    Who want to see some pictures?





    Going to be a show so we'll probably need a decent size room:





    And some loudspeakers. These'll do:




    And these:




    And these:





    Probably need one of those things that plays those big black discs:





    And what about an amplifier?

    some more tomorrow.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Good write up Steve, which pretty much captured the day both in spirit and in the gear we got to hear.

    It was good to see the regulars again, and meet quite a few new people, too. As usual some good music - I always discover something new at these get togethers. I think we ran the gamut of music genres from traditional jazz, jazz fusion, modern jazz, prog., electronica, R&B, 60s/70s rock, reggae and I'm sure several others that I can't remember.

    Oh, btw, Halfway Tree, my moniker on here is an area in Kingston, Jamaica , half way between uptown and downtown, not my last name.

    Great write up Steve I wish I could have made it this time.

    I also read your page about a shrinking world and found it quite moving, recommended reading to others on here. I know what it's like to struggle to be around (some?) people at times.

    Some more pics as promised:

    EAT Phono stage




    Pioneer Integrated with proper level meters. Avalon BT2 preamp sat on top.




    Same Pioneer driving the KEF Model 105- this was a really good combo




    Musical Fidelity A5. This is a really good amp. Best overall sound of the day for me was this with the KEF 105 playing some Black Stone Cherry. Totally nailed it.
