I definitely left out some, there are simply too many equipment on hands to mention. The Tube / Valve craftsman’s Room is jam-packed till 6pm. Picture At The Exhibition
The morning section consists of a static display in the beautiful restaurant. Rocco is the kind gentlemen you want to speak to if you have problem with pronunciation of Italian words. Thanks Rocco for the use of your lovely restaurant, not to mention the wonderful buffet. Errr... can we do it again next year?
Tons of Valve gears. Luckily the restaurant table is tough enough to hold the weight of all this gear.
Rock n’ Roll Afternoon is the time to boogie.
Accuton fresh milk loudspeaker tweaking? No, they were stuffed during the show to reduce the internal volume of the cabinet. Oh, and the sound is very liquid too, really excellent ceramic drivers.
Fostex FE103E in TQWT cabs. These baby do sound sound loud with certain material in the room!
The amplifier is actually the small silver box above the big bronze box which contains 4 Lead-Acid Battery. DC-powered amplifier! Can be used as backup to jump start your car if it refuse to start.
Picture of just some of the visitors, the organizer (the one with the yellow sticker on his polo-shirt) and the D.I.Y'ers, who actually paid for the two rooms. They care not about the money as long as we, the listeners, enjoy the music. Danny, reporting on behalf of the ever-so lazy Steven R. Rochlin, for Enjoy the Music.com™ |
