  1. Not close by and not a good idea after dark, especially with your gear.
  2. Never mind, I found the answer in Naaman's post.
  3. I just got off the telephone with Dan Wright of ModWright Instruments, unfortunately there will be no ModWright products in attendance. I guess sometimes "yes" means "sort of".
  4. Happy Birthday Peter, see you tomorrow.
  5. I agree. I heard DigiPete's 3910 at some minimeets and it was very impressive, and Matt actually performs all the mods you pay for. What a concept!
  6. I spoke to Steve at GNS and found him to be really nice and full of information, a great resource. I only spoke to him about the Opus 21 and the Wadia though so this may not work for you. FYI, Dan at Modwright intends to send some gear to this Saturday's So Cal meet so you might want to check the meet thread here and at the "other place" to get a feel for impressions of his gear. There will be quite a few members there who have good ears so the impressions should be pretty accurate. Present company excluded.
  7. Kyle, the remaining partner at RAM, was supposed to perform mods on a piece of equipment of mine and obviously this was not the case. Wires were singed with very sloppy solder job, original parts were missing that he claimed were not on the gear I sent him. To make matters worse he did not take full responsibility for the screw up and admit that he misled me about who would perform the mods. Instead of offering a full refund for the clown act labor he called a RAM mod, he demanded that I send the unit back to him to take a second crack at it. Yeah, right..... Knowing what I know now, I would say that even if they perform all the work they claim to perform in their mods at the professional level one would expect for the premium they charge, ie no burnt wires or missing parts, you would be way overpaying for the incremental improvements. And yeah you are right, I am still mighty pissed off at them.
  8. Glad to hear it, we wouldn't want to have to summon up the collective wrath of HeadCase unless it was absolutely necessary.
  9. Hava biggah Birthday! Happy Happy Birthday Boomana-
  10. Did he buy that codpiece at Aberchrombie and Fitch?
  11. There is nothing quite as disconcerting as sitting in your office looking out the windows and watching black ash rain down around you. The wildfires are about fiftyfive minutes away by freeway but the smoke and ash are really thick out here. Sheesh, wish I didn't have to drive into LA right now.
  12. I can tell you that so far Luxman P-1 is sounding pretty impressive, very impressive. Granted it is fed by the Capitole MKII playing a LFF remaster but I am kind of floored by the music I am experiencing. I will post more details when I have a free moment but I think I should leave the bulk of the impressions for the attendees of the So Cal meet.
  13. \ OK, that covers Frank Cooter's gear but what about the rest of us?
  14. So let's hear (npi) who made up the disappointment list.
  15. I am ashamed for not stating what Boomana has just done; thank you Naaman, you are the man! Be safe so that we can have you stateside and attending meets. Of course without the sidearm. I can't wait to demo the Buffalo. Yippeeee!
  16. Just send $1,000 and Todd will refund what he dosen't need.
  17. Ahhh, and the pacifier is color coordinated too. Congratulation's dad!
  18. Verygood luck anyway Ken. Tell them you need the income to afford the Ch. Petrus.
  19. Better yet, make that picture /\ /\ Tyll's new avitar.
