It was great seeing youse guys again - I hope you had a good time, heard some stuff you liked and got home safely in the winter slop !  We'll do it again when I get the Pass crossover sorted out for the SLOB's.

Cheers, Binger

Binger, thanks for the hospitality. It was good seeing everyone and of course all the great gear. The little Maggies sound great. Let me know when the open baffles are done. I really would like to hear them. Once again thanks for the good time.

Thanks Don.  Gene got me home safe and I see he made it :) 

Don, what was that keyboard players name?  I thought you said Mike Nedonne but I can't find that on Tidal, YouTube or Google.  I must have the spelling wrong.

Mike LeDonne - he has his own band and a bunch of great recordings.  Check him out on Amazon.

Don,
Thank you for hosting another great get together.  Those little Magnapans are very impressive.

Somebody mentioned a magazine that listed the effective tip mass of various phono cartridge systems.  Does anybody know if that list is online somewhere?

Hey Don, thanks for hosting  :thumb:

It was fun seeing some of the old crew and catching up. Those little Maggies are a no brainer at ~$700.

Hopefully I'll catch you at one of the Cars and Coffee events once it warms up a bit.

Don, thanks for sharing your home and letting us experience your excellent equipment. I wish I could have stayed longer but the weather forced me to think about the drive home. What about that utility pole at the corner that was sheared off by the Jeep? That happened just as I was leaving your place.

A huge thanks again for hosting Don! It was a great time as always.

I agree with Scott, those LRSs are amazing for that price! I may need to look up if my amp is capable of driving a pair of those  :green: And that 5.1 remix of Aqualung was impressive too.

Hi, Guys !  Glad you made it all home in one piece !  WRT the utility pole, some genius in a Jeep hit it hard enough to split it halfway up and only the wires kept it off Carman Rd.  We are lucky we did not lose power in the middle of the party !  AmerenUE is fixing it today.  So far no interruption in power.  Those linemen are studs in my book !

Thanks again for all the kind remarks.  We will do it again soon !

Sorry I missed out on meeting a ton of you! Sadly, the weather and its resulting affect on my sinuses conspired to make it a no go. :(

Next time....

Don,
It was great meeting and reacquainting with all the GAS members that I knew from my Audio Musicale. What a great group of guys. Your home and system looked and sounded fabulous. I’d like to hear the Home Theater sometime. I liked the Maggies best. Followed by the Spendors. I’m not familiar with the others but maybe they are some kind of project in the works. They did look stunning for sure.

Thanks again for sharing your home.

If any of you guys would like to come by my place some weekend just let me know.

Steven

Alright: the proof is in the pictures which right now aren't any.
Pics or this didn't happen. Or at least let me see what y'all are talkin about.

Thanks
Don

Found some Ledonne on Tidal.  Odd what shows when you spell it correctly, LOL 

I like an album called From The Heart.

We had so much fun jammin', drinkin' and laughin', I don't think you took any pics !  I can show you the Pass SLOBs - here is a good pic.  The crossover is not done yet, but we did play the full-range drivers.  Pretty cool !

Hi,
I noticed my profile didn’t display my system pictures. I think I have everything uploaded to the Gallery and System views.
The systems have changed a bit, I need to take more recent photos and post them. But you can get the idea.
