Thanks a lot Sareen, Aman, Sachin for organizing such a beautiful event. Sorry for not able to participate in organizing as I was in the process of moving into a new Job. Thanks for the sponsors for participating and showing some excellent gear. Made many new friends too. This event was much bigger than the last year's event. Looking forward for next year and hoping to participate in organizing the event.
 
A special Thanks to Aman and Sareen and the other folks. I'm really feeling bad that I couldn't make it due to my illness. Would be great if we couple of folks can meet on a weekend. Not and Audio Video Meet but just a casual meet.

What say Sachin, Sarin, Aman, Sajjad, Blasto, Krishna, Pandu?
 
Is this only for the people who attended or includes people whose email addresses you have? Can I have pics sent to my email address as well please?

I have uploaded the pics voa imageshack. Will be sending emails to all the members who attended. You can pm me your email address. . I cant send the pics as huge in size so just imageshack.:)

So, how did you like the Fountek speakers? :)

Haven't really found any reviews on these yet, so perhaps someone here would be so kind as to give me one?
 
Even i would like to read reviews by Guru's who were present that day. I personally, wanted to compare these reviews with my observations, which by the way wont be much detailed, before posting my thoughts. :). I hope to see some more senior FMs share their thoughts about each of the gear that we had the pleasure of listening to.

Couldn't find any reviews but some details about these speakers here:

Designed from the start for tube amp lovers, they are an easy to drive 89db with an impedance of 8ohms.
You do not have to sacrifice bass with these effcient speakers. They spot a pair of powerful 12" woofers and goes down to 34hz.

Using Fountek's latest Neo X1.0 ribbon to giving you purer & higher highs purer than any silk dome tweeter up to 40khz. Being behind a waveguide, your imaging and soundstaging remains rock solid & expansive even in live rooms.

An advanced 5" midrange with cast aluminum frame and a humongous magnet. With a special dimpled cone, the midrange is lush and smooth yet is transparent and tonally balanced.

Bass woofer has cast aluminum frame, superb ventilation of the voicecoil to cool it quickly and a very hefty magnet/motor system

High end crossover using only audiophile components. This allows the speaker to have a program power handling of 200w with peaks of 300w.

Yup, I been through the specs several times looking for peoples opinions on these speakers. This might sound weird, but I recently bought them myself, and enjoying them I might add :) but I'm very curious about how others perceive them. And because I haven't found anyone else on "local" forums and sites, yet, I thought I'd ask you guys as I saw they were displayed and demonstrated on this event of yours :)
 
A beautiful, well-constructed speaker with class-leading soundstage, imaging and bass that is fast, deep, and precise.
