Sunday March 29, 2009 Ramada Plaza Convention Center I-25 at 120th Ave, Northglenn/Denver 10 am - 3 pm   Winner: BEST VINTAGE ELECTRONICS "Leave it to Queen of Collectibles Dana Cain. When her boyfriend, artist Peter Illig, was scouring estate sales for vintage stereos, she was inspired to create the Vintage Voltage Expo. "It's sort of like a cross between a vintage guitar show, a record show, an electronics flea market, an old audio store and a radio swap meet," Cain explained last year. The first Expo was a complete success, featuring approximately 75 vendors and a contest area where collectors could show off pieces to win "voltage bucks." Turntable demos and talks on subjects such as Nikola Tesla were also part of the mix."   Pictures are all from the show last March!       Dozens of Vendors from Around the Region Selling: vintage electronics - old school audio gear - tube amps - antique radios - transistor radios - speakers - turntables - vintage LPs & 45s - hi-fi - synthesizers - stereos - 8-tracks - electric guitars - amps - vintage TVs - ham radio - commercial equipment - video games - parts - etc!    -- All kinds of cool old electronics and music stuff! --              It's like a: -  Antique Radio Swap Meet - Vintage Audio Convention - Record Collector's Show - Used Electronics Flea Market - and a Vintage Guitar Show ALL IN ONE!  How fun does THAT sound??!!   Bring a FRIEND and come on down!

"Dana Cain is so hip it hurts. She has that knack for knowing which old stuff is especially new again, and has used it to build an empire of totally entertaining collectibles expos. .... Her newest take on collectibles-hawking was the recent Vintage Voltage Expo, an electronics-centric show that included everything from vinyl records to guitar amps to old-school audio gear. There's a packrat in each and every one of us, so go, Dana, go!"
