Lots of venders this year. I am going to be down there at that time. Next year I hope to have a venders table setup there. If you guys are going to be around I know a few of us are going. Lets meet up Georgia Polkies.
Cheers
Ben
Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
Thanks
Ben

    McIntosh
    Oppo
    JL Audio

    I'm sure that once I get there, I'll behave like an uncontrollable kid in a candy store.

    I had a pretty good time. Hardly any of the music rigs had subs.
    Most of the pictures I have are crappy phone photo's, but I may post a few anyway.

    Here are the 3 major things I learned:
    1. Thank God I am not an audiophile nor have any desire to be (No disrespect to anybody)
    2. Set-up and room placement of gear and speakers = HUGE effect on sound...more than I previously imagined
    3. My humble rigs ain't all that bad

    Anybody else want to share their thoughts?

    4. Most the rooms ran the audio too loud!
    5. Some show vendors are really nice guys! Like Tyler Audio (even if he does like antiques :biggrin: ).
    6. Great sound in few rooms. Some bad sound in a few too!
    7. A lotta folks missed out on a good time.
    8. You have 'ta hope they do Atlanta again and next time to be able to get there to do 3 days at the show!

    A so called science type proudly says... "I do realize that I would fool myself all the time, about listening conclusions and many other observations, if I did listen before buying. That’s why I don’t, I bought all of my current gear based on technical parameters alone, such as specs and measurements."

    More amazing Internet Science Pink Panther wisdom..."My DAC has since been upgraded from Mark Levinson to Topping."
