Join the party: Mumbai HFV Meet 2011!

Vinay announced donations with certain pre-conditions. IT WAS GENEROUS MOVE. His precondition of getting equal share from other parties was slightly different but he might be thinking that he did not want to create a free party on his behalf .

Great think was he took the imitative, and announced it ,AND THE DAY , THE EVENT HE WAS NOT ATTENDING. ,In fact original date of Dec 18 th was suitable for him , but he did not even push for his request. THIS THING CERTAINLY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED.

VINAY DOES NOT NEED TO PROVE HIS GRACIOUSNESS. IT IS ALREADY PROVED. In the past he sold his premium DVD player and donated the amount to HFV . He donated his collection of 200 DVD to HFV members now that time he had conditions ,but it added the excitement..

Now I was handling Vinays donation issue ,certain communication happened and all of sudden posting started coming openly about his payment and why he has not done.I think these things needs to be handled discreetly ,via PM route. Because of this open posts I lost face and frankly cannot communicate with Vinay further.

By the way the original costing was NEVER done considering donations. In fact certain buffer is kept for some incidental expenses , some guests ,stationary cost etc. IT IS AN EXPENSIVE HOBBY , people spend thousands of euros on cables ,and maybe some members are spending more on petrol than admission charges . So payment is really a non issue. OUR ORIGANL IDEA WAS TOO NEVER HAVE A FREE EVENT INSPITE OF ALL DONATIONS ,BUT CHARGE SOME MINIMUM AMOUNT , as free event looses its quality attendees.

BTW as a member of organizers I was given tasks of collecting donations ,which was not happen.MY BAD. But no one in the committee (which includes me) was aware that a followup and audit body is formed . Instead of follow-up of events not happening if anyone does something in getting the funding or support or help it will be greatly appreciated.

VINAY I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THIS WILL NOT AFFECT THE PERSONAL RAPPORT BETWEEN US.We still want you for the meet ,that is prime criteria.
 
Can non members of Hi-Fi Vision attend ?
They may be audio persons - but may not be a part of this forum;
Kindly advise....
If you do not allow 'non members' can that person register now ?
I sent the link to them, but some how the registeration did not happen - so I am posting this question...
Some seniors please do clarify..
Thanks,

I could try;
There is a D & D that is interested in attending;
He wants to get some speakers to play / demo / audition @ the meet.
He is not a member of this forum & has asked me if he can visit. I posted a question, but have not received a reply.
What may I say to this person ? Can he / Should he come ? If it is not OK, that too is fine, just let me know & I shall convey it to him.
Thanks. Shall appreciate a response.

Is the querysorted?
Or contact Denom ( Dave) as this thing was already discussed - Denom will guide the procedure.

Answer is definatly in + ve direction:rolleyes::ohyeah:,as Denom handling this , he will tell
 
Where is the final list of equips on demo ? is it listed on this thread to include dealers who entered later.
 
Regarding non-members entry, Denom will confirm shortly.
The hotel is informed to accommodate max. 40 staff as of now and already there are 29+3 guests on the list.

There are atleast 5-6 members sitting on a 50:50 chance. All these members are requested to confirm their presence latest by tomorrow (Sat) 2 pm.

Now including dealer demos we have too many items on the list.
We may have to chop the list and also the duration of each demo.

The mapping and sequencing is almost done, Hemant will update on that.
We will start with Norge+Wharf 9.2 and end with Shanti's system. Since good no. of DACs are expected, we will have a DAC shootout as well, towards the end by keeping a good transport+amp+speaker combination common throughout.

Requesting all my friends to reach the venue by 9.30 - 10.00 am :)
Denom and Hemant to be here before 9 am please. :D

I am unable to fit my speakers into the boot of my Skoda.

This is the size of the packing - kept ready in my office porch & it does not fit into the boot of the car;

Another Picture :-

The small box @ the end is the Ribbon Tweeter.

In my place - Nexus Audio will come & he will demo a PMC Speaker - I am still trying to get a confirmation on that - it should happen.

I am sorry about the 'resurrection' [it just does not fit into my car] !
I do hope you understand.

The Speaker Looks like this :-

Will post a few more pics - soon.
:sad:
 
WOW :licklips:

The Speakers look 'deadly', pity your car cannot accommodate them! Can you tie -up with another south mumbai member to carry parts of this speakers in his car???

Else we will be unlucky to miss out on getting the opportunity to listen to them :(
 
Registered myself on the Excel spreadsheet.

@Santy: is it's OK to pay at the venue?

@bhagwan: Sir, will at least one of those speakers come in my boot (after folding back seats)? I think it would be a shame to miss out on listening to them. I believe it's already planned to be finale of the event.

We can do it @ your house - some other day;
It is a pain to get it to Navi Mumbai & Back.
It does not fit in my boot. On the car seat is an issue with Octroi & the car seat [leather] will get messed.

Tell me when you are free & I promise I will get to your house with Audio Aero & Audio Research etc. You get the 'beers' !!

:)

p.s. We will finish with PMC [most likely] !
Trying to get Nexus Audio Video to come along with the gear in my car;;Hope it can happen.

OK, the beer's on me, then:)

@santy, denom, hemant: about the location - is this at the junction where the highway from Vashi (going to Pune) meets the road coming from Koparkhairane? The junction with the long and curvaceous flyover?

Hi Joshua,

If you can't do the transfer to Santy's a/c then sure, pay @ the venue. Just checked the excel sheet - You got audio aero capitol CDP????? Planning to use it only as DAC???? Why??? :rolleyes:

Glad you can join us :)

Yes, get off the flyover & take left towards service road running parallel.

As soon as you get off flyover, you will see Sharayu Hyundai Showroom, the Hotel Yogi Midtown is just next to it.
