ANOTHER mini-MD Get Together

[TNRabbit]

Hawkeye is coming over for a listening session this Saturday at 2:00 p.m. Anyone else in the area who is interested is welcome to join. Hors de'vores will be served & if it goes on long enough, I'll order a few pizzas. :cool:

We'll be listening to my Sunfire/Carver system (see TNRabbit, System Showcase) & you are welcome to bring any components, CDs, SACDs, etc. you want to try out with it.

PM me for directions to my place in Lusby, MD.

[TNRabbit]

dorokusai? F1Nut? Anyone else in the area is welcome~

[NJPOLKER]

Gary,
Thanks for the invitation and I am sorry that I can't make it. You guys will have more fun without me anyway.

[TNRabbit]

.... You guys will have more fun without me anyway.

??? :confused: :p :cool:

[NJPOLKER]

ooooooooooooooooooooops

[NJPOLKER]

I am from New Jersey everybody hate guys from NJ

[TNRabbit]

Not you personally; just the way yooz guyz talk....



:p

[Hawkeye]

You guys will have more fun without me anyway.

We have to have at least a third or fourth to avoid this implication!:D

Gordon

[TNRabbit]

Holy crap, Gordon; I just saw your sig line---I didn't know you had TWO 2 JL Audio F112 subs!

[dorokusai]

Gary - I'm probably 50/50 right now since I have a audio elbow rubbing dinner to attend that evening. I have to actually shave and **** and that's a tall order for me. I'll hit you up offline and at least get the addy, see what shakes out.

[TNRabbit]

kewl....but shaving optional~

[chargerman426]

Gary- Really appreciate the open invit. I hope the snow dump on us agin I have been hearing 16-30''

[Vette C6.r]

I'm with you Charger. I wish I could make it Rabbit but we are suppose to get an a@@ load of snow.

[TNRabbit]

I don't know where these estimates are coming from; all I've been able find is 1-4 inches....?

[treitz3]

I have to actually shave and **** and that's a tall order for me.I don't believe that for one second. You'll probably show up in assless chaps all Goth'd out, stubble and all.

[dorokusai]

Maybe.

[Hawkeye]

Holy crap, Gordon; I just saw your sig line---I didn't know you had TWO 2 JL Audio F112 subs!

Well Gary, it's like this. Most of the things I like in life come in pairs. A woman with 2 eyes, ears, legs, arms,.......:D

Actually, I could never get the REL I have to blend well at all with my speakers. After some research and hearing a stereo pair, I was sold. I got a killer deal on the pair.

They are actually out of balance right now. I've added some new traps to the room and haven't had the time to rebalance them with the new traps. I have some new peaks, a bit of bloat and overhang I need to address over the next several days.

Gordon

[F1nut]

Snow Friday, 1 to 3 inches...ending Saturday night with up to 2 feet at that time. :eek:

Everyone in MD stay home or you may die on MD roads because the state has used up all it's snow budget already!

[TNRabbit]

ANYWHO....

Just throwing it out there as Gordon & I will be enjoying ourselves whether anyone else comes or not~

[Amherst]

Everyone in MD stay home or you may die on MD roads because the state has used up all it's snow budget already!

I have proof of that sitting in my driveway. Never seen soo much salt stuck to vehicle from the drive through MD last weekend.

They really could have saved a bit of salt for another time!

Hope the weather doesn't crap on you guy's this weekend.

[MillerLiteScott]

I think it is going to really crap on us this weekend. Last weekend will look like a walk in the park.

[chargerman426]

Second that. They are saying this going to brake record set in the 50's!!! I know some of you guys are old but I don't think many would remember those snows.:)

[Vette C6.r]

Rabbit - isn't there a winnery in Lusby ?

[TNRabbit]

Do you mean WINERY? There are several local wineries in the area. Cove Point winery is located here in Lusby~

[TNRabbit]

Cancelled due to BLIZZARD.

[treitz3]

We'll be on this earth for a while Gary, no worries.

[dorokusai]

No one needs some hick from NC anyways.

[MillerLiteScott]

I will have another one tonight. Just bring your own 3 axle dump truck, salt and shovel.;):D

[Hawkeye]

At least I got to rest up yesterday! Today I have to dig out unless one of the neighborhood kids wants to make a couple dollars!

Gordon

[Lasareath]

Cancelled due to BLIZZARD.


What Blizzard?, I got like 2 inches of snow!

[TNRabbit]

Does Snow know about this??!? :p

Anybody stupid enough to "rub elbows" with you? Boy is that an invitation for disaster.

[george daniel]

Hey,, it snowed in Jawja for about 2-4 minutes yesterday,, in the extreme northern parts of the city/state.At the first sight of a snowflake, the locals rush of to their neighborhood Publix's,, leaving the major arteries open for traffic,, so me weekend at Bennies went better than planned,,but that another thread.
Hope you guys keep warm and safe.

[F1nut]

Does Snow know about this??!? :p

Hehe...:D

Will do~

[Hawkeye]

I was the first to have to leave but fellas, I had a great time! The music was secondary to meeting some great folks. Gary and I have been trying to get together for about 8-9 months, just didn't seem to work out until this weekend.

All that Carver gear had me reliving some of my youth!. I had forgotten how the Sonic Holography could bend the sound in such a positive manner. I'll post more of my impressions within a few days.

Thanks for the great time Gary!!

Gordon

[TNRabbit]

You're welcome, Gordon; sorry you couldn't stay longer~ you missed some great music!

Bruce from AudioKarm forum came today; he brought his Polk RTi-55 speakers; they sounded great! Also had folks from Carver as well as Gordon from Polk Audio forums.

[hearingimpared]

Very Nice! I wish I could have attended as it looked like a great time.

[TNRabbit]

It was great to meet some other locals I've only talked to online. Gordon, let's not wait so long for next time~

I enjoy getting together with like-minded (or not) individuals & discussing audio, music, etc. I most always come away learing about a few new recordings to add to my library.

I'm listening to Monte Alexander: My America on SACD right now. Bruce & I auditioned it on his Polk RTi 55s yesterday....I have been thoroughly impressed with all the Monty Alexander I've heard thus far (on Telarc).

[TNRabbit]

I was thoroughly impressed with Bruce's Polk RTi 55 speakers. We finally got them dialed in with the sub & it sounded d@mn good! Too bad the guys who left early didn't get to hear that~
