Nice article Randy  :thumb:

Hey, I'm up for doing the shoot anytime. Who knows, maybe we can talk Bob (brick) into coming down to shoot it at the same time.

Hell, Scott, I've offered Randy a shoot in my studio!  :lol:  It'd be a lot easier (for me) for Randy to bring the speakers to me (so I can hear 'em in my room :icon_twisted:), but I could do it pretty much anywhere.

Should work fine for me. I've got a another guy coming over too but that shouldn't take more than about 45 minutes or so. Not sure what time he's going to be here but it shouldn't take me away for too long.

What time are you guys thinking?

So Randy, if you were to get up in front of folks and present your design theory to folks would that make you a public speaker?  :)

Great article.

Hey, could we make it mid-morning or so? I forgot, my grandson is coming over sometime in the afternoon  :thumb:

Hey Randy, be sure to bring your crossover. I'd assume you would want it included in the pics to (sort of) accurately represent the system people are looking at. I've got a number of different looking SETs we can swap in and out of the scenes.

Oh, I've drastically reduced the stuff that was on the headwall too. I removed the hanging (square) lights and the equipment rack. When you guys get here we'll remove the Altec horns (those f'ers are heavy in the sand filled boxes). That will really clean up the look of the headwall even more leaving just the wood paneling and audio gear. We may even pull the cables to clean it up some more.

I've got a couple more ideas but I'll bounce them off you guys when you get here.

Hey Bob, are you going to make it? If so, are you going to bring portable softboxes or do you want to shoot in available light? I could cobble together some constant source (read=non-flash) light towers and diffusers if you want. I normally shoot available light and do minor post production color correction with Adobe...but that's just me.

Hey Mark, can you bring a couple of horns too for props? I've got the saxes. We may be able to work those in too. Not sure if you have any stands but those might be useful too.

Anybody got a guitar and stand they want to bring? I'll see if I can swipe the one I bought for my daughter this evening.

This could actually be fun  :thumb: Think about it, we'll be shooting audio porn  :lol:



....now we just need a hot chick in a silk dress and we'll be set

Sorry, guys, this is the weekend that I clean up the basement and start decorating the audio room.

That, and I'll stay home with the hot chick in the satin dress.  Eat your heart out! :lol:

Yes it has to be early. Hammer, call me tonight so we can talk it through. Scott, I'll bring some "artistic" looking horns with stands to decorate.
