Thank you Mike and Sharen for hosting the March Rave....you picked the perfect day...Saint Patrick was happy.

Tasty offerings and good company always bring out the best... :thumb:

Notes...

Nice to meet Ed....hope you get the chance to enjoy a few more Raves...their fun.

Thanks Ed (Cramer) for the photos...good to see you again.

Thanks to Jim, Barry, and Tommy for the equipment...always nice to hear something different...new....and exciting....enjoyed the listen.

Had a nice time at the end of the night listening to Mike's system...the new extras added really took it up a notch...a very pleasant sounding system...and I think the platforms really added to that sound.

All in all, a good day...no traffic problems....and spotted a deer on the way out to the road...he might of been looking for Oliver and Oscar... :rofl:

Thanks again to all...see you at the next one. :beer:

And a belated thanks to Mike and Sharen from me (had to work yesterday, so no tome to hit the computer). Great weather, good tunes, a beautiful house, good friends - what's not to like?

I was particularly impressed with Jim's little ICE amp - sounded stupid good for the money. Mike's rig sounded the best I've heard it. And the concert videos were fun as always.

A big thanks to Mike & Sharen for hosting a enjoyable Rave!
Finally the weather was real nice to enjoy the beautiful surroundings outside.

The system sounded very nice, once we took out that monster digital cable.

Good food, tunes, and company.
I had a fun time.

Thanks Again,
Joe

I would also like to give a hearty thanks to Sheren and Mike for hosting another one of their terrific Raves.  Great to see the two Eds after such a long absence.  It was nice to meet Fred.  Thanks Ed C. for bringing him.  The weather was spendid, as well as the company and food.  Mike's main system sounded very nice.  It was fun hearing the sound differences in the other room as each piece of equipment was swapped. 

p.s. Mike - a great start to the F1 season.  I think it's going to be very competitive this year with 3 or 4 teams having the potential to win races.

I had a nice talk with AJ this morning about his speakers and we got together on a set of Cherry with Gray baffles like Jims. I should have my set in the next few months once I get some finances worked out so I am pumped!!!!!!!!!

Good move Ed.  You're probably getting your pair before I get a review pair.

   Still waiting for our demo pair. we worked out an agreement with AJ to demo in the NY Tri- State area. In all fairness to AJ the KEF drivers were unavailable for quite some time due to a flood in the KEF factory. He is a one Man shop and the orders are piling up as they should be. great product Ka Boom bang for the buck.
   His larger speaker is no slouch either however $7500, hoping to have both available soon for demo.

When you hit the "REPLY" link to a message, at the bottom left,  you'd see "Additional Options".  Click on that, you'll be able to upload pictures.  Supposedly, the gallery method is better, but I've not done it.  It's similar to A/C I guess.
