Mid Atlantic meet

[castlesteve]

Hey it's about time for another mid Atlantic meet. We seem to have let it slip a little so I am seeing if there is any interest in a get together to " run what you brung " I am working on speakers as usual and have a new digital class d amp.
  So who wants to come and show off their toys?

I am in Faralya, Turkey right now walking some of the Lycean Way. I get back on May 6 so any date after that is fine with me. I will bring down the cat vomit special 6e5p / 6c33.

If I can fit them in I will try to bring my bi-amp version of Roscoe's speakers.

By the way, Turkey is great and the people are very friendly.

I've got a BeePre and a Bottlehead DAC I could bring.

Oh, and does anybody have a 300B amp of any sort?  I've got some 300Bs that didn't seem to work in the BeePre, even though they're brand new.  So I'd like to test them in some other amp.

 

[RayP]

No 300b amp but I would like to hear the DAC.

Hi everyone,

Any idea what state this might be in?  It would be cool to meet some other bottleheaders in the northeast

Dave

 

[RayP]

Sterling, Virginia. Not too far from Dulles airport.

Contact Steve for directions.

Ray

 

[aragorn723]

Nice, only about 4 hours from here!  So what do people usually do at these, bring their equipment and listen to music on different gear?  Any idea on a timeframe?

Dave

 

[RayP]

Take a look at
bottlenecksaudio.blogspot.com
for blogs of earlier meets.

Steve will decide on a date.

Where are you coming from?

Ray

 

[aragorn723]

looks pretty cool.  How did the light bulb tube amp sound?  I'm from North Jersey, near NYC. 

Dave

 

[castlesteve]

The light bulb amp sounded very good when it was working. Ray makes some excellent sounding and scary looking amps. He will invariably bring something really interesting with him to these meets.

 

[RayP]

Steve, how about you pick a date after May 6 that we can put on our calendars.

Ray

 

[castlesteve]

Let's go for May 30/31 whichever day is most convenient for everyone. I can do either day.

 

[aragorn723]

Should be a fun time!  The wife is having a baby right around there, so i'll be in the hospital with her  :  Enjoy!

 

[castlesteve]

I suspect that you will be having the fun! Best of luck and congratulations.

 

[aragorn723]

Thanks  8)

 

[RayP]

How about we go with Saturday May 30.

ray

 

[castlesteve]

That will work for me.

 

[davechen]

Unfortunately I can't make May 30th, but I look forward to the next meet.

 

[RayP]

Dave, could you make the 31st on the Sunday? I think we would all like to hear the DAC.

ray

 

[davechen]

Yes, I should be able to make Sunday, the 31st.  Pending the permission of she who must be obeyed, of course.
