Gathering at Zybar's in late July - any interest?

zybar · « **on:** 5 Jul 2011, 12:18 pm »

Guys,

If there is interest, I can host a gathering at my house for an afternoon on either the weekend of July 23/24 or July 30/31.

My system (http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?action=systems;area=browse;system=711) is mostly the same as when I last hosted (which is a good thing). The big difference being I added an Atma-Sphere MP-1 preamp and Speltz Zeros into the mix.

Not overly keen on switching gear in and out, but if somebody has a killer DAC that they wanted to bring over, that could be cool.

When you reply as to your interest level, can you also say which date is best for you?

Looking forward to hanging out for an afternoon.

George

George - I just checked with Nancy Reagan's astrologer and I have to recommend against scheduling anything for July 34th. The prospects are very bad.

Very interested. Mark

If I were within a 250 mile radius I'd be there with bells on. Alas, I am not by a long shot. Soak up some of the city, too. "New York, New York . . a city so nice they had to name it twice!"- Jon Hendricks. Ya'll have fun.

Zybar,

I'm a DIY'er in Central New York. Happen to be coming to Boston on the 23/24th with my son so he can attend a Flight School in Norwood.

Would love to stop by if the "event" is still on and I could be invited. Where are you?

THANKS

Charles King

Jim,

I actually live outside of Boston and have been up here now for 5 1/2 years. However, I still love NY and it is indeed a great city.

I'm interested... Looks like the 23rd won the vote; is that the date?

I lived in Holliston when I was 3, then in Norwood from 10-20. Spent many happy hours at Norwood Airport! I wish I could make your meet George. I'd love to hear your Vandys and AtmaSpheres. Maybe next summer when I visit my sister and inlaws. Have fun!

I'm interested, but I don't know yet if I'll be out of town on the 23rd. I'll know within the next couple days. The weekend of the 30th: I'm out for sure.

Probably 3 to 3 1/2 hrs from NYC.

Guys,

I know this Saturday won in the poll, but I am having car troubles and need to spend time this weekend looking at possible replacement options.

Either July 30th or July 31st will have to be the dates that we shoot for.

Sorry for the last minute change (engine trouble on my current car just happend this past weekend).

Turns out I will be on Nantucket this weekend. July 30 is the Newport music festival, so that's out for me, too. Good luck car shopping; it sucks when it's not anticipated but it's always fun to get new wheels.

George - sorry about your car. Is the gathering still happening on the 30th or 31st?

Guys,

July 30th would be best for me.

I know it won't work for some of you, but I am game even if it turns into a small gathering.

George

The 30th works for me.

I'm south of Boston. Looking forward to meeting fellow AC'ers and hearing your Atma-Sphere/Vandersteen combo.

-Greg

DougSmith · « **Reply #18 on:** 22 Jul 2011, 09:30 pm »

I can do the 30th.

zybar · « **Reply #19 on:** 27 Jul 2011, 03:41 pm »

Shoot me a PM if you are going to attend on Saturday and I will send you the address.

I am thinking a 1pm start time.

George

Poll

Which day would work best for you?
