    If it's likely to be early September then I could bring the LX521 "ecosystem." I know a few of you have heard them at NEBO, but there may be some that haven't heard Seigfried Linkwitz's last hurrah.

    I'll bring the analogue x-over so that analogue front ends can be hooked up to them if anyone so desires.

    Gordon.

    Good stuff Gordon, like to hear them again.

    Again thinking about it, I complained that I had taken a fair amount of equipment up with me (2 monoblock amplifiers, a preamp, a tape deck and associated cables) but little of it was used. My mistake - whilst I was away having lunch, my gear was hooked up to Alan's Quad 57s, and by all accounts it all worked well together.
    Thanks Barry, yes they did sound good there, shame they don't work at my place. Still have them though, and will soon be moving my gear to my new wife's place, where she's allowing me to commandeer the loft as my man cave. It's the size of the entire house so a decent space to use- only thing of concern is a low ceiling but I guess I can use some room treatment if it turns out to be an issue.

    In principle I'd be up for it Martin, just depends on the date, festivals and holidays between July/Sept.

    We're looking at first two weeks in September. We have 20 potentials now so I will see what I can book.

    Well it could be worse I suppose.
