Mini Bake-off 18th March 2006 1.30pm>

[Papa Lazarou]

The wife will be away for the weekend of 18th March. So i've decided to hold a small Bake-off session at my house in Bletchley, Milton Keynes from 1.30pm onwards.

I can realistically get about 5 or 6 in my living room - feel free to bring any kit along too. So far JonR is confirmed. I can accomodate anyone overnight too if that helps with travelling etc.

If interested please PM me for address/contact details etc.

Thats a deal John. I'll leave Bess at my mum's for the weekend. I think she has a bit of a soft spot for you mate

So far looks like -

Me (obviously)

JonR (confirmed)

Effem (likely)

Bommer (likely)

Looks like John will be bringing his MF kit and hopefully Frank can bring a few goodies too (i'd like to try his Krell transport).

Not a pretty sight I might add :green:

Please do bring your Naim kit along, because as they say, the more ingredients we use the better the stewmight taste :lwink:

 

[JamPal]

Can you pencil me in Phil. I am gagging to hear those Arcs.

Will check dates and get back to you.

Cheers,

I'd like to come to but if you feel overcrowded already Papa no worries. Would bring along the Wadia and Power amps as well this time. I make a great cup of tea by the way

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Thanks for the response chaps - much appreciated.

So to recap we have.....

Me

JonR

Bommer

Effem

Hifiwigwam

AdamK

Duvet

I really do feel we're at our limit now, since my living room is pretty compact. Still the more the merrier they say

. There should be enough seating for4 on the sofa and i have2 beanbags. I'm happy to sit on the floor or stand anyway - so thats sorted then.

Like i said i can accomodate 2 or 3 to stay over if any of you feel like a drink?

Kit wise we seem to have:

Mykit obviously

Bommer's MF CDP and Amps?

Effem's Krell transport and Art Skibos

Duvet's Wadia 861 and Advantage monoblocks

JonR's Various pieces of Naim

That should be more than enough equipment TBH. I'll get some beers/snacks in too.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Duvet, since you'll be bringing your Wadia/Advantage kit i take it you're fishing to see if Wilson Benesch speakers are a good match?

 

[Guest]

;-)That may have crossed my mind but i just love meeting you guys.

Ps the one they callBommer. Don't let him near the coffee

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Cool, i hope you like the Arcs fella. I certainly do, they work well in my room.

Looks like i'll be on coffee duty then

very good:lmao::lmao::lmao:i promise, scouts honour.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

A suggestion from Bommer.....

I have an excellent Indian Restaurant within 5 mins walk from my house - so does anyone fancy getting a rubyin the evening?

 

[Guest]

Will have to come back to you on the Ruby . Don't know how quick i have to be back that day. Also i haven't told her i'm going yet. I'll break that to her while she's spending my money in Ikea this afternoon

 

[JonR]

Curry sounds like a plan :->

And if you really, really want me to bring some Naim gear along, then if you really, really want me to, how about the 252/Scap and 200 power amp, eh?

Would be interested to know what kind of load the Arcs present the 200, if anything.
