Had a little get together today

I had a few guys over to try some new gear and mix things around with several different speakers. I was amazed that my large horn speakers would rock with the little 6DN7 amp and it's 1 1/2 watts per channel. Then the Line Magnetics would drive anything.

This was an impromptu happening. One guy was coming over. Then a couple more stopped by. So I started pulling out gear and we made an afternoon of it.And where was my invite?
Besides you have an open invitation for any time. I should have my new Antique Sound Labs 845 MKII amps in about a week. Then we can do a comparison to yours. See you at LSAF.

No need to sleep on the floor. We do have a guest room. If more show up, we have a queen size inflatable and three couches.

I know for sure it was good time spent. Would like to make it back to your place this summer too. Last time I was there, I was overwhelmed with your knowledge and setup(s). Slowly but surely, I have grown. I think I could hang with you through your second setup this time. I call shotgun for the guest room, Skip and the rest are fillers. Haha. I kid.

The date will be set by Skip for when his schedule permits.

Luther's setup and lake? This is definitely more than a two night getaway. My wife would love the fishing. Let's make this happen.
