    Looks like I am in!
    Two big thumbs up! Anyone heading down from Los Angeles is more than welcome to come with me.

    What is your planned time to go and come John?
    I'll chip in on gas or I can drive my 300C It's been there once already.

    Hey John, since you just sold the amp to LefCoast and have been in communication with him, has he mentioned anything about coming down for the GTG?

    Great Left, glad to hear you can make it!

    I was thinking that ordering some pizza's might be the most convenient way to go and we can split the cost between us. All we'd need to do then is assign some duties for snacks/side dishes if desired, drinks, paper plates and cups.

    I have invited 1 friend but have not heard back so I am guessing just me. LeftCoast is also interested though he is down closer.

    Do you have an idea on time, I am fairly open.

    We should probably make a decision on food before the week is out. My vote is for ordering in some Pizza's around lunch. Is there anyone who wants to bring something specific?

    I picked up some frozen "Spicy Orange Chicken wings at Costco" They are frozen, so hopefully we can pop them in the oven when we order the Pizzas if you don't mind Doug.

    Actually, I want both but the coin just isn't available. What are you asking for the SC-07?

    Absolutely! Mark tells me that the grease from spicy chicken wings acts as a protective seal on the new LSiM cabinets. :biggrin:

    Guys,
    It was great having you down yesterday! Good to see you again Jeff and pleasuring meeting you Jaime and John. I hope the trip down was worth it. I certainly learned a lot more about the LSiM's since we were able to swap out gear and change rooms with them. I also enjoyed getting to crank up the SRT's again with David Gilmour.

    Here are some pics from the gathering. Seems there was a strange reflection on the LSiM's in one of the shots. In the group photo, names from left to right: NooshinJohn, dpowell, civilian, LeftCoast:

    Guys,
    If you're still subscribed to this, thought you might like to know what the issue was with the right surround channel when we were listening to PFDSOTM SACD in 5.1 mode. I unplugged that speaker from the amp and plugged it into the right stereo front channel to see if it was the speaker or the amp. Ends up, the speaker is fine but apparentely that channel on the amp has died. :(
