    Where and when?

    I have some windows of opportunity, but they are few and small - but I do have some.

    H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    That's up to John since he's calling the fest. My place is always open if you want to meet before you get your house John but I realize that's a good drive for everyone in LA.

    If in LA, I can bring with me the following:

    Polk Monitor 5s
    Polk SDA CRS originals
    An extra pair of MIT Shotgun S3 IC's

    I would buy you a ticket and pick you up at the airport, but thanks to the gift you fine people of Chicago gave our country... I'm broke! :-)


    It is looking like the best venue may be Doug's place once again, so if that is ok with him, we should let him pick a date/time.

    It's on! For starters, let's see who is game for August 18 or 25 or getting into September (1st or 8th). I don't know which of those dates I'll actually be available as I have to check with the wife to see if anything is planned.

    Of those the 15th might work for me. Right now I am up to my eyeballs; make that 10 feet over my eyeballs in church business and will need to blow off some steam. If I can go I can bring my excursion and pick you up John if we can split the gas money.
    What is the height on the Maggies? Might be able to add a third rider to help with gas?
    Might also be fun to shootout between my CS 400 and CS1000 in Doug's theater.

    They are an impressive 7 feet tall and only 3 inches thick.:biggrin:

    As an aside, I am looking at another meet in November that promises to be LOTS of fun, and there will be benefits to attending this little shindig. Looking at getting a raffle or other door prize going, and those that attent this meet will perhaps get additional entries or something like that.
