It would be a drive but depending on the date I may try and make it. Plus I really need to go down south to visit friends and family. Please keep me posted. By the way very nice work there.

Ladies and Gentlemen, how does 11am-3pm (or 4pm) this coming Saturday, April 21 work for everyone? I would prepare a light meal for us to snack on as we enjoy a bunch of different loudspeakers and maybe some things that folks care to bring over. I should note that I am not the kind of guy who has spent thousands of $s on gear. I built a bunch of speakers (mostly single driver, but also a pair of Plutos) and have a bunch of different sources (nothing exotic) and some amps I built myself and ordinary cables in-between. I am mostly just saying this to simply set expectations. No Ferraris in my house (except perhaps for the Plutos which I find quite amazing).

Bla, bla, bla.

If you want to come this Saturday, post here so others can see and send me a PM so I can give you the coordinates.

But first we have to see whether we get a quorum for this Saturday. If there are too few who can make it relative to those who would want to, we'll look for another date.

Hello,

Peter,

Really appreciate your offer of hosting the event! I AM free this coming Saturday, though I probably wouldn't be able to make it at 11, but more towards 1ish. Next Saturday would personally be better for me, but that's just my schedule.

I can bring a pair of Hafler M5 nearfield studio monitors, which are a well-engineered, neutral, compact pair of monitors that are the cheapest speakers I've run across which don't do anything particularly wrong.

Can also certainly bring some foodstuffs to lessen the burden on the gracious host - just let me know what (juice, bagels, etc.)...

cheers,
-Tal

Hello again,

Okay, so life just happened, and I can come now come early, but not late.

Perhaps putting it off until we can get more than two responses would be a good idea?

cheers,

I'm out, not going to be able to make it.

With 2 positive responses so far I think it may make sense to try for a later date to get possibly more responses. The next two Saturdays are out for me, but I can do the 12th of May. Sunday the 6th would work as well.

Thoughts?
