Runners, riders, kit and wit.
What a fabulous day. Great company, excellent kit, superb craic (is that spelt correctly?.....it is now).
OK onto the photos. Can't necessarily put details to them all () so will number them and folks can add as they like.
Number 1. The star, the heroic scale, the impact, the clarity, oh and did I mention the scale.
Ali's piddling little OBs ......ahem.
2. The front end
3. The towers of power
4. The admiring crowd
5. JBLs lovingly restored by ...
6. Goodmans Mezzo 3 with Celestion HF1300 tweeters, a bit of a hit
7. Justins white heavyweights
8. The fancy waterfall taps in the rest room* where we went for lunch. (* translation - the bog)
9. A very tidy system at the other end of the room (memory has gone ...sorry)
10. ....with a huge amplifier on the floor
11. Very nice sounding Quad bookshelf speakers
12. A replacement for number 10, a Proton amp
13. VU VU VU VU VU , ok I'll stop it now
14. More JBLs. Good punch with these
15.
16. ESL57s raised up off the floor. Cleaner bass with the greater space behind them (couldn't find hooks in the ceiling )
17. Now don't laugh, it's the dancing partners
18. Martins Akai's being used properly on stands (at last )
19. Project Box phono in use in Ali's system
20. The business end, and what an end
21. R2R loveliness
22. Tape
23. ....and finally (put her down Steve, you don't know where she has been)
Let's do it again, an overwhelming success, thanks Martin for your sterling efforts

Reason: craic
I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan
