Once again I missed the date and time!

But I see source was a streamer only?

Valve amps look glorious.

Hi Deano, an update on this?

Likely not possible in current crazy lockdown code?

I see in www.aucklandhificlub.com/ that the next one might be projected to 04/11/21

Cheers!

Under Auck Covid rules Level 3 Step 3.

" social gatherings, indoors and outdoors, can take place with a limit of 50 people in a defined space. "

I think Auck is still in Step 1 ?

How about a virtual meeting ?

Any plans deano1974 for a session under the traffic light system?

Yep, just waiting for St Lukes to confirm the 22nd of December, hopefully the session will go ahead, will now more on Monday

Manager & Product specialist at Rapallo AV & HI-FI

Hi Guys

Club will resume mid January, date TBC, first event of the year will feature the system that our members voted for

Merry Christmas to all our members and to the all the Dark Latern crew

Deano

Manager & Product specialist at Rapallo AV & HI-FI

Any update on the next date deano1974?

Hi Guys

The club meet was supposed to be February, however due to Auckland going to red on the traffic light system we feel it would be irresponsible to gather 30-40 people into one room

So hopefully fingers crossed maybe we will be back in March

And we have so many new systems for people to hear

Be safe everyone

Deano

Manager & Product specialist at Rapallo AV & HI-FI

Good call Deano. Better to be safe and live to listen another day.

So now the restrictions are loosened ... ?

I see the website has a November lineup pencilled in...
