was killed within moments of David. I have no doubt that David and McKenzie entered into God’s glory hand in hand.
My daughter-in-law Christy Siau was shot and nearly killed in the incident. We are grateful that she is now out of the hospital making a full recovery.
In the end, my daughter Christina Siau fought the attacker with a knife and prevailed. She sustained many knife injuries and it is a miracle that she lived. She is now out of the hospital and making a full recovery.
We ask your prayers for the healing of physical and emotional scars. We have been overwhelmed by the love people have shown to our family during this difficult time.
