Well today Spud 71 "Joel" Blu_Fuz "Joe and I all got together at Joe's house in Fox Lake Wisconsin for a mini meeting today.
We all had an awesome time and Joe was a super gracious host and cooked Brats and Hamburgers on the BBQ for us and had lots of great stuff for us to eat and snack on all day. :smooch: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Spud brought a whole carload of JVC's with him for us to play with.
I had my Chevy Malibu loaded to the gills with boomboxes as well.
Between the three of us I would guestimate there was about 35 boxes at the meet,some Joe had hidden on his porch.
It was a lot of fun and I had a great time visiting and messing around with everyone's boxes.
I really loved the look on Joe and Joel's face when I whipped out my Altec Lansing IMT800 and showed it off,I know they were very very surprised at the sound.
They both joked about how it would make everything else sound like crap compared to it,LOL! :lol: :lol:
We even had a little battle against Spud's JVC PC550 and my Panasonic RX-C300.
I think I won,but Spud won't admit it, LOL!!!!! j/k :lol: :lol: ;-)
A BIG thanks to Joe and your wife for putting this on.....
Thanks you for bringing some of your awesome collection as well Joel. :smooch:
Well here's a few pics of the action,enjoy....... :stereo: :dj-party:

Considering only 3 of you got together, that's allot of radios!

You guy's have some great examples of some top notch boxes. It always makes me smile when I see a TRC-920 in the mix! :yes:

LOL, I think the 300 was defo louder than the 550
Don't ask Spud though,he'll deny it.............. :dunce: :drunk:
I caught him trying to steal my Ipod and he almost left his S90 and PC550 behind at Joe's. :angelic: :-O
I don't think he tried to steal any condiments,but he was digging around in Joe's gigantic refrigerator....LOL :blush: :thumbsdown:
Joe and I were going to keep them,but he caught on,damn it........ :bang: :nugget:

Oh, man! :w00t: That's an awesome mini meet - there are so many boxes. :yes: I wonder why we can't get off our asses and get the big 2011 Boomfest planned? :-/ Thank goodness that geezer from Detroit didn't show up and crash the party. :lol: :lol:

Oh yeah, that was an awesome meet! :breakdance: :breakdance: :breakdance: :breakdance: :breakdance:



So many boxes and we actually listened to all of them.


The battle, no matter what Joel says (he's in denial ;-) ), the C300 hammers out the lows quite a bit better, but it has the advantage of bigger speakers..... Great battle.


The mini JVC that has the removable cassette walkman is kick ass :thumbsup: :thumbsup: .


The Lansing..... wow. We had a stint of bringing out the best sounding boxes one right after another right in the middle of the meet. Bad idea, makes all other boxes sound like crud after hearing the Lansing, M90, M70....... it was hard to continue.

I learned a lot about these different boxes...... sizes, sound, weight, cost :-O , etc......

Glad to host anytime guys - to me, it was a MAXI MEET! Thanks for bringing all the JVC gear spud and thanks skip for bringing your wide array of mid size boomers.


Damn, I am going bald :-/ .

Top notch, wish there were more people round here for some mini meets. Seems you guys have got it good for that I'm jealous.
I've tried to get together with a few people, maybe they are just scared of me. However, its a British thing, each to their own kidna thing :(

Loved the pics too. :drool: :thumbsup:
