    I don't want to tread on the toes of the AoS show as that now seems to be happening again but perhaps it could be organised more as a large bake off; just booking one of the big rooms on the ground floor. I've been to a few work functions there so I know they have suitable rooms that will accommodate seating, systems and a couple of trade stands . If I can get some more interest it will be pretty easy to arrange it, I think. Was thinking about late May early June when the nights are light and it is a bit warmer. No need for any firm commitments but please, everyone, shout out if you are interested otherwise it will not happen.

    I'll stick up a post in the new Bake-off section.
    Current Lash Up:

    TEAC VRDS 701T > Sony TAE1000ESD > Krell KSA50S > JM Labs Focal Electra 926.

    ou might slip, you might slide, you might
    Stumble and fall by the road side
    But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
    Remember you're walking up to heaven

    Don't let nobody turn you around
    … Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
    Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
    And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

    nonsense

    more the merrier

    what else is there to do besides listening to good hi-fi?

    not knocking anybody but it was supposed to occur last year with almost 12 months notice before the dates were set, nothing transpired so don't hold yer breath Phil

    I think the way forward is to try and arrange mini local gatherings such as the NEBO, the Scots Mafioso and the Yorkshire cable sellers get togethers. Then at some stage those who want an AoS show could try and bring these various tribes together.
