I might be there next year. Just wasn’t in the cards this time.
Backert Labs will be there so give Andy some support!
That is a room I will go to!

I've always thought the goal of high-end audio was not to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Turn that darn music down' but to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Tell your friends to go home and you can practice later this week'.
Also, we will not be going to dinner afterward. Too expensive and we will already have a long drive home.

Change in plans, we have family here this weekend and we can't go. I was really looking forward to going. Maybe next year.

"Electronic music is human sound adapting to indulge technology, and for some, it feels like the signature sound of energy. New and abstract sounds over hypnotic rhythms can conjure vast soundscapes for escape, pleasure, and transcendence."
Well my cousin does not want to go look at what she calls "stupid speakers" all day long. Since they are only here for 3 days, mom won't let us go. So, we will have to plan a bit better next year.

Look at? I think she might be doing it wrong. You're supposed to close your eyes and listen to speakers, not look at them.

Right, but but she thinks I am just going to go and stare at them in awe(which probably is not totally wrong, lol). She doesn't really think about it that way.

Yep, give Andy and the boys some support from Backert Labs. Introduce yourself to Andy if he's there, tell him I said hello too. Great bunch of guys down at BL.
Tell him we may be ready for another demo round too if he's up for it.

If anyone makes it to the MBL room could you post a pic and your impressions of their omni directional sound?
And any chance of checking out Border Pateol Audio's DACs. If so could you ask them if they are prior Border Patrol Agents? Can't find much info on them.
Any of you guys meet up at this show ? Where's the pics man ? Nobody gave Micah a wet willy ?
Plans changed and I didn't make it. Wish I could've, even if I'd gotten a wet willy.
