Is WHO won the neat raffle prizes? There was some nice stuff there

Updates?

Been checking my cell phone hourly...nothing.:tears:

I really, really wanted that CD player.

I didn't make it.

What were all of the items?

Did Bigmacc wear a thong this year?

No, but Glenn's RonJon shirt was far more effective :D

Kegger won the SACD player. Like so many, I really wanted that player also.

Dmax99 won the Tyler Audio Speakers. Beautiful pair of speakers. And heavy. We barely fit them in my car. Thank God we didn't have far to drive because David was pretty uncomfortable in the passenger seat.

I forgot who won the Dynakit tube amp. Had a few tickets in the bucket for that one also.

Cheers

I didn't win any prizes but it sure was nice meeting everyone, the hotel loved our group??? :scratch2:

Had to be more than the wedding group that was there.....hotel security was chasing them out of the halls till 2 am. I think we were actually quite well behaved.

HeHeHe....Very cool speakers....

Got any pics, dmax?

Hey Ernie,

Getting off track a bit, what was the attendance in numbers and how many AKers attended? And whould you know the numbers from the previous Fests? Just curious.

Thanks!

More stuff came in, during the Fest, and my computer file never got updated.

Major props to Grumpy for a fantastic job. (Please excuse the lack of formatting, as Excel doesn't import well into vB.)

Please support the generous donors who gave to our Fest.

Woah... that's a lot of goodies!

Hat's off to the donors and sponsors!

onepixel, Grumpy has the numbers, or will. I can only tell you that the place was very very busy, and the vendors were ecstatic with the traffic.

Woah... that's a lot of goodies!

Yep, many thousands of dollars. The Kubala-Sosna cables were over $400, alone.

Lauritsen Akustics gave us a pair of Kimber speaker cables, 10 or 12 ft, I forget, which went to reyneman, and Madisound donated a Class D 2.1ch amplifier, which was won by Billfort.:banana:

Billfort with a class-D amp...my head may explode.

But then it might just be perfect for that built-in system I was going to put in the den where space is a big issue and tubes just won't cut it. Hell, I may get comfortable with this new solid-state stuff yet.

Some fantastic prizes this year and it was nice to have luck on my side again.

anything unclaimed or can I throw out my tickets?
:-(

Thank you to everyone who came. All of the prizes were claimed. We will post the names of the winners once I can keep my eyes open for more then 10 minutes. Thank you all again for making the show a huge success.

All of the prizes were claimed...

In the words of Al Gore, where do I get a recount?

Turntable Isolation platform Whiplash


I got that one. Problem is now I feel compelled to get a TT worthy of it. This is gonna hurt.

My thanks to Whiplash!
