I'll be there along with my friend Jake. I'll be bringing my HiVi F6/SB29 MTM. I'm fairly happy with it, but would love some more ears and perhaps some crossover suggestions!

So, it's dawned on me that I don't exactly know where Meniscus is anymore. I know roughly, and I was there maybe 6 or so years ago. Is it just the address listed in the phone book?

Hi mark,

Do you have a 2-wheel cart we can use to haul speakers into the building?

Thanks!

Excellent! Thanks Mark.

My plan is to get there early enough on the 4th to be able to unload the Statements II and Finalists so they don't have to spend the night in the car, if that's OK?. My car was broken into in Vegas a couple years ago and I've become really paranoid about leaving valuables in the car overnight.

What time do you close?

Thanks!

Jim

Attention!

The city has decided to do major road repairs on Richmond St - the direct route to our building. The city says there will always be access to the building via the North or South side.

I have attached a map showing alternate routes. Blue arrows are the normal route and Red arrows the alternative. Yellow shows the blockade. As of today, you can skirt around the blockade at Richmond and Turner (East).

I'll post an update on Thurs.
