Yeah, it was "blue hairs" on one side of the gym, and "grey hairs" on the other. Few dared cross over………..

So yeah, not much success this time. Had plenty of interest and complements on what I brought but clearly the bulk of it was too pricey and just too new. In the end I sold a couple of pairs of car speakers and a pair of interconnects.
I did get a good workout hauling, unpacking, setting up, packing and hauling again all those speakers.

I think if you can hold this event on a fairly regular basis it will start to gather some momentum. There has been a lot of people wanting something like this since The Speaker & Stereo Store stopped their swap meets.

Yeah, even list it on CL as "bring your own stuff to sell!"

"Clean out your basement!" kinda thing

i was very impressed! id like to own a pair of AT-1's someday. i was standing at the far end of the gym when you turned them on, i spun around and immediately had to go look at what was making that beautiful sound.
i did not expect sound like that from a pair of tower speakers with dual 6" drivers.

do you remember what was the first song you played? i spent my evening yesterday listening to jazz hits trying to find something similar.

Yeah the music at the far end of the gym was really "in there"..... I think Marcus Miller mostly.

Thanks John,
Like Willie said it was probably Marcus Miller. I was running my Marcus Miller Pandora station all day. Just seemed to show that speaker off well. And I must correct you, they are 5 1/2" drivers.

Does anyone in this group know a Brian Sturma? I have a Marantz 2275 that belonged to him, two owners ago and I am looking for some history on the unit.

Thanks!
