We really had a good time with this GTG. I have to echo Rickster71's sentiment - In three years of doing these NW events, both large and small, every attendee has been a joy to have around and get to know. Our group this year was limited in number, but certainly not limited in knowledge, experience, and enthusiasm. Last year's larger event (with about 50 people) was also a lot of fun, but this time it was a bit easier to engage in conversation for awhile and learn some things from and about our fellow audio enthusiasts.
Many thanks to the sponsors: The speaker manufacturers for offering up their products for our listening enjoyment, The Audioholics Store for providing lunch to all of us, and Audio by Van Alstine for the front-end electronics. Heartfelt thanks to Dennis Murphy for flying coast-to-coast, and providing his test equipment and expertise for the various measurement and switching portions of the event (including before/after effects of the "blind audition" screen - thanks again).
Special thanks to Tomorrow's better half, DJ. She was the official greeter, record-keeper, lunch hostess, clean-up committee president, and animal control officer. You are the best!
Lastly, our driving force for every NW event - Tomorrow (RJ). Organization must be his middle name (it's certainly not mine). Couldn't do these without his efforts. I'm sure he'll start posting as soon as he gets up this morning (it's only noon here).
Great organizer, but not much for stamina.
More to come...
