Hi all,
I would like to invite my friends and fellow members to come over on Saturday November 5th from 3:30 to 7:00 pm for a fun listening party. Dave Thomson owner of Raven Audio will be there with his 150 watt 6550 Mono blocks (Silhouettes). My gear is.....Spectron Mono blocks w/bybees and V-Caps, Black Diamond Music Vault, LampizatOr Level 5 DAC and CLS 9 speakers (formerly Arthur's).

I will have refreshments, soda, beer, wine and food. We will have a fun afternoon and get to hear some great music. Please bring your favorite test / demo CD's, I would also love to download them onto the music vault

Send me a PM and I will send you my address, also please let me know how many will be coming with you. This will help a lot as far as preparing the food etc.

Kind Regards,

Guy

Guys,
Here are some links to info and reviews of the equipment that we will be listening to. Just to give you a flavor and or an idea of what will be on hand. I understand reviews are just to get you in the ball park and the rest depends on your room and your taste.

New guy here.
I'm in Arlington and know just enough about high end audio to be dangerous.
I would love to see whats available as I'm about to upgrade my system.
Is this in the DFW area ?

Thanks;
David

The LampizatOr Level 5 is breaking in nicely

Just a brief update, downstairs we will have a pair of Audio Nirvana 12 inch drivers from common sense audio in a bass reflex cab set up with 28 watts of 300b power from Raven Audio

Sounds like a fun day. If you were smoking some Brisket I might just have to fly in.

Enjoy your day .

what time do we get started?

playntheblues · « **Reply #15 on:** 2 Nov 2011, 08:45 pm »

3:30 Marv., look forward to seeing you, it has been a while. It looks like the Audio Nirvana speakers will have to be in the Garage as we have an open stairwell from upstairs, it works like one big bass port for the CLS 9's upstairs

But the garage will be set up nice enough to get a good idea on the A. N. drivers and the 300b amps from Raven.
