whew!!! what a blast i had, from the moment i walked into the wingate with my buddy greg the hospitality and music never stopped. baker greets me with a cart of beer and before i can take off my jacket a group of us are in his room listening to his jbl's with his $8.00 amp. the best sound i've heard for under a grand. anyway's mike's a bit tired so we unload the pi's from my truck and continue on till 3 in the morning in my room. hey, you chicago horn guy's are cool and welcome anytime. oh, sorry for waking you up at 3am mike, but we ran out of beer. after a good but short sleep we set up the pi's the in the theatre and boy was i impressed. wayne, you'll be getting e-mails for plans as many visitor's commented on the lush sound your puppies displayed, in fact many comment's i received were that they were one of the best sounding speakers at the show. i'll tell you, money does not guarantee good sound, which was evident in many rooms. i won't name rooms but let's just say "sputnik". tubes definitely ruled and it was fun swapping amp's in the theater. best looking horns go to bmar and they sound great too. salad bowls were evident and as cool as they look i did not here any performance gains. i've been to many audio shows and this one took the cake, organized by a pro and attended by people with a common goal this show rocked. mike, you gotta do it again. till, you are a character like no other and your stories at dinner kept me chuckling all night. mike, you never stop with your wry sense of humour. bmar, your wife thinks your a freak but hey we all are, and thanks for that 11am beer. it took the edge off. kevin from diy audio, it was a pleasure meeting you and i'm sorry for keeping you up all night. the chicago horn guys are all super people albeit a little eccentric but that's what keeps this going. bruce edgar, hats off to you( or is that hats on). the passion you display is evident in your product. it was a pleasure to meet one of the horn god's. chad, whatever you are ( i'm still trying to figure it out) it was great meeting you. where do you get the energy? hats off to the gang from NorH who made the long journey across the world to be warmly accepted at the show. these are the best small speakers i've heard, also the best looking. i bought 3 pairs ( and i need them like i need another beer) only because 6 pairs wouldn't fit in the truck. i met many more people and want to extend a big thanks to all who attended and made this a success. mike, thanks again for a super job. i took lot's of pictures and once they are scanned i will upload them all. whew! what a blast!cheers, george
