I would like to host a rave at my house.
Full rave, vinyl and digital, both cd's and computer.
A few of us went to GT Audio house today and heard his latest speakers and associated electronics and it was friggin great!

I was thinking maybe the 1st or 2nd saturday in December.

Full rave with food and booze.

Please respond by pm or here on this thread if you are interested, system will be Gregs speakers and electronics, this was my idea he is not selling anything at this rave, this is not to promote a product but rather to have everyone experience what a great sound I heard today.

I am serious about hosting this rave, but only if there is significant interest, with all the crap that has been thrown around here lately maybe some people would rather stay away from me, which I understand.
Let me know what you think and I will put it together.
I would like to extend a special invite to Rollo as a lot of crap has gone between the two of us.
Don't know if you know this but Greg received a Gold Award at CAF for one of the best sounding rooms from AV showrooms, when I left his place today I completely understood why he got that award.

Maybe I should come

It's only about 2100 miles from Saskatoon to New Jersey.  Hitch up the dogs to the sled. If you leave now you could probably make it  by early December.   :rofl:

Sounds like a great idea. I would love to hear the GTs. Unfortunately I already have commitments every weekend in Dec.  :roll:

December is a tough time of year for a lot of people to pull free for a day. Perhaps you might get a better response if you pushed this out until after the holidays.

I certainly wouldn't want you to move it on my account, but if you end up not getting a good response, think about trying at a later date.

I think it would be great to get things going again and would hate to see it wither and die simply because it was planned at a busy time of year.

+3 to what Tom & Greg said.  I'd look forward to a Rave, but January/February might be a better time. (Weather permitting of course!)

Just my 2¢
