Open invite

@kingharold that is a really cool story! 

Several years ago I invited a fellow horn enthusiast I met on another audio forum to visit and hear my system.  I didn't expect him to accept since he lived in the Netherlands.  About a year later he told me he, his wife and son were visiting the USA to attend several NASCAR races.  This really surprised me because he was a quite sophisticated European who owned a software company.  At any rate I welcomed them.  My wife and I enjoyed their company so much they ended up staying most of a week before they departed for Charlotte to catch another NASCAR  race.

Ditto!

Great of @johnah5 on this invitation extending thread!

I am also open to this for anyone living in or visiting the Boston MA area.

Nothing too exotic here but have some interesting components I like to rotate (B&W 801 Matrix S2s, Magnepan LRS, LS50s, Rogers LS/35As circa early 1970s, Ologe 5s, Harbeth SHL5+40s, and a recently completed build of PureAudioProject Trio15 Coax 10 open baffles)

A pair of Ampzilla 2000 2nd editions and a pair of Bryston B7s share rotation time with an old but modded Jolida SJ 502A and a class A Forte SS.

New to vinyl here with a Rega RP8 and a 40+ year old heavily modded Rega P3.

Two systems in one lengthy room share an AudioKinesis Swarm DBA (distributed bass array) subwoofer setup via a Schiit SYS.

Most of this gear (the older stuff) was given to me from my audiophile Uncle a few years ago when he moved to assisted living.

It was and still is such a joy to me experiencing, learning about, and enjoying the different combination of components.

Why not share the love?

cool idea

@ozzy62 

I agree and would be open to that as well

How far are you from Teajay?

Teajay does do open invite as well.Maybe 3 years ago , My friend and I went to visit Teajay to listen to the Tekton ps 12, we both end up owning them.Its more than an hour drive from Illinois.We have a great time.

Im in Scottsdale, Az if anyone is interested

I'm with Ozzy.  I'm in L.A.  The problem with this is, the mods might take this thread down (and subsequent others) because the OP provided an email address.  But I love the idea. 

It would be a good idea to have a standing thread for all forum members who are open to having others over to listen. It would consist of exactly what you have posted above. Location, description of system, and contact info. I am always up for other like minded audio nerds to drop by.  I know that many people are particular about their privacy, but I'm sure there are a few here that would participate.
