Coolzo
500+ Head-Fier
Hey gang, we have a confirmed date and location.
Saturday, January 30 from 9 - 4 at the Burton Barr Central Library, 1221 N. Central Avenue, Phoenix.
It will be in meeting rooms A and B, which are located on the first floor and facing west.
Not quite as easy access as Harmon, but the walls to the outside are glass, so the atmosphere
will be more cheery.
EDIT UPDATE: Garage1217 will be providing one of their tube amplifiers, the Project Solstice. This amplifier will be raffled off at the meet! It is mounted in a special aluminum chassis, and is valued at an MSRP of $289.99. Raffle tickets will cost $15 per two tickets. Names are to be drawn at the end of the meet; if the winner is not present, they will be contacted via Head-Fi. All funds will go towards future meets!
And there we have it! Post what gear your bringing, and any other thoughts or questions in this thread. Many thanks to @funch for finding and reserving the meeting space!
So far at this meet there will be:
-a raffle to win a Garage1217 Project Solstice tube amplifier. See the EDIT UPDATE above for details.
*Garage1217 will be bringing their entire line of amplifiers, as well as several headphones, to the meet for all to listen!
-there will NOT be complimentary food this time, unfortuantely. Instead there will be a lunch break, as the surrounding Downtown Phoenix area has many eateries, cafes, and such. Food will, as it turns out, be allowed inside the meeting rooms, or at least meeting room A (@funch, confirm?).
*an aside, sales or any other money transactions are NOT allowed inside the library. If you must buy something, take it to another location, or make other arrangements.
