Well, I already have a full AQ system so I don't need anymore

Thought I'd let everyone else have a chance.

Title says it all!  

Richard Vandersteen was in attendance sharing his knowledge about speaker design with us...Knowledgeable and down to earth guy!

Bill Low and Steve Niemi of AudioQuest were both in attendance as well!

Randy Cooley of Optimal Enchantment was a gracious host to open up his salon to us. We experienced the Vandersteen 5As driven by world class Audio Research gear! Beautiful sound! Front ends used were DCS CDP, Esoteric UDP (new model), a $5,400 Audio Research CDP and Oracle TT. Cabling was Mt. Everest SC and Sky ICs...Synergy was absolutely splendid!

I have to agree.

These meetings are fabulous.  Where do you get the chance to talk to such great names in the Audio Industry and hear their thoughts, theories, history, and direction???

And the system was a treat "especially since I jumped right in the sweet seat" and got to hear the real deal.

For those who weren't there it was great conversation and listening and where can you buy into a raffle where over 70% get something??

The big prize (as far as I'm concerned), was the "Double BiWired pair of AudioQuest CV-6 Speaker Cables with silver spade terminations".

Thanks Bill Low and Steve Neimi Of AudioQuest for bringing them.

And also thanks to Richard Vandersteen (of speaker fame) and Randy Cooley (Optimal Enchantment) for the rest.

Look for Randy to have a Dealer listing soon in the dealer sticky.
