I'm on a mission to make this meeting! ;)
Will not be at the first of the year gathering
Hello all,
I will try to make the next meeting, weather permitting. Also I plan on bringing a couple little integrated monblock single ended pentode amps from an old Akai. This uses 12ax7 in the predriver and 6bq5 in the driver stage. If you have any tubes for rolling, I have heard this can change the sound a lot. Also this would best presented with a high efficiency speaker, all I have is medium efficiency multi- driver types (I will bring some little celestion 2-ways).
Hope to see every one there.
THX,
Dale
PS: Mike I will call you after the holidays if we don't see each other next meeting.
PPS: If anyone would like to start carpooling from the eastern suburbs, let me know!
Well...I Have To Be There, Or Else I'll Never Hear The End Of It ;)-----BILL(BB3)

I'll be stopping by after 4:00 PM. Tom, will you have your soldering iron hot?
Another fun meeting. Eric fired up his Dynaco, and we gave it a good workout.
Pretty respectable performance from that guy.
We also got to hear the pair of TFM-25's in place of the TFM-55 that went home with BB3.
Take care of that case lid, Bill ;)
Thanks to everyone who attended.
I'm glad I was able to attend. It was nice to meet all you guys. I am beginning to understand everybody's Carver compulsion :P
I had a great time! ;) I got the opportunity to meet many of you for the first time. Tom, Bill, Eric, buttnugget, Master Blaster and I'm sure I forgot someone. I had to leave early just as the evening was getting underway. Tom, those eggnog eclaire balls are sinful. I've been lusting over those. Tom, thanks for the touch up on the Rogue power supply leads. The VTA-70 sounded awesome! I'll see you folks in two weeks!
