LMAO! Nice one Skilly.

Wow,

It seems a bit extreme to hire the man just to avoid his questions about when his parts are coming in.  :lol:

Congrats, and I hope this works well for you both.

Congrats and much appreciation to Hobbs, Danny and crew.  We know how busy you all are and I recall Hobbs responding to some of my comments and inquiries a while back when I was doing my first GR Research build.  Given how capable Hobbs has proven to be as a supportive-enthusiast-expert, Danny you might want to task Hobbs with tracking down the NX woofers for his first assignment.  HA!!!

Hope the move goes well Hobbs!

What?!?? Danny hired Hobbs? Oh rats I read the title and was hoping for a thumping 21" woofer.  What a disappointment. 8)

Seriously now and all kidding aside great news for Danny, GR customers, and Hobbs.

NQ drivers are expected to be here this week, with more in production.  :thumb:

We also got some cool stuff in the works that should be announced in the coming weeks. But can't really say more than that.. (yet) :wink:

Lol! That is damn funny!   :lol:

And congrats Hobbs! I always thought something like that would be the best "retirement job" for a guy like me. Enjoy!

You are really making your "Fun with Speaker Design" post into reality! Can't wait to see what there is in the pipeline.

Such an audio tease Hobbs. Is it Christmas yet? I would love to see a kit better the CSS Criton 1TD at pound for pound (USD549) from Danny and you guys. I am sure the encores do but they have anfair advantage at USD249. :):):):)

Maybe some day! Maybe once production isn't an ongoing issue.. :P

Hobbs, I read in some of your posts that you were busy moving, but I had no idea.

I almost feel like GR Research just hired a friend of mine (if I can be so bold to say that).

Congrats to both of you!

That's fantastic Hobbs!  I'm in South Florida and was gonna ask if you'd be willing to audition your listening setup.  Seems like Danny beat me to the punch!  😂. But I'm super happy for ya man!  I think Danny got himself a keeper, Congrats!  I'd love to pay GR a visit once the new listening room is complete.  How's that coming along by the way?

Yeah, sorry about that! It all happened pretty fast actually.

It's still got a good ways to go, and part of me coming in will allow Danny to focus on other projects, like the new listening room, along with a bigger work space, while also measuring the 20-30 something speakers that have taken over the shop.

Then with the M130 & NQ drivers, it's gunna be really busy the next few days trying to get the A/V & NX orders out the door. But hopefully we can start making some real progress soon!  :thumb:

Oh, and now perhaps Danny will have the bandwidth to drive down to the Houston area to calibrate my setup.    :green:

Congrats, Hobbs!  Just a little jealous as anything related to electronics is interesting to me and speakers is a sub-topic I like, have fun.
