JKent Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Heading out soon to the AK gathering in Peekskill NY. Hope some other CSP guys (besides Glenn, the organizer) will be there! -Kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 I showed my NOT AR-11s and NOT Small Advents, the turnout was not great and not many buyers: I received many positive comments about the NOT Small Advents, seems every person who heard them loved them. http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/not-ar-11-speaker.837616/ http://audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/not-small-advents.837536/#post-11963954 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GD70 Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 We had 26 that attended. There were 8 or 9 that ended up not being able to make it. Seems most are more interested in demoing gear, and talking audio, than buying at this point. My impression is we're all pretty saturated with gear, I know I am. This was the 2nd gathering, and it seemed everyone had a good time, liked the space and location, and will grow over time. For the next Lodge gathering, I'll post it on CSP as well.

Thanks for arranging that, Glenn. It was good to put names and faces together. And your ebony veneer job on those JVC separates was beautiful! For the record, you don't look that much like Jerome Howard (aka Curly) Kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aadams Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Original replacement mids and tweeters are getting either scarce and/or expensive and this is a way around the issue. 17 hours ago, Pete B said: I showed my NOT AR-11s In your opinion how do they compare with the originals or other 12 inch ARs?

Pete B Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 I had planned to keep one stock and one with my mid/tweeter replacement, but only had time to recap the one speaker so I've not yet done an A/B compare. We listened the night before the show and I was rather shocked by how good they sound - more to come. The mid is hidden behind that porous dust cap to hide the identity.

Glenn I'd suggest that you run a poll where people can reply with will attend or maybe so that we can decide if it is worth hauling gear out or not. I'd more likely attend with 50+ positives in the poll. I suggest that you notify the surrounding audio clubs, CAS, NJ, NY and ask that they reply to the poll so we have a head count.

Glenn Also, since there is no AC there I'd suggest late October or November next time because it was quite warm there, especially hauling gear around.

Bill Hi Bill, Life does that sometimes! Hopefully next time, and since you're so close, we should meet at my place for a listening session at some point, and vice versa.
