I wanted to get a new thread going for our next San Diego Polkie Gathering so that we can all start getting a date on the calendar well ahead of time.

I'd like to shoot for sometime between mid-October and the week before Thanksgiving which should give me some time to get settled in the new place. More than likely, it will be late October or early November before I'm ready to go.

Start throwing some possible dates at me. I imagine that Saturdays work best for everyone.....they do for me.

    October 23rd is my vote.

    If you can re-arrange your 2-channel setup, then I can bring some Shotgun S2 speaker cables and the stuff I brought last time.

    Thanks to Norm, I picked up a set of Shotgun S3 ICs....burning in right now. :p

    If I'm really industrious, I suppose I could dismantle my setup and bring my Musical Fidelity A5 Integrated Amp.

    And of course, any new CD/SACDs I've picked up until then.

    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.

    I am going to try and accomplish a better setup for the 1C's in relationship to the rack although I'm a bit limited. The 1C's demand a long wall. They are supposed to be at least 3 ' from side walls and 6' apart for best SDA results. I would like to hear some different amps and will try to make that happen somehow. At least the two places I'm thinking of have power on the wall vs. my current setup which happens to be against a garage door.

    Lucky! I've got to save my cash for the move but I did pick up a "necessary piece of equipment" - a quad of TC265i in walls http://www.polkaudio.com/customaudio/tci/index.php?s=tc265i for a great price to use for the side and rear surround channels (in lieu of the FX1000's)

    Is that a SS or tube amp? It's always great to hear what another amp will do for speakers so bring it if you can/want!

    I'll put October 23 down as a potential date. Any dates in November work for you?

    Great! Glad to see we've got a lot of interest. It will definitely be November before I'm ready to host a meet.

    Here are possible dates all on Saturday:
    November 6, 13, or 20

    Please PM me your availability for each of the dates (not just the one you want) unless you are only available for 1 of the dates. I will pick the date that most people can attend.
