Thanks.

Got my rooms reserved. Looks like the Facebook page is going to be the main information point.

Room 214 will highlight gear made and/or designed by the late Gary Dodd.  Speakers will be the GR-Research X-Statik kit with upgraded crossover.  Gary's electronics were ground breaking designs that still hold a place among the very best of amps and pre amps.   He was a constant champion of getting off the grid to create a black background for music to emerge from. 
This room will be tubes and vinyl.  Bring an LP or cue up some of mine, sit back, and enjoy the music.

Looking forward to it Scott.

I'll be in room 201. Speakers will be GR-Research NX-Otica monitors paired with GR-Research/Rythmik Audio dual 12" servo subs.

I'll also have a pair of GR-Research LGK 1.0 desktop monitors in a separate setup.

Now, back to spraying some more lacquer on these .....

A fun exhibit featuring a product getting some buzz is Scott Warren's Advanced Audio Systems https://www.advancedhometheater.com/ who plans to exhibit the Kii speakers.





Scott has room 209 booked.

Here is pic of a partially built X-Statik that will be playing at the LSAF this weekend. 

Also in the chain will be Gary's battery pre with a face plate that I did.

Dealer and distributor Derek Skipworth's Audio Thesis is taking two rooms that will certainly be worth a listen. AudioThesis is now the U.S. Distributor for both North Star Design and Rosso Fiorentino Loudspeakers. In one room Derek will again feature the Rosso Fiorentino Elba that so impressed last year this time driven by the North Star Design Blue Diamond Series integrated amp and CD Player / DAC.





Derek is especially excited by the sound of his primary demo system featuring Rosso Fiorentino Fiesole speakers, Dayens Ampino Preamplifier, Dayens Ampino Monoblocks, and North Star Design Magnifico
CD Transport plus Supremo DAC.

I can bring these items I have up for sale to LSAF this weekend if anyone attending is interested or you are welcome to come to my home and audition them. Sorry for the shameless plug.

Another LSAF 2017 tasty treat, make that treats center around Joshua Miles' JWM Acoustics. Miles' speakers and turntables will feature in thee different rooms.

Joshua's room will have his flagship Jane JKM speakers driven by Raven Audio Reference line tube amplification.



The fit and finish on Raven Audio gear is something you need to see in person, and like all this stuff you gotta be there to hear it!




The Karen-12 with evolutionary improvements anchors the analog front-end.



The 'other' Joshua, in this case Joshua Masongsong of I believe in HiFi will be will be presenting Aries amplification via JWM Acoustics speakers and a Karen 6 turntable. I do not know which amp is to be used so here are some pics as teasers and to see these certainly qualify as 'exotic'.

Will you be in a specific room?

Thank you.

No I did not rent a room. But I'm a local and can easily bring the smaller stuff (assuming someone has interest) with me for viewing in my "parking lot room". The bigger stuff, well PM me and we'll discuss as I don't know what you are interested in.

Hey Scott

Thanks - if I see there is some genuine interest in something I have up for sale, I'll let you know. I just don't want to haul everything up to the show and turn around and haul it back home. Regardless I'll stop by your room and say hello. Thanks again for the offer.
