Is that the same room as last year?

Yes, and I will try to set up the day before to check everything. Are you finished with your Continuums?

Would you mind if we brought stuff to sell? I've got some extra HDS tweeters, RS225 woofers, and an Emotiva LMC-1 I need to get out of the house.

Not at all. A couple people have asked about a swap meet and I asked the Minister of Sound if he wanted to bring some turntables over from his shop. Let me know what you want for the HDS before you tell the world.

I'm not going to have the NaO Note II RS dipoles finished by this afternoon and tomorrow. Made a few drastic changes to the side panels (with the help of the original designer) that will help them conform to what I want aesthetically. Acoustically, they should be identical to the originals.

Either way, these change-orders totally wrecked the assembly schedule and the killer humidity delivered a few priming and painting setbacks.

So, anybody want to offer feedback on what I should bring? I have the Pluto-Clones with MiniDSP measured and acoustically very similar to the transfer functions of the analog version, I could bring the Soprano's by Jeff B., or the ER18's by Mark K. Could bring all three I suppose because they are not that big.

Re: Acoustic Development Quatro in Hot Springs, AR July 11, 12, 13

I have heard and seen the Plutos but I have not heard the Sopranos or the ER18's. Would you mind bringing them? I have a pair of Dave Thomas' Tangeo's but in a ported version, a pair of the Watt Clones and a pair of Dennis Murphy's Usher 2-ways I will bring. Nathan is bringing his Usher 7" and HDS tweet and asked me to bring the Usher 2-ways to Texas last time to compare but I ran out of room. I was hoping to have the crossovers to complete the Peerless/Carver 5" three ways, which were a big hit in Texas, but the crossovers aren't here so I know disappointment too. I am sure it will be a good time.

Hi Bill,

Before getting into what a great time I had at the event, I left my Sony CD player remote control behind. If anybody happens to find it, could you please send it to me? i'll be happy to reimburse you for postage.

OK, what a blast. As usual, I had a whopping good time and learned far more from you guys than I could possibly digest. Could not temper my enthusiasm for Bob's little Alpair-equipped speaker. If I don't die first, I'll have a pair of those up and running before next year's meet.

Thanks again for the hospitality and all the patience in answering my amateurish questions.
