Anyone here going ? Starts Thursday.

[sucks2beme]

No. I buy old stuff, not new stuff!

I can see this coming: as the economy is in the crapper, all manufacturer will start a "GREEN" gears program, recycling old technology for the masses....

Oh please god no. I'm actually just hoping for a word on a new generation of netbooks as well as 3rd tier chinese manufactureres driving the prices of 1080p lcd/plasma down since sharp and lg fixed their prices.

Also I'm looking forward to the demo of Windows 7 as I am out of town and do not have my external dvd drive to burn and install the windows 7 beta on my 1000h. I can also hope for Windows Mobile 7.

I wont be there.. but I will be watching from afar.

Edit: I don't want to make a new thread but I'm also looking forward to the last macworld.. If there is ever a good time for a serious "one more thing.." it is tomorrow.

I want to know how the Pass Labs SR-1's sound. I'm in the process of building a pair of custom speakers and they just happen to have what appears to be the same midrange.

and they just happen to have what appears to be the same midrange.

http://www.passlabs.com/images/sr-1/sr1_images.htmYep looks like all SEAS Nextel drivers and SEAS Excel tweet.


I noticed them on their site several months ago but they still have not posted any info on them.I like the separate mid tweet /bass enclosure arangement ,I used this set up on my mains, but they don't look anything near as good as those.

Where's it at? Looks like it's in Vegas. I won't be going in that case. If they had it in Chicago I'd be there.

Those are some sexy speakers...Are those 4 way's? Or is one of the drivers a passive radiator? I'm really digging the two seperate cabinets design.

[Face]

Yes, they're 4 ways.

As for cabinet design, I'll be going modular also. One cabinet for the woofer, one for the mid and tweeter. I kind of wish I did just build one cab though, then wiring would be simpler.

Anyone have anything to report from CES? :)
