    North Toronto Meet 7/26/08 (56k, no way!)

    The “lethal voltages” is a modded Aikido built by looser101. Renato's probably sleeping in as he's on vacation, so I'll answer for him.

    Mississauga/North Toronto meet

    Sounds like if no one steps up and take reins, the default meet location will be downtown Toronto at Jay's new place. Does Jay know that? My only concern with having a venue downtown at Richmond & Spadina would be public parking for anyone driving.

    Mississauga/North Toronto meet

    Been meaning to chime in here. I'm in for another meet in the GTA or possibly south of the border. Just to confirm is this now a general Head-Fi get together or is it a coming out party for Oriel aka Purity Audio as originally suggested?

    Should I Cancel My Q-jays Orders? Help! Head-Fi!!

    I personally advise not canceling and to keep your initial order with Headroom. I understand that it can be difficult waiting, the choice is yours though. The q-JAYS are covered by the manufacturer's 2 year limited warranty. Warranty service in Canada is carried out by Atlantia, the Canadian...

    Ontario Meet #2?

    Malakei, I would also suggest you fill in your Head-Fi user profile if you want to take charge, especially before messaging anyone if you plan on doing so.

    Ontario Meet #2?

    If you're serious and want to organize a meet, I would suggest start with reading the “meeting suggestions” thread, sticky at the top of this forum if you have not already done so. Sounds good? Next, I would suggest you gather the attendance list from the previous Toronto meet and PM members...

    McAlister Audio--who's had recent contact?

    I speak to Peter on a regular basis and can assure anyone that his phone has never been disconnected. In fact, I spoke with him earlier this morning. I will be seeing him tomorrow afternoon and will bring up the issues on AudioCircle if he's not fully aware.

    Yur fav martial arts flicks

    I'm particularly fond of martial arts “revenge” flicks, where the protagonist's family gets wiped out and it becomes his/ her life long mission to seek vengeance. Kudos/ major bonus points if the protagonist learns gongfu from a book and still needs to design & develop a special weapon to defeat...

    Recommend a damn good bike lock. Experience preferred.

    If cost is not an issue, I would highly recommend the “Stocks Lock” (http://www.stocksmfg.on.ca). It's made of stainless steel with integrated flexible cables, allowing the lock to bend away from leveraging or hammering forces. IMHO it's one of the best on the market and I commute in Toronto...

    Dungeons and Dragons

    I have very fond memories of playing Dungeons and Dragons basic 1st edition to AD&D in the 80's. My older brother of 2 years used to run the RPG club in junior high, HS and the club at our public library which usually served as our venue. If I remember correctly “The Keep on the Borderlands”...
