Hank - I will be there on Saturday. And by the way, the HT meet pix are up! Check out my new thread for the link...

The meet went well, but it was kind of a small crowd: Hank Frankenberg Greg Risley Frederick Falk Nils Luehrmann Jonathan Atkins (edit: I forgot someone! Now he's on the list!) Scott Oliver Rodney (whose last name I don't remember) ... and myself ... It was quite an adventure...

Everyone - I've been working on a Web site with pictures from the first Austin HT meet, as well as the most recent meet. Tomorrow morning I will put the finishing touches on the site and post it. The wait is almost over...

Nils - I may be interested in "Aliens" and "Apollo 13." I'll bring cash to the meet...

Jonathan - "Groundhog Day" was a movie that really pleasantly surprised me. I was expecting it to be a by-the-numbers light romantic comedy, but it dared to be more thought-provoking than that... Though it was frustrating seeing him live the same day over and over again, it was quite...

Jonathan - You're right, a lack of time is keeping me from throwing together a Web site with the HT meet pictures. I was going to try to put something together this evening...but if I don't have time or don't finish, I'll bring a few CD-Rs with the pictures to the meet on Saturday...

What kind of psycho would attack the DIY audio forum with viruses? Evidently one with absolutely no shame...

Mark - Your computer feeling 'under the weather'? Perhaps it caught a virus??? :)

Hank - If Nils brings the plastic panels to the meet, I'm especially looking forward to seeing them in action. If I like what I see, then I'll take the hint... :)

Wow ... a lot has happened in this thread since the last time I checked it. Work is kicking my butt and keeping me from spending a lot of time organizing this meet. I'm particularly interested in the DIY acoustic treatment and projector/screen shootout ideas being proposed. Whoever eventually...

Steve - I like the projector shootout idea. By the way, how cheap are good CRT FPTVs becoming? It's been about a year since I looked, but an HD-capable CRT with

Either May 4 or 11 works for me. We could do our tweak testing - speaker wires, analog & digital interconnects, power cords, etc. We could also compare sighted and blind testing results. I have an SPL meter so we can approximately level-match. Who hasn't hosted yet who would like to???
