Sorry Ray, The mind is going fast. I'm just hoping I can still find your last email. I gotta remember to delete your work email address from my address book, or some stranger at Xerox will be reading my pithy musings.

Happy Retardation, Ray!

Now you have time to drive across the continent and meet us all.

Now there's an idea for a retired fellow.
Rent a van, buy every major Axiom product.
Drive across the country meeting fellow Axiomites and providing in home comparisons of any Axiom product that any of us ever wondered about.

Hmm, come to think of it, maybe Amie could send one of the factory kids on a joy ride...


List of things to bring:
  • A/B/X switching unit with SPL controls
  • AVR (one Denon and one H/K)
  • One separate amp of quality (say like the Axiom used Brystons for comparison)
  • 2 CDPs (a 1990's Sony and a 2007 Lexicon, again for sh[ts and giggles comparison)
  • Alan Lofft tied up in the rear
  • Case of beer and 4 bottles of wine from a local brewery/vineyard from every previous state/province travelled
  • Two sets of cables (garden variety and some stupidly expensive Nordost)
  • One pair of M80s, M60s, M50s, M3s, M22s, M2s, and 2 each of the EP500s and EP600s all in various new wood finishes for display, plus a show of the new in-walls and outdoors
  • A prototype of the new A4000-A5-8.1-07 amp
  • pmbuko tied up in the rear next to alan

Chess, I nominate you for "Best Idea Ever."



Ray, can you swing by my place first?

That is such a great idea! A mobile demo room. I'd love to have a job like that.

How about instead of a van, this person could borrow Ian's jet? Would be a great reason to finally purchase the thing, eh?

Chess - great idea. I may be confused, but I didn't see anuything in the list about the funding required. Did I just miss it?

Funny how peter never balked at the tied up part but was rather focused on getting a jet ride.
Ray, clearly i would expect the cost of such an event to come solely out of the pocket of Bren. I thought that was clear.
