Darrel Hawthorne at Hawthorne Audio as well. Gary -------------------- In search of a system that doesn't piss me off!

I'm not an audio manufacturer stalker, so I'm not too sure about this, but I believe he's still in the PNW and might make for a face-to-face interview. Brian Cheney - His VMPS designs have been advancing some of the speaker approaches pioneered by Nudell and seem to offer great value. I understand that he's also very communicative with his customers and so may be willing to be interviewed. Hugh Dean of Aspen/AKSA --Hugh was very friendly and helpful to me, a non-customer, in the past and seems like he might make for a good interview as well. - JP -------------------- After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

Also Roger Russell would be an enjoyable and informative interview. -------------------- Sgt Schultz- "I know nuth-ink" " Life is too short to be taken Cirrus"

Noted. Cheney has some of the most clear-headed audio writings I've ever found online, and his shop isn't too far from where I live. VMPS has some pretty exciting stuff coming out next year:

I'd like to someday get to go to his new company, Direct Acoustics, which is located somewhat near me, in weston, Mass. I can't drive, and during the winter, I don't get around well and am sick often, but maybe member Birddog and I could go in the spring or summer. If luck allows. as for Winslow, I'd love to hear his new speaker venture, and the "Silent" speakers he produces. There's a great review of 'em at his website. http://www.directacoustics.com/ -------------------- What you got back home, lil' sister, to play yer fuzzy warbles on? Pitiful, portable picnic players?

Well, it just occurred to me Dr. Edgar´s designs are anything but affordable.

But, hey, I´m sure it would make for an excellent article in A$$A.

What about interviewing some good, but not yet famous musicians? Kelly seems to know of a few Portland area jazz folks who might be worth an interview. Much as we can get caught up with our gear, it is the people behind the music who give us the cause of our passions. Besides, it might be interesting to read what they have to say or it could be a dumb idea. - JP -------------------- After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
