Below is a post from Bob Levi regarding the next SCOCAS meeting and the raffle for a Cary 308 CD Player.
This is at Upscale Audio and all you tube folks might find it interesting, since Kevin (?) is a tube guru.
===============================
Dear Members,
It is our sincere pleasure to announce two fantastic
surprises at our August 22nd Audio Society Event and
Barbecue at Upscale Audio!
Dennis Had, President, Chief Designer, and world
renowned audiophile at Cary Audio Design, will make a
rare west coast appearance at our August Event. This is
a quite a coup for our highly regarded Society and will
be a fantastic opportunity to enjoy great audio
conversation with one of America's legends.
With great thanks to the wonderful generosity of Dennis
Had and his extraordinary company, Cary is giving the
Society a Cary 308 CD Player with 24/96 Switchable
Upsampling, HDCD, and Remote [$1500 list] to raffle at
the Event!
http://www.caryaudio.com/products/audio/cd308cd.shtmlThis is one of the most valuable gifts ever given to an
Audio Society in my long experience. What a fantasic
and gracious gesture of good will to our Society and
its members from Cary!
The August 22 Event at Upscale Audio is for Members and
Lifetime Members, paid and honorary, and a guest [no
children please.] If you have not become a member as

So mark your calendar for Sunday, August 22nd,
1-4:30pm, for the Annual Barbecue and Audio Event "par
excellence" at Upscale Audio with most gracious host
Kevin Deal and special guest appearance by Cary's

raffled to a lucky audiophile!!
