Real Standup Men Audiogon Members to the Rescue

Faster than a speeding Halcro amplifier, more powerful than a pair of Pass X-1000s, able to leap tall SoundLabs in a single bound!!! . . . . and who, disguised as mikelavigne, mild mannered Sirius III D.J. (and Honda purveyor) fights a never ending battle for harmonic truth, Tenor justice and the American audiophile way!!!! It was a pleasure meeting you finally Mike!! You and Jonathan have not only been two of the most helpful people around, but you guys are just plain fun to be around. Way to go buddy, my hat's off to you and Dale for rescuing the audio damsels in distress - class acts all the way!!

Jonathan (the often imitated and never duplicted cruise director and phone conferencing wizard), Mike (a/k/a "Superaudiophile), Bills (both Eichengrun [pass the Armegnac please] and Parrish), Paul (Bill's cool son), Mark (you be da way kewl doctor - Noah Wyle eat yer heart out), Francois, Robert, Stephan and Michelle (the swarthy Tenor clan), Patrick (United We Stand), Andy and Mike (the laid back geniuses of the Rockport Empire - "Can I hear some Kenny G?" NOT!), thanks a ton for making CES so darn much fun (in spite of the bug that invaded my sickly body!)

I hope you all made it home safe and healthy!!

PS - those new Tenors are as physically beautiful as the 75 watters are musically beautiful!!!!

If you have ever met Jonathan, you can easily understand why Michael and Dale stepped up. You do get the feeling that once you have dealt with him you do become part of the family. Nice thread Frank.

Good going to Mike and Dale! It says quite a bit when you ship your 20K amplifier across the country to help out a friend.

I have to note Jonathan would do the same for his friends too. I've seen him go out of his way to help others on many occasions.

Cyrus buddy, I am so sorry I forgot to mention you in my last thread - remnants of this illness I am afraid (no, not audio nervosa, but the nasty sinus infection and bronchitis that has me home in bed - but the Kharmas arriving tomorrow will help ameliorate the pain!)!! It was great meeting you as well and I hope you had as good of time as I did. I will talk atcha soon my friend!!

Having a senior (no, not Mark) moment in Michigan!!

before Dale and I are actually canonized saints i would point out that our activities are typical of most serious audiophiles that i know. as a group, audiophiles are mostly helpful, sharing people that like to support others of their ilk. there are many on this site that have been similarly quick to aid one another with loaned gear and friendly advice.

i do feel a special connection with Jonathan's Rat-Pack Brotherhood......the friendships and shared audio experiences have been priceless to me and if i go a little out of my way to help.....it is definitely worth it.

Frank, i seem to have lost my cape.....did i leave it with you?.....i tried leaping over my Exquisites.....oooouuuccchhh!!!
