Less brownies this year Charlie.
I loved them,and thank your lady for them.
But I'm still trying to work off the tonnage.

I've got midwest area one offs just about every weekend the next two months. If the timing and locations work out I'd be more than happy to make a promoter's jaw drop and throw you all on the list to come hang at a show that night.

 Dave... if he owns the Venue, he may not care too much, he'd  make it up in drinks in no time.

One day is a short amount of time.

Monitors:
The monitor "shootout" was one of the most informative parts of the day.
I sold my monitors and bought 8 SRX712m's because of what I heard
I also gained respect for Triple 8's in that "shootout"

Mics:
Might want to get a widely used / neutral set of moderately sized speakers and do the same thing with 10-20 mics in a row.  Let people walk across them check 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 and see what they think.
Senn 835, 935, 945, Shure 58 B58 B87, B86, EV PLxxx, Audix OMxxx etc etc etc...

Big vs Small
I'm probably in the minority here.  While I love seeing bigger stuff,  the club sized stuff is what interests to me.  The mini "line arrays" (VRX sized stuff) are as large as anything I would ever consider buying.  Any bigger than that and it's just curiosity (it is fin though)

SMAART / Sys Arch / etc
These are time intensive subjects.
A day just for those subjects could be scheduled on a day before or after.  There isn't time to get into those subjects if much gear gawking/drooling is to happen

I'll come if I can make it no matter how the day is laid out.
Just rambling about what would make it more interesting to me.

I'm getting the shivers just thinking of the look I'd be getting all day if I brought her.

Sure going to try my best to get at least my self out to this one; had some family issues come up last year that prevented my attendance but those are long past and I'm really excited to meet my midwest counterparts.

I've got Orbit Shifters now. Love to hear them next to SRX728's (I'll bet I'm not the only one) Anyone got TH115's/TH118's?

Got TH115's (4 ohm version), newly re-speakered, can bring 'em if I can make the meet (anything looks good except the week of 1/15/11).  My system is topped with JTR Triple 8's; it's a great rig for small to medium size rooms and probably sounds a lot like your Orbit Shifter/T8 combo.  I wouldn't mind seeing if we could round up a Danley SM60-F (2-8" and a 5" coaxial in a point-source horn) to go up top, for a brand-matched system.

List Started.
I like the ideas I hear so far.
Im working on the same venue (if thats cool with everyone) so that will help me decide the date.  Im thinking a Sunday.  Most people are off on Sundays I think.

Ill keep you guys posted.

I'd vote for tuesday, maybe thats just me?
