Thanks to Mike and Sharon.  Had a great time.

I also want to thank Sharon and Mike for a great day. Nice house in a beautiful setting with great weather, fine food, good music and great people - wow.

Mike's system sounded wonderful - I liked the combination of Karl's preamp with the Cherry best. I also though the Lampizator was the best DAC there that day.

Thanks again to the hosts, and everyone else who was there. Now, who's hosting November?

Sharen and Mike,

     Thank you for hosting another fun rave at your home.  Thankfully the weather cooperated this year.  I enjoyed listening to all of the equipment.  The Lampizator DAC was excellent with gobs of detail.  I also enjoyed the ModWright amplifier.  It lent wonderful textures to the music. Karl Tam's preamp was excellent with nice sound-staging and detail.   But I have to say your system is excellent as it stands; none of the equipment substitutions were trans formative, just different.
      As usual the food and drink were plentiful and delicious.  Thank you again.

                                                                                        Jim

Big Thanks to Sharen and Mike, the most gracious of hosts, for a wonderful gathering of friends, music, and food! I got to listen to Mike's main system before the equipment swapping began, and it sounded wonderful to my ears.

Best to All, Barry

Thanks Mike and Sharen for hosting a pleasurable Rave. Finally, had a nice day to enjoy our surroundings.

Your system sounded very good, especially playing sacd's on the Krell. We tried different combinations. I liked the set-up with your VAC or Carl's preamp going into the Cherry hooked up to the Krell best.

Had a fun time!

I'd like to post some of the pics but I don't seem to have the 'Gallery' entry on my headings.

Sorry Gene. The Gallery Link in the toolbar was broken from the hacker attack. It is scheduled for repair.

AC doesn't allow submarining pics. John is a talented programmer! ;)  So you have to go there, click on the first one, and use your keyboard arrows to do a nice slideshow.... :)

Pictures are awesome, Thanks Martin!!
Nice pad Mike!
