« on: February 03, 2016, 12:48:19 AM »
Anyone every have one?

I am on AVSforum quite a bit and found a post where someone in Pittsburgh was trying to organize one.

Since I have been on this forum, I have lived East, then North, then South, then North, and now East again.  And I STILL get to these get togethers.  Get on my level, gentlemen!  Seriously though, north is the best (no tunnels!).  I miss it dearly.

For us more countrified folk, that Bridgeville/Upper St. Clair sorta area is such a PIA to get to, though technically fairly close.
preamp: BAT VK-5
amp: Altec 944sa
DAC:  Bel Canto 2.5
CDP: Pioneer Elite DV-47a
Intel NUC server / iFi micro iUSB3.0 / Roon
Spendor FL9

I've also lived east, north and now the south. Living down here has a learning curve traffic wise, but of the three I like it best. When I worked in town the north was the easiest commute.

I believe there is a record show in Bridgeville on the 5th, maybe that makes it easier for you north and east enders.

I'm going to mark the get together on the calendar, I'm only about 7 minutes from south hills village.

only know of the Pitts Record Convention on Nov 19th in Bridgeville
a bunch of nice sounding stuff. Nice that I'm finally able to actually listen to file music for the first time...

I didn't say I wouldn't attend, just that I wish I could host.

You and me both.  I don't even have room for my incoming speakers, let alone having a ton of people coming to check them out.  I'll have to borrow some folding chairs and move my whole place around to set it up appropriately haha.

The last one I had back in March only had 10-12 people.  That is probably the max I can accommodate and still be able to move around.

BJ

I have plenty of room in my living room to "store" your new speakers for you. I'll even break them in for you!
