Coincidentally have a conference in Boston on the 22nd that runs until 3pm. Depending on what time I actually get out of there, I am going to try like heck to get over to Newton.

Getting in the car! We're driving down tonight. Dinner at the Hilltop Steakhouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See ya there! Ah the Hilltop in Saugus.. do they still have statues of cows outside? There's an awesome pizza place a little south on Rt. 1. It's called Prince Pizza and they have a comedy club there too. Pizza is amazing. |

Last time I was at the Hilltop, the cows were still there. I saw Nick DiPaolo at Prince a year or two ago. Very intimate comedy club...we were almost sitting on the stage. C |

Still planning on stopping by. Unfortunately going to be late in the day. Wonder if I'll need to make room in my trunk?  |

It's going to be late in the day for me also, probably 3:30-4:00. My 10 year old is in a tournament game at 8:30, he has football tryouts at 11 and my daughter's gym competition is at noon.

Just back from the show. We only stayed a couple of hours, but it was time enough to buy a pair of XPA-1Ls on an insane deal - $1118!!! I got caught by the wife making the purchase. Boy am I in deep s$#%!
2 Channel Room:
This room had main setup of ERC, XDA, XSP and 3 power amp possibilities. XPA1Ls, Carver BB305s and XPR. XPRs also on subs. I didn’t do a lot of listening as I find this environment difficult to determine differences, IMO !
Static display of the new Gen II XPA-2 and XPA-5. These units have upgraded innards and new black beveled trim. $100 price bump.
Static display of other Carver units.
Didn’t see Pro DAC!
HT Room:
Two setups one was Sherboure, one was Emotiva. No XMC-1, they were using a UMC in the Emotiva setup.
I spent most of my time listening to Dan talk for about an hour at the XPA Gen II static display.
Key items:
Tact just didn’t play well with the other kids inside the XMC-1. Dirac was just a better fit in terms of performance and integration into the DSP of the XMC-1.
Dirac will also be coming to perhaps both an analog and digital add-on processor. 2 different units. This sounds a lot like the MiniDSP OpenDRC units.
Carver will be the premium tube line, but there will also be an Emotiva tube line. Dan said something like “This will bring the Emotiva performance/cost model to the tube enthusiast.”
New sub line due out shortly!
