It's amazing how this audio gear seems to grow when it's time to move it, isn't it?!!

I just got back from inspecting the enclosures, and the workmanship is unacceptable both cosmetically and (more important) structurally. I can fix some of the structural problems but would still end up with an enclosure that I'd be embarassed to show with. While I do have another model I could show, I've decided to discontinue that model because I think I can do better. So Lori and I will not be attending the GPAF this year after all. It's too far to drive and too much cost to justify would turn into a non-business vacation. I hope ya'll understand.

I'll miss seeing you Norris, Wayne, Akhilesh, Bill, Bob, Jim, Fred, and the rest of the Round Table crew.

Duke,

Oh Nooooooooo!!!!!!

That is a great big bummer.

Well, there is always next year.

Diana and I were looking forward to seeing you and Lori.

Keep up the good works, we need people like you and your wife Lori.

Take care

Norris and Diana Wilson

Duke,

Too bad that you can not make it. I was going to ask you when you start writing a book on speakers. You could start with your excellent replies on various forums and flesh it out.

Well I didn't know I was being shot at but... it's nice to be missed!

Lori and I are both bummed, but in the 'biz you gotta put your best foot forward. I'd have had to do an apologetic song and dance for everyone who came in the room, and that's not the way to make a good first impression.

Hi Akhilesh,

I was looking forward to seeing you too, and to hearing YOUR speakers! Next year I'll have all the bugs long since ironed out and will glady show off my babies.
