Forum meet up anyone?

[Fran]

That's great Sligolad - thanks for stepping in there.


John - Sligolad is going to bring his jkdac32 so at least you'l have some representation. Interestingly, the version of jplay I have here is 3.0 and I think Sligolad has 3.4, so it will be interesting to see if there are differences between the 2.....

Fran , version 4 is planned to be released sometime this weekend and it is reputed to be a further improvement, it's not out yet but when it is maybe Pearse or myself will be able to bring it too. The developers got a major recommendation from The Absolute Sound magazine, this week end also , see jplay.eu

Thanks to Fran and everyone else! Great meetup! Lovely sound from Frugal Horns as well as the big Quads!

Echo the thoughts from Claus. Really enjoyable day, many thanks to Fran for arranging this and it was great to meet so many people.
Personally I thought the JKDAC was very impressive and as per previous session love the quads.

Hi Fran thanks for the great afternoon really enjoyed it and also for the excellent sound that was in both rooms,also to the guys from the Forum that i meet there it was a pleasure chatting with you guys.Cheers Frank

Well it was great to put a face to so many names, a wonderful afternoon, two dedicated listening rooms and in between music tracks a bit of serious discussion on music!!

For me I thought the laptop as source with JKDAC was very impressive and it was great to see it in action, however I thought the vinyl LP sounded more real. Methinks vinyl still has the edge!! I was commenting to Cybot about how much bigger the vinyl LP sleeve and cover is when compared to CD. I require glasses to read the print on a CD case, but not so on a vinyl cover!! The font is so much bigger etc.

The Frugal Horns were very impressive & for their price range they are a real bargain and will give speakers up to 2K a serious run for their money, no doubt about it.

Special thanks to Fran + family to allow a bunch of hi fi anaoraks in the door!!!!!!!
