The Burning Amp Festival- an Audio Happening

[ashok]

My copy of The Design of Active Crossovers should arrive before I leave here ! Won't have too much time to go through it properly.

Rather nice comprehensive work, imo, as accustomed by now from Mr Self.

Nelson "Papa" Pass mentions that he will present more about the SITS, and the actual Beast of a Thousand JFETS, and the Slot Loaded Open Baffles in his room

I suggest that you have a muzzle, leash (most likely a heavy chain type) and bib on hand for ZM......

I'm thinking that he will be on those like a b**** in heat.

Need sources, Preamps, Loudspeakers. where are those cool turntables from last year? SIGN UP people!!

 

[Variac]

Don't forget the link before your component: Speakers need speaker cable, amps & Preamps and sources need interconnects

Mark - where do you want us to sign up? Just post a message here or send you PM? Here's what I thought I could bring:

Preamp: Threshold FET 10e line stage - not really DIY but I've restored it and built an upgraded PS that improves the sound quite a bit

Amp: 2A3 single ended based on the Baby Ongaku design of Gordon Rankin

If you need speakers, I've got some Altec 755C full range drivers in 2ft3 boxes. I've also got a CD transport, the TEAC VRDS-T1, a Thorens TD524 turntable that I brought in past years, and a Pass ONO phono stage. Transporting all of this up might be a bit much, so feedback on what would be interesting to others would be appreciated.

Thanks,
---Gary

OK - I'm in.
Btw, the phono stage is an ONO clone, not a real Pass ONO.

Well, all the better for Burning Amp

A request from a member in L.A. : He wants a ride up to the show!
What an opportunity to talk about audio for hours!
Send me a PM if you can help him out...

 

[Variac]

I've been tasting sausages all week and have narrowed it down to about 5 types, all delish! and I have a baguette maker lined up to get us crispy crusty rolls! AND I just got Zen Mod a slab of granite to put on the grill so he can cook them the way he does back in Serbia. .

 

[ashok]

Almost there !

OK guys. I've arrived at NY and will be in the SFO area tomorrow.
I can see that a lot of work is going on to provide enough booze, food to hog and muzak and equipment. Boy...what a treat this is going to be !

 

[Zero Cool]

are there Burning amp T-Shirts available to purchase??
