Attachment test.
This started out as an attachment test. It works !!!
Pierre was asking about my system that I offered to bring to the get together this year.
In the mid nineties this was a 2 way system with a passive crossover. It started life as a Pispeakers.com design of Wayne Parham who sends designs to people for free and then helps them on his forum when they need it.
The system is set up as a 3 way system today with an active crossover, 4 channels of ClassD Audio power for the lows (15 inch) and mids (8 inch horn loaded) , and an SMSL 3116 based amp for the top end (1" compression drivers). I use Spotify for source just about all the time these days and have a Musical Fidelity V90 Dac.
Hopefully some people at the get together this year will enjoy it as much as I do.
Grant.

Thank you Grant. This is terrific. The pictures turned out well 🙂.
I for one am very interested in a demo of your system, and particularly curious about the "voicing" you have settled on after living with it over a period of years.
Cheers - Pierre

Thank you for your note (for me), Mark. And thank you, Pierre, for posting the decisions so quickly.
Obviously, you guys are better decision-makers when I'm not there.
Looking forward to our get-together.

Hi all,
Putting together the promotion list. A few issues, like the calendar on this site doesn't take 2016 dates yet!
Everyone's busy working on projects for the event, right? 😉

Is there any interest or need in having a group chat for planning or discussion?
We could setup a 'Slack' channel for this (I don't care for it, but it's very accessible to many folks). Or my personal preference - IRC (though I can appreciate this may be a barrier of entry for many).
I'm happy to do the leg work setting this up if it's something folks think is a good idea.

One other thing that I would be happy to do if folks want is setup a ottawa diyaudio website for pictures and other information.

Thanks for the offer, jj. I'm fine with continuing to use this forum as the main channel of communication.
California says hello.
A freezing 17 above today. Yesterday was 22.
Nah nah! 😀
Hello back California.
I hope you're seeing some nice toys !!! It will be interesting to hear about.
Grant.
Oh I am. And coming back to good old Canada in a few days.
I'll be at this years meet for a certainty.

We're making good progress moving things forward, but now need some help set up a mailing list for organizing this event. Can anyone lend a hand? This will be used to collect input and to organize details.
Please PM me here if you can help set up a mailing list, so we can get this off the ground!
Thanks,
Dave

We have created a google group mailing list.
If you haven't been invited send me a private message here with your email and I will invite you to the group!

We're doing things a bit differently this year. If you have any gear you want to show off, please contact Justin and he'll set you up in the group list. From there we have a google docs sign up sheet where anyone
- bringing gear
- giving a talk
- requesting a talk
- requesting anything measured
needs to enter their specifics in the sheet (<5 mins task)
This way we can pretend to be organized this year. 🙂

And end up having more fun to boot!
I'm willing to give a talk.
But topic suggestions would be appreciated.
The horns you've been working on are of interest for sure.
Grant.
