    I was there that day. I'll never forget it. I was the one taking the picture.

    Do you think the C37 on the lens was such a good idea?

    Any lift shares with those inhabiting the local area will be welcome...

    I think I'll come along too for fun. :)

    Steve - you have PM..

    Julian - share a car if you want?

    NB
    If anyone else is driving, watch out.. at the one I went to at the Renaissance hotel 2 years ago, if you said you were going for the hifi show, the hotel charged you 3 x the price for parking!!!!!

    Id reccomend parking at another hotel, or pub, or mcdonalds nearby.. whatever you can find really... just in case. It was about a tenner they charged me.

    See you all there.

    Chris

    oh yeah, I wanna go on Sat.

    I'd very much like to come, I don't see any reason why I won't be there, so I'll send my fiver off later in the week. I'll go on whatever day most people seem to be attending on - be good to meet everyone.

    Oh, I suppose as so many of you are going along I will show up too. I am a bit showed out TBH, so its purely for the social (and to annoy WM).

    As it's really easy from where I live, I might go by train this time so that I can have a few bevvies and not bother about the ridiculous parking costs.

    List of Exhibitors

    The show organizers have put up a list of exhibitors on their web site (although you usually get one or two additional late bookers).
    List of Exhibitors for the Heathrow High Fidelity Show - April 3rd and 4th.

    "Privileged tickets" (cheaper) are still available to anyone who sends me an S.A.E. Details are on my web site.

    I haven't yet received the tickets, although I'm expecting them any day. So don't panic if you're waiting for them.

    See you there guys.

    We're taking a slightly different approach this time.

    At the Bristol Show, we used matching amplifiers from Steinhart Audio for the full-range and bass speakers. It was quite a good compromise but this time we're going for a Border Patrol P20 to give some real mid-band magic to the Nonsuch 4s :music: and letting Tone loose with his Bel Canto on the Little Awesomes. :drum:

    I'm looking forward to hearing what we'll get.

    For the rest of the line up. :band:

    Just to add, A special Trichord Delphini with added Oh Yes!! will be gracing the stand as well, thought I'll give the Wadia a little pep up since the last show.
    Will be a more relaxed and open affair than Bristol I feel. Wm

    How much power is the P20 steve? is it single ended?

    I bet it sounds pretty awesome, knowing BP stuff.
