Looks like a nice gathering. Some very fine equipment for show and sale and I'll bet some very nice tunes as well. I'm glad you guys got to get together. Sorry I missed it.

Will:
Thank you very much for organizing the event - it was great fun! Old friends, new friends, old gear, new gear. What could be better?
(Please forgive me while reading the section below as my memory is terrible and I cannot remember all of the attendees' names...)
We were treated to:
Will's recent amp and speaker builds (sweeter in person that here on AK in photographic form, for sure).
Dave from Spokane's nice Sony/NAD/Adcom/Infinity reel-to-reel setup.
Tor's BIG Concept receiver, ADS speakers, and the coolest antenna I have ever seen. After attending three of the Pacific Northwest AK events and helping to carry gear in from the parking lot I am beginning to wonder if Concept every built a small receiver... Tor's daughter helped him get it all set up!
Derek's nice Rega TT.
A pair of surprisingly nice sounding PVC pipe-housed speakers sourced from Goodwill that originated as a Penn State University audio engineering class project.
Steve (Susurus on AK), as always, brought some sweet Yamaha amps and a pair of beautiful Sony speakers that were pretty darn nice, although I had to duck out before he really had a chance to show them off.
Dick's Big Boxes 'O Vinyl For Sale.
Dave's old gear that needs a new home garage sale.
We had visitors from Vancouver, Washington, Vancouver, B.C. (thanks for coming, John!), not to mention Roger from Ballard (our local tube audio guru - thanks for coming, Roger!).
I survived the day, needing only three Band-Aids and suffering only one dented dust cap.
A great AK day!
Arthur (Tarior) - you were sorely missed!

Here is the last batch.
I forgot to mention it before, but the definite highlight of the event was my never before seen in public EPI 100 drivers mounted in my first home-built cabinet, painted with Benjamin Moore's finest with a fine-nap roller :yes:

Wish I could have made it. To many irons in the fire and big camera glass purchases stressed the financials a bit to much this year. Congrats to Will for getting the event together! :thmbsp:

Nice to meet everybody today. I really enjoyed myself. Those PVC speakers were my $19.99 find at Edmonds GW. They use German 'Axon' drivers. Thanks to Spalls for powering them up. Your EPI's sounded really big! Will, you did a great job organizing this and thanks again for the cords and sci-fi pots. -Rich
