HTRookie was in town to pick up some new SDA SRS's and gave me a call. I was able to head over with him and help pick them up (literally) and then we had a quick stop by my place for some LSi/SVS listening.

Time went pretty quick, but it was great meeting him and talking about our setups and what we have planned. I hope to get a chance to check out his system sometime with his new speaks.

Just wanted to say Club Polk has some excellent members and I encourage you all to meet them if and when the opportunity presents itself.

    Yep, Ricardo is a cool dude. He's on his way over here to drop off his Dared SL-2000 tubed pre for me to compare to the Dodd. He's going to leave it with me for a week, then next Friday he's coming back over to spend some time over at my house so we can shoot the **** and get our SDA groove on. :D

    Will get you down here sooner or later; We're off to Texas next week for Thanksgiving, but the next party Bev & I throw, and it will be before Christmas, I'll email you an invite & map. It's actually about 1.5 hr drive from Tucson (roughly 85 miles). One requirement though, you must bring some music along....

    I'll keep you posted...
