Wisconsin - Anyone interested?

hehe - most of my asylum posts are probably things like "can somebody help me with this darn C4S voltage reading?" ;-)

yeah, definitely, we should get together. I'm busy this week and weekend, but beyond that we could plan a small meeting to get exp[osed to another system and some different components. It becomes difficult to keep a perspective over where your system is going once you simply blow away your best friend's setup. After that you need some A/B on site testing to get a feel for where the next step has to be taken.

I'm very interested in hearing some electrostats.

How do we go about this? I don't see a way to email you directly here, but you can probably find my email on my web site or reach me via Audiogon. I just don't want to post emails and phone #'s here.

check the http://didnt.doit.wisc.edu/audio/dddac1543/ directory to get an idea for what's next on my web site and what I want to compare with other DACs. the actual web page for it will go up shortly - I just need to sort out the information I accumulated and write up my experience building the thing.

anyway - contact me with an email I can respond to privately and we can get things rolling. Others in the Madison area are welcome to join - I grill some mean beer brats ;-)

There are several of us in Green Bay who have been meeting on a regular basis, sometimes as often as once a week. We just listen to music and swap wives, I mean gear!!! I know most of us would enjoy a road trip, even if it was to Madison. If no one has any objections we'll tag along if anything gets organized.

Let us know what to bring along as far as gear or food and libation.

I placed a notice in Stereophile, and possibly will do the same in TAS that there will be a meeting of the Northeast Wisconsin Audiophile Society on October 9, 2004 in Green Bay.

This is not limited to people from any particular area. It's just more a means of identification. Everyone is invited, welcome, whatever. We have had several get-togethers over that last five months and met several new friends. Even more importantly we had a good time.

Please let me know if you have any interest (or if you don't have any interest but are still planning to attend) and we will plan accordingly. Beverages and snacks are typically provided.

Last Saturday we had someone new drive up from Milwaukee. It was nice to get to know another audiophile, but if I get enough responses from certain areas I can try to coordinate things so people can carpool if they are interested.

Let me know.

I'll try to keep that Saturday open. I'd be driving from Madison and have room for a passenger or two with some gear.

Hey, fellow Wisconsinites-

Just happened by this thread to see what was shaking in WI this fall. Unfortunately, I was out of town in June and missed Nrchy's email. Anyway, I'm fairly new to audiophilia and haven't gotten to hear many different systems yet, so if no one minds a young ragamuffin newbie hanging around in October I will try and keep my schedule clear.

I'd be happy to bring any gear from my system--the JJ243 is rather an enigma in the US and may be of interest; I also have a Furman AR1215 voltage regulator that I can pull out of my recording studio if desired.

Feel free to drop me an email-

Oh, P.S. I'm located in Oshkosh =)
