OK, this thread is getting long. For newcomers, here's the lowdown:

Vintage Audio Meet and Greet, Gear listening/audition, swap n shop
Sunday, December 9, 2012. Starting time: Some folks can only come early, so we will be there starting at 10:00. From what I'm hearing most folks plan on showing up around noon.

Location:
HIONFI
Shoppingtown Mall - Located next to Sears
3649 Erie Blvd
Dewitt, New York 13214
Phone 315.396.5311
Email: vintagestereo@hionfi.com
DIRECT ENTRANCE IS AROUND BACK. Map will be posted soon.

…and about our host, it’s probably best just to quote AK member 12ax7 from his message earlier in this thread:
“hionfi is going to close his retail store... in a mall... that sells the very gear you guys are bringing to swap/sell... for six hours... and pay his tech... on a Sunday... two weeks before Christmas... That's a hell of a commitment guys.”

He’s also providing food and other fun stuff.

If you can make it, please PM me so I can add you to the list above. (12ax7, can ya make it?)
Also give me a shout if you have any questions.

UpState guys get your map!

I wonder if we can get together a convoy heading west on Sunday morning? I'm fortunate that I know my way around Syracuse, and even had the chance to enjoy a visit to your store back in July. :thmbsp:

Weather Forecast for Dec 9: 42°, 20% chance of rain.

(12ax7, can ya make it?)

How about a firm maybe? I've been kind of banging my head against the wall since the date was announced knowing that I have a prior commitment but I can probably break away for a while. I'd love to meet you guys, the only one I've briefly met is AlleyKat at a yard/estate sale.

Would anyone mind if crashed the party for an hour or so around noon? Don't include me in the refreshments head count (I no longer drink and drive anyway). My stuff is mostly turntables, from BPC (cheap, real cheap) to holy grail. There are a couple of tube thingies too.

Did someone mention McIntosh pens?

My turntable lust never goes away. Just got my Lenco L75 yesterday, heh heh.
I hope you can come, for an hour would be great!

Ghasp! My accidental dual postings killed the thread!

I noticed the lack of new posts too. Maybe everyone is getting their gear ready. I'll wait 'til the last minute like I always do.

The BT thread picked up today.

Big thanks to our hosts at Hionfi!! Had a great time, met some cool people, and heard & saw lots of sweet gear. There was a group photo, hopefully it will get uploaded. Here's a few shots of some gear.
