Won't Joshua come over and do it for you?

He told me that a personal visit for a setup would cost extra. But he did say it in a very nice way.

Didn't expect it to be free. Joshua's damned good and worth whatever he charges.

Hmm, we could have a setup shootout -- Bill vs. Joshua. With a crowd egging the two of you on. As much as any crowd drinking Chateau Margaux does something like that.

A setup in VT should be a bit extra, say room, dinner and some travel time$$(wine would be good too!)

But a setup in NYC should be part of the deal and N/C....

Come on PD, post some pictures!

Jon, Joshua knows Magico intimately. I know it in passing. I happily give the nod to him.

Though I will watch if you're opening a Chateau Margaux.

I have a nice guest room for Bill, complete with a cat who loves to be fed early and often, and I've already promised him Brats while we watch the Mets lose, again.

I believe Margaux pairs nicely with Johnsonville, but I'll double check with Mr. Parker.

I totally agree. Heck, it's a $60k speaker. It's what makes you as a consumer want to do business with him again.

Just a little follow up. I was using McIntosh MC601's. The Q5's sounded quite good. I have since changed to Pass Labs X600.5's, a much higher current amp set. The speakers sound incredible. Your amplification choice is quite important here.
