Just finished cleaning up from Emofest 2009.
All I can say, which is the same of every staff member is 'WOW.'
We've been talking about throwing a 'homecoming' from our customers for a couple of years, and when we decided to do it, we hoped that maybe 50 people would show up. We had over 200 people feasting, visiting, enjoying music and just having a great time today. It was amazing.
On behalf of the whole staff here at Emotiva, thanks to everyone who came out. It was truly a great time, and we couldn't be happier.
We hired a professional event photographer, and after the holiday, we'll have photos up. Many Fest patrons will be putting theirs up as well in the next couple of days.
We couldn't have done it without you!

The thanks goes to you! Attending Emofest was great and a first class event all the way. Great people, fantastic gear, good food, and music- doesnt get any better than that. Thanks for showing Melanie and I a great time. Emofest was truly a generous gesture.

Emofest and Nashville in general exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much. I am an Emo customer for life and I have converted two of my friends who came with me. You folks are truly first class.

The fest was well organized and a lot of fun. I got a chance to audition the USP-1 and ERC-1. I like them so much that I bought both. BTW, incredible discounts. Lonnie and the rest of the staff also took the time to answer all of my questions. First class event from a first class company.

I couldn't make it down from NY, but I'm glad the event was successful. Looking forward to the pictures...

Thanks to all the Emo staff for putting on a great event. My wife and I had a good time. The bands were great. ZigZag was really good but could have used a little more Cow Bell.

To all the great folks at Emotiva - THANKS!!!! What a great weekend. You guys reinforced to me the kind of people you are and company you run...top notch on both counts!
To all the Emonuts I had the pleasure of meeting - it was super to meet you all and share our common passion.
And Fernando - great to see you again - glad to hear you got both the new units. I already got my USP-1 hooked up, and it's a major WOW out of the box! My turntable never sounded so good. The USP-1 SMOKES my Denon AVR-receiver's sound on CD's also. Low noise, very tight bass. Gotta love that!

We all worked really hard on the event, but Cathy was the real warrior there, and the queen of details and follow-through.

I have been treated like a king before back in May when we were down for a visit. All I can say is they took things to another level this weekend! I have never seen something so organized and all the bases were covered for not just audiofreaks but families that came to the event. Honestly my fiance and I commented more on what was going on outside for all the kids. Just classy once again. You guys are the best and always exceed expectations. I don't know what I was expecting for the first one, but honestly the trial run always has some growing pains. What in the world could you guys possibly do next year to outdo yourselves? ?? Great time!

For the 1st time I felt like the company I was buying from actually cares about the customer and not just about profit. Emotiva was 1st class all the way. They even had a jumpy thing for the kids. The bands were great also. The free beer and wine was just icing on the cake!
Emotiva is the real deal, I didn't even have to press 1 for English (LOL)

I'll repeat what everyone else has said... awesome event by some really cool people. I managed to twist my wife's arm into coming from Iowa. We brought our 4 young kids. Not kidding when I say they all had just as much fun as I did. Apparently it just takes good food and good music to appease my wife, and a bouncy house and face painting to keep my kids happy more pics

To quote my wife "They didn't just crack a bag of Doritos!"

Hi to all, I am going home this morning. Wow is perfect to describe Emofest. I also enjoyed the enthusiasm and energy and incredible friendliness everyone showed. To Dan L. and Dann G, Lonnie, and Cathy, Beth, Sarah both Chris' and anyone else I may have forgotten the names, but never the kindness and warmth, the most sincere thanks from me. I will be posting pictures when I get home, and will have a little video too to show the event in motion too.
To all that attended and had pleasure to meet, thank you too for your being so nice. Only goes to prove Emo- fans are too some of the friendliest people too. Emotiva Forever.
Vincedog3.
