This is a good news, Ed!

And you've found it?
I meant for truth seeker.

I'm always teasing I become that if I drink more than necessary.

Gyuri, Cheers! The search continues...I'll be looking for it that weekend along with other good people.

 

[Gyuri]

Yes, we are constantly looking for that, but we will never find it.
This is certainly true.
This is a kind of paradox, I think.

 

[Ed LaFontaine]

Nov. 17 looks like the date.

Location is set in Lawrenceburg, KY. Looks like there will be a casual gathering on Friday evening for those traveling in from out-of-town.

I understand a set of JeffB's Tritons-the design with CSS' new drivers-will be there...leads me to consider taking a pair of Lynn Olson designed ME2 for some side by side.

Not a partsexpress customer, so posting here. Thanks for the headsup, it is only 60 miles from here. Haven't heard a hifi speaker demo since 1976. Will be bringing a piano CD for seriously tough to reproduce sounds. Start time? 11/17/12 Indianajo

124 Township Square, Lawrenceburg, Ky

Not absolutely sure about the time. Proly 9 am 'til late afternoon.

Would enjoy meeting you.

Do you work on tube amps? Like my ST70?

 

[indianajo]

Dynakit ST70/PAS2 maintenance since 1970. Tutored by the MacIntosh salesman. Want me to bring it? Updated it last year. But the ST120 sound better. I'd like to meet a few experts, I'm just a tyro.

 

[Ed LaFontaine]

There are guys expected to be there whose work continues to fascinate me...just don't tell them that.

Doors open at 8'ish. 9 is when we will try to start playing.

I'll bring my SymAsym amp, ME2's, a side table sub and introduce the "Rigels".

I am interested in edumacating my ears to a variety of amps.

Matt has entertained bringing his Crown Com-Tech 400, so since Rory will likely also have his Hafler, there should be plenty of amps present.

Later,
Wolf

It sounds like the speaker geeks may have an amp shoot-out. Some of the prospective hardware includes:

ML38

Hafler
Threshold S/200
Symasym
ST-70 or ST-120
Crown ComTech 400

In advance of th tonight's casual meal gathering, one participant warned:

"If the server asks if you want "Gigante margarita", you say no".
