Just up the road from Symonds Yat, one of the loveliest places in the UK. I'm about 60 miles up the road in Bridgend but get up your way a couple of times a year usually.
Have you been to the Butterfly Zoo yet?

I'm not too far away, edge of the Forest of Dean just outside Lydney.
We've just moved here into a major renovation job so couldn't really host anything but would love to come along to any meets

I could host something on a small scale or just hook up sometime.
A pre-amp and/or DAC comparison session would be interesting?
Always good to recommend/listen favourite albums etc. as well.
ps. if you ever need any small size/scale woodwork doing in your renovation I may be able to help.

Hi Barry,
Have just come found your post about a possible bakeoff. I live on the far side of Cardiff which is not too far from you. My hobby is building IPL transmission line speakers. If you do have a meeting and are interested in hearing them I would be happy to bring a pair along.

Hi Richard
Sorry my for delay responding. Thank you for your suggestion.
I did not get much of a response at all from this post but we could try for a 'mini bake-off' or somthing at my house. Gaz (above) might be up for it as well.
It would be great to listen to your IPL Transmission speakers, I have some 1987 Isobariks you could listen to in turn.
Cheers
Barry
