Brrr, Winter New England AK FrankenFest get together - SATURDAY FEBRUARY 28TH

Any chance someone is bringing a tube tester and is willing to check some tubes?

I will be coming, but I'll be coming later, having a morning commitment.

I'll be bringing my KEF 104aBs, but little else, considering that I won't be there for the full day.

I attended the last gathering for the first time and had a great time, and will be at this one. Let's hope the weather cooperates!
AudioDon was kind enough to share a listening room with me up stairs and I hope to be able to do the same again.

Happy Holidays guys!

Glenn - sorry to see the Don will not be there until the afternoon - might we consider sharing the quiet room for quiet / somewhat critical listening?

I am planning to bring a flea-watt SET 'Darling' amp (see below) and newly - mounted coaxial open baffle speakers, perhaps a TT and CDP to feed them.

Thanks for considering this. I'd suggest that we make the 5 or so spaces between the street and loading dock all 10 minute max load/unload only spaces. Two of those spaces probably isn't enough but I'm guessing that five will do it. Using the spaces near the street will allow people to come and go more easily too.

Five is way too may. The parking is limited as it is. Reserving five seems excessive. When no one is unloading you have five empty spaces. You may have to wait but two is reasonable.

Is the upstairs room available? I am tempted to bring some stuff to play around with. I am not as educated or versed on tech stuff, but I like to show and tell.

Hey,

If there's room, why not! I'd love to hear that system!

It's time for me to get back into it. It's been too long.
I'd bring a bunch of jazz cds to sell, if anyone is interested...
 
511 km from (350 miles) Montreal i would love to go, how good are the deals and selection usually?
 
This is an informal non-AK sanctioned event that has grown into quite a gathering. Often we'll have upwards of 50 people there with some cycling in and out.

I would say that this gathering is as much about being with like-minded people who enjoy the audio hobby as it is about the gear. That being said, if you're a subscriber, look for the Frankenfest buy/sell thread for what folks are offering. If you express interest in buying an item, you will be able to get it. Often things are sold ahead of time and just swap owners at the fest.

Routinely, someone will only lug stuff there if someone expresses interest in the buy/sell thread, but the last few Frankenfests have had more, and better, gear than I've ever seen before. There's also been quite a bit of good music for sale.
Not only that, there are reasonable hotels nearby.
 
Hey guys.....when I drive down from Maine...

....just don't deflate my tires, okay? I've heard how things like that can happen in Mass.

:smoke:
