Jan 2013 Delhi/Gurgaon NCR Audiophile Meet

[corElement]

We do, but no switch over UPS, so gear will have to be turned back on when power return after 5 seconds during power cuts.

 

[corElement]

@corElement, did you check with BBW Distributors if they wanted to showcase/demo Zu Speakers? They might be interested. They are based in New Delhi.

Got no reply back from them.

 

[corElement]

Ok, bad news Snob Shop Onkyo has said they're not interested.

And I haven't been successful in finding a baker/confectionery who's interested in setting up a small stall at the venue for people to buy food from either (Apparently 40 people are too few people)

So I have a simple solution that I think will work for everyone.

- Everyone who comes before 12pm can specify if they want lunch or not at the reception.

- Those who want lunch can select veg or non-veg option and pay upfront for their item.

- We'll place the order at 12 and it'll arrive within 2 hours.


Simple and no fuss.

 

[prash2k01]

[ketansethi1987]

Yes, that is the next thing on the list.

We need 3 5a extension boxes.

Ill bring my DIY subwoofer. Hope it will be fun!

nooo!

I've handpicked gear which people are usually more curious about to know of, and even after elimination we're about 2-3 components too much for the available time. So I suggest no further gear

We're already on the edge of being able to hear what we have so far properly.

 

[tiger0691]

I am a toally newcomer hear as well as Hi-Fi
I wish to listen with you.
How can I join the meet?

 

[avidyarthy]

3 days to go .... so, right time to put this up ...

Anyone staying close to C.R Park and wanting to stay till the programme ends .. so I can grab a lift both ways, with a heavy intgrt amp as the other passenger?

I hate to drive in to 'unknown', 'un-explored' long-distance terrains on a break-down prone vehicle!

You may send pm, if you please.

Good going Core,

Couple of errors in your post above:

You've mixed up the names of Jignesh & Khusrau bringing the Speakers

What about prices of some of the amps/speakers/stands/cables, details of which are missing ???

Do a thorough job

Just nitpicking, don't mind

BTW, hope you have taken responsibility of keeping notes of all gears that will be available for demo. Painstaking job, but worth it for sake of the Forum

Nope. Someone else will have to do it, because my attention will be diverted towards making sure everything moves along smoothly.

Small update!

We are taking to Mr. Siva, the owner and designer of Acoustic Portrait, and trying to see if he can be with us on the session. It s really kind of him to honor the request and considering flying from Bangalore just for us. On our end, It would be really great to get an opportunity to meet him personally!

Also requested for demonstration of two of their flagship and world class products:
1) Thiyaga Transport (Acoustic Portrait)
2) Thiyaga DAC (Acoustic Portrait).

Will be able to confirm this by Friday evening.

Siddharth Gupta & Manu Gupta
We just started out HiFI Journey.
Thanks
