Really we just had drinks and played music. Loads of fun.
the reason i have not brought a system to the show is i want to be free to roam around.
Mike,
Wouldn't be possible to lock the door, tape a sign to it saying, 'Back at 3 o'clock', and go see the rooms?
I missed the last two years' shows because of unavoidable conflicts, but I have the 2016 fest on my calendar and I'm looking forward to it. :thumb:
I'll be there representing Audio Thesis. I'll be bringing out the Rosso Fiorentino Elba's for sure, but not certain what else. I am working with someone now to make LSAF 2016 return to high end status with some true flagship speakers from a major manufacturer. More to come on that front.
Thanks for catching that Ron, wouldn't want to make the haul to Dallas with my system on the wrong weekend.
I'll see if I can find out.
The reservations link still has a 2015 date in it.
Not that my opinion matters but May 6th would be a bad option as it may give any one that has dealings with Axpona (APRIL 15-17, 2016) a chance to get it back together....not sure what Wayne or Steven had in mind, and there is yet to be any postings on DIY. I too would like to plan accordingly.Blowtorch was a cool room last year. You guys planning on 2016?
FYI if anyone gives a hoot I'm the other guy in the Blowtorch room with Russman, just wanted to intro myself.
Thanks...and Happy New Year

Cheers guys

The main url lonestaraudiofest.com points to the the 2015 info. The average guy out there isn't going to to be able to figure out the lonestaraudiofest.com/info.html is the 2016 info, and that guy isn't going to show up at this year's meet. This really needs to get fixed yesterday. Who needs to be told? Also, once you figure out how to get to the 2016 page, the "Click Here for the most recent news and information! (http://audioroundtable.com/forum/index.php?t=thread&frm_id=42)" link points to a page at Audio Round Table that doesn't have a 2016 thread.I posted on the Face Book page that the main LSAF page only shows 2015. Hopefully they can/will fix.
Is there really going to be a LSAF 2016?
Bob
Thanks. I don't do FaceBook, so I am probably missing stuff. I'll reactivate and go see.If I Google "Lone Star Audio Fest" I get the 2015 page.

Don_S, in the first few paragraphs of my LSAF 2015 show report I attempt to "explain LSAF".

I have always attended the show on a saturday, but this time around, i've a few other things on my plate. How is the show on a sunday? I read someplace else that a lot of the exhibitors vacate early on sunday ... Will it be the same case this year?I hope not as I'm driving in early Sun morning as well.
Mr. Clark, what do you think of Bob Brines speakers?Mixed review of the Brines speakers. I'll send a PM. Very realistic on vocals- probably the best at the show.
BTW those Amps that Legacy shows with where buzzing like freaking mad at Axpona. Like... all of them playing and not playing. There was 3 or 4 stations.
OK, here are photos from LSAF 2016. The show pictures start at the bottom of the 1st page.Great pix, thanks

The finish work looks better in person, Mike!

Hi Mike,
I do want to followup on the 'head start' for LSAF 2017. Personally I need to attend to some other items on the To-Do list first. The time it took to author a 7,000+ word 105 picture show report basically back burnered every other audio project and some of them need A level attention.
happy listening
Norman
