I'm down.
I still want to host a one on one or two with someone(s), too... At this point it'll be fall though - the AC makes the SNR about 60dB in here in Summer.

I’m open to it if theres enough attendees to make it worth while- so indicate your interest here
Tor Pub Library has 5 circulating copies of Toole's book, 2018 edition (second edit but called 3rd edition, don't ask why). Don't miss it.
Sound reproduction : the acoustics and psychoacoustics of loudspeakers and rooms
Third edition.

As soon as the AC is off, I'll have a small gathering here if there's interest.
Also, for those near a library - I think you'll find most books under 621.38284 will be interesting.

As much as I like get-togethers with fellow audio enthusiasts... my central interest is speakers and their acoustics. Those aspects are hard to demo as a group and in Dave's place (otherwise, he's a wonderful host, of course).

Sadly, no. I would love to see the Thomas Stereo/LiiSong room. Take pictures and let us know what you think.
I didn't take pictures of that room, but found the Liionidas Extreme OB very impressive, even in a room with very suboptimal dimensions. (You basically had to listen near field.)
I went with Dennis Hui on Saturday morning and we got to meet Thomas (Thomas & Stereo) as well as Loic (HiFiCave). I was hoping to get to meet Jay but the only time we saw him was during lunch and we didn't want to bother him while he was eating. I really wanted to ask him where he got the FirstWatt F7 pilot run unit from that he reviewed about a year ago.
We got to listen to the Liionidas Extreme speakers with the Galion TS-120 upgraded edition and I really liked what I heard in that short audition. I won't go into any detail since it was so brief but there were rooms that sounded great, rooms that disappointed and rooms that surprised me in a good way. The Lii/Galion combo was one of the standouts for me as well as the Polk R200
The lighting was pretty dim in the room and I had to go super-wide to capture it but I did manage a few pictures of the Lii/Galion setup
Cheers

That seemed to be the case with all the set-ups that were in the smaller hotel rooms, as opposed to the larger meeting rooms.
Snakes. You didn't know Toronto hotels have a big python problem?
Same here. It's colder out now so my A/C can be turned off now.
I wouldn't mind having a small gathering.
