…. now comes photoshop…

I expect about 500 – 750 photos will make the cut.

We were up to 2:30am packing and crating… but we didn’t stop playing music till 6:00 so we got a late start…(show closed at 4pm)

Then from about 9 to 1 packing the truck, and after the hour drive home, *I* am eating breakfast. And going thru my 150 emails that I ignored for 3 days.

This year we crated everything… which takes a LOT longer than just wrapping it in bubble wrap or towels or something…. but it did allow us to partake of the services of a bellhop who was in any case quite careful with things (thanks Samir) which sped things up a lot.

Great show, and we learned a lot about controlling room? distortion a very loud volumes and manipulating soundstage height, a lot more about speaker placement for this particular speaker, with a little help from our friends (thanks Dan) and toys (the background noise from I25 traffic was about 60dB – with the windows closed).

Much more later, but I better go help move things up the stairs – it would be great if we can get these speakers (re) setup tonight. 🙂

P.S.

It took from 2:00 to 6:00 to get the show equipment out of the truck and up the stairs (thanks Jim!)

I am telling you all this because maybe you are interested and so that next year we can look at this blog post and align our expectations a little closer with reality in terms of how long all this stuff takes [I always think, and tell Neli, “oh, it’ll just take and hour or so to unload the truck, yada yada yada… “. Oops].

Getting some photos up finally. Been very busy in our room.

A few photos up at :

We got an early date to hear the Nordost ODIN up close and personal… so, maybe we should sleep tonight?
