Actually, the show was about Neil. There was a show about me and my speakers 2 weeks earlier, and since the speakers and gear was already there, Elite asked if they could use it for Neil's event. Since they already declined to be a Genesis dealer, I let them use it, and we removed the speakers the next day.

Oh. Sorry, I misunderstood the intent of the second show. This was Neil's show and your speakers were just a backdrop for Neil. Got it. My apologies Neal if you are reading this.

He's on holiday in Italy and unlikely to be reading this. He's also a really nice guy and unlikely to be insulted by a simple misunderstanding. I really enjoyed his talk, and also the questions and answers.

The Juniors have moved from San Francisco 15 miles South down to Burlingame. Quite an exercise moving two 400 lb crates upstairs into the high-end demo room of Future Sound. Luckily, the crates barely fit into the handicap lift :D

We hired a couple of strong young backs (Mythic Movers - http://www.yelp.com/biz/mythic-movers-berkeley) because the crates were too tall for most of the doorways.

Some places, the crates only cleared by 1/2-inch!

However, luckily the chaps we hired were audiophiles - and when they found out what they were moving, were totally excited. Unfortunately, they had another job to go to and so weren't able to hang around for the set-up. But - they promised to work hard and be back to Future Sound to spend their hard earned cash. So, if you are needing to move anything in the San Francisco/Oakland area, give Blake and Nicholas a shout. https://www.facebook.com/Mythicmovers

The system was set-up at Future Sound with what they had in their high-end room - mostly oldies but goodies, Levinson power amp, Krell pre-amp, Meridian CD Player. Nevertheless, the sound was remarkably better - showing how important the room was to the overall presentation. When we get better, more up-to-date electronics, it can only get better!
