I think I got child care that day.   I will try to wiggle out of it but you know how that goes...

Edit:  Now I can save my husband points. 8)

Folks,
Sent out a PM with directions and contact info if needed for this Saturday.

woodsyi, there is probably room for one more if you can make it. 

We will all have to take turns in the listening seat. 

Hope to see everyone there!

Woodsyi can have my spot as I just finished talking with my daughter and I have to go up to Towson this Saturday to take care of things for her.   

Sorry for the late reply, but hopefully it was soon enough that someone else can take my spot.

To add some enticement, I will bring the MS-2 Music Server prototype to the gathering.  This way folks can see it.   Might be able to swap out Avoosl's MS-1 for a trial at the end of the listening session.

Do not forget to bring music!

Vinyl, CD, SACD, DVD-A, Blu-Ray, USB drives supported.   File formats are FLAC, WAV, MP3, AIFF and DFF are all playable. 

It might take a bit, but 1/4" reel-to-reel is available.

How's that for format support? :)

On a more serious note, 45RPM LPs OK?

Hey Rich, I've got about 40 guys and a rock band on a bus headed past your house Saturday on the way to Tampa Bay (Go Eagles) and I told them it was okay with you if we all stopped in to hear a real hifi system.  I promised them if they didn't like your selection of music you had plenty of 220v outlets for the band to hook up and plays some hits from various '70s hair bands.  Could you be so kind as to run out and buy a few extra kegs of beer and a side of beef or two.  They'll have had about three hours of heavy drinking by the time we get there so that might slow them down a bit, but I'd make sure you don't run out, they get kinda surly when they're thirsty or hungry.  Oh, and plenty of toilet paper and a few plungers, all that liqueur on the way down tends to loosen them up a bit if ya know what I mean.  Anyway. lookin' forward to 1 o'clock tomorrow, you aren't a Redskins fan I hope.

Only if the band plays Black Sabbath music and I get to choose a good beer!  If so, I will bring the guitar rig! :)

See you tomorrow at 1PM!
