Time to gather up the crew for some tunes before the holidays. It's a Saturday, 2pm til...

I've made some changes since July's meet. The 300Bs input grounding was brought up to the current version, which removed the internal hum for a 10dB improvement in noise. The speakers have much improved input connections, plus less stuffing and less tweeter. The Buffalo2 DAC has an all new power supply which made a huge difference, and a 5th Belleson regulator for the core. The improvements all add up and it is sounding pretty good now - on the warm and easy side due to the horn loaded speakers. Good imaging, good bass, good detail, with horn warmth smeared all over everything.  :lol:

We will be playing a lot of vinyl, in addition to the digital. You are welcome to bring LPs and CDs.

We could use 2 pairs of purple RCAs, and one PC. Then it's all remote control.

Short notice, but I hope everyone can make it. Pizza, salad and drinks are served. Please donate $5 for chow.

I feel like jinxing myself.....  Sol says amps should be there for me to take home to listen if all goes according to plan....  mythical objects that have not yet been seen in the wild... 

Should be interesting if it does happen....

Hi Steve, Thanks for offering, but I'd like to use my Vista. Can you bring a power cord and a pair of purple RCAs? And some records you like! Thanks

Ken's coming!!  Now it's a party!
