Here are my pictures I took at the meet.   I'll type up my full impressions soon, but my personal favorites include: 1. HE60/Liquid Lightning 2 2. Omega 2/ Blue Hawaii 3. SR-009 / Liquid Lightning 2 4. HE 6 / Liquid Glass 5. HD800 / Eddie Current S7 or Liquid Glass   Overall, I...

I have at least 5 extension chords available to bring, but no powerstrips. I don't think I'll bring any gear, as it is my first meet and I'd rather not have to worry about keeping up with gear, and the big Wilson's don't travel very easily.

I am very interested, schedule permitting, in attending.

No list of greatest bassist is complete without Garry Karr. Simply a master.

That clears things up. I thought you might be using the raid 5 for music and all your other digital crap.

Nice build. I like the clean layout of your desk, and the black and wood colors. Have fun ripping those cd's.   One question though, is why did you go for both a raid 1 and a raid 5 setup? Is the raid 5 for just music, or everything but the operating system? If all you have on the raid 1...

Here comes the hate...

"noise attenuation" is the reduction of outside noise. ie: make other sounds quiet.

to bad that the best looking and best sounding components usually mean lots of $$$
