February 6th-Chicago-Area Get Together, Anyone Interested?

I'm hoping to make it this year. Unfortunately my father in law is in a bad way health wise. We have been making frequent trips to Pontiac Il. This will be a last minute decision.

Ross, PM sent!

+1 the little dot.

What are we going to have around for amps?

Power amps available:

  • B&K ST-140
  • Kenwood KM106
  • Sumo Polaris
  • McIntosh MA230 (integrated)
  • Super T (integrated)
  • perhaps an older Van Alstine on loan from JohnVF
  • other amps others are bringing
 
I just got back from CES. I think I'll be able to make the get together. If there is any interest I can bring some gear, although probably not as much as last year. I have a new CD player coming very soon.

For those interested, especially vinylphiles, there is a CAS meeting this coming Sunday where I will be doing a demonstration on TT alignment.

Brian,

Whatever you want to bring is fine by me. You outdid yourself last year.

I plan on making the CAS thing on Sunday with John.
 
Robie, I am going to bring my mordaunt-short performance 860s. They are heavy but easy to move and sound pretty good. Kinda rare as well. The prospect of hauling infinity RSIIs was ridiculous since I would have to bring amps too!

If your attending and want to use my VPI record cleaner please PM me else I won't dig it out.

I could bring a Mitsubishi linear tracking turntable if anybody is interested in hearing how good, or bad, one can sound. I was thinking of bringing my VPI but it's simply a beast to move.
 
Are those the ones you made out of a coffee table? Dang, I hate to miss that.

Those are the ones!

Those look cool, Clyde! Can't wait to hear them. What drivers did you use?

I'd be interested in hearing the M156 monoblocks, but since they're probably not-so-light, I'd understand if I don't get to hear them :) Those look really really nice.
