Firstly, I would like to thank Gluecifer for his hospitality, warmth and friendship at our first meet.
Sure, you can talk to someone on a chat room, but to welcome someone into your house is a gracious act.

We spent many hours talking about life, boxes, collecting and all good things in general.

Let me say that I had a sensational night, great food, great company and....my goodness, some very very fine boxes.

So, what were the highlights of his collection and the visit for me???

M90 - Ok, we know this box may be the one to rule them all, but to sit, play and listen to this fine unit for the first time nearly made me cry.
Highs and image that are just so sweet, with a build to die for. All round great bass too.

Big Ben - Loads and loads of nice bass, detailed treble. IMHO a hugely underrated box.

Lasonic 935 - first time I have heard "lasonic bass" gosh, it sounds like it could demolish walls, strong and so effortless. and light to carry too!
Really appreciate that some boxes seem to be designed for certain music types, Public Enemy was rockin on this guy.

Vela disco - Got to admit it, I initially thought this box was too cheesy to be taken seriously....hah. In the flesh it is just so cool, I could never get sick of watching those lights.

VZ-2000 - Amazing, just amazing.

I could go on and on, but these few really hit hard with me. :w00t: :w00t:

So, hopefully the first of many meetings...we so need to get a downunder meet happening.

Thanks Glue, you are a true gentleman and collector of the first order. :thumbsup:

It was an amazing night!!

If you guys haven't hung out with another collector you really haven't experienced the TRUE joy of what our hobby can bring.

It's like on here times 10000%!! Sharing and listening to tunes and hearing that 'special' boombox for the first time with someone like Rich
is just the best. Meeting Rich for the first time was like being reunited with some long lost brother. In about 5 minutes it felt like we'd known eachother for years.

Sharing my radios with someone who actually appreciates them, unlike my friends and family who are almost fed up withjust giving the polite nod, is fantastic fun.
Rich is an amazing dude, he's welcome any time at my place and I really hope to hang out again soon, we've got LOTS more radios to listen to!!
Thanks for coming down, brother, I know you had a loooong day!

A night of hot tunes and rockin company, I hope to experience again soon.

Terry: you'll be here next time too I hope!

Geezum crow, i can only imagine how goddamned amazing the .eu and u.s meets must be!!



Rock On.
 
Awesome dudes. Hey ricksta you need to come up to broadbeach at the end of october where I hope to catch up with Terry.
I know it would be easier said than done but would be cool. :w00t:
