Greater Toronto Area DIY meetup

[ticknpop]

Tentatively Sunday Sept 19th, 10 to 4 - we’ll have the door open in the other unit and or our back as well to keep a breeze hopefully.

Double vaccinated with proof to attend, and masks as you see fit.( i will ).
If that doesn’t suit your health politics, respectfully wait for a hopefully better time next year …….

Hey Dave!
That's fantastic! I'll be there for sure. I crayoned this into my calendar.

It would help me cater the event if I knew how many were coming - if you could indicate your attendance - thanks

 

[bentoronto]

Can't attend, regrets.

I have some medical tests shortly after (mostly routine stuff) and they will give me the evil eye if I admit to any group event in prior days.

Regrets here as well. Beyond dentist and chiropractor I don't venture out much Enjoy

Would love to attend.

but,

My grandson's first birthday party so no offense but that is priority over you guys.

 

[ticknpop]

lets not get too obsessive - an email copy of vaccination is fine

Would anyone be bringing a 8 ohm cab? I would like to bring a guitar amp....I have a keyboard cab that is huge and is something like a million pounds but not guitar cab. I'm hoping that I won't need to bring the keyboard cab....
Thanks.

The in house speakers are 4 ohms, very efficient JBL 4 way 100db @1 watt so you shouldn’t have any trouble to drive them - people have used 2 or 3 watt single ended amps to drive them. Not musical instrument speakers, very large studio monitors - copies of the big 1970s JBL 4350 studio monitors in black plywood

theres also a few 8 ohm 12 inch JBL coaxials hanging around on baffle boards

 

[Flavious Maximus]

I can't seem to find my vaccination receipt. (I guess that's what happens when you use it for a bookmark!)

I'll have my sh*t together for the next one for sure, so I can show off and see all the cool projects!!

Today is the day. My plans are to be there and say hello to anyone else that shows up.

Wishing you all a safe trip and hope to see you! I'm thinking of taking the 407 ($$$$) from here simply because it will save time, and looking at the drivers out there, it will be a safer and less stressful trip.

Posting a link to my ad for a mint AP test system in case anyone is interested and missed it in the swap meet forum.

No doubt great for sorting-out my south Florida "cottage" audio system but, you know, so hard to take time from sitting around the pool today.

Now where did I leave my bottle of sun-tan lotion?

Seasons greetings to all.

It's 14°C here today

 

[anatech]

It has dropped now and falling like a stone! The wind is just howling out there as it has all afternoon. We lost power briefly.

7°C and falling still ...

Happy Holidays everyone. Maybe things get really normal again within 6 months. Even perhaps spring 2022.
