Pete H Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Posted 3 minutes ago The organizers of the SWAG have been contacted by many attendees about how their plans are changing due to the Wuhan virus. In lieu of that the dates have been tentatively changed to Oct 16th and 17'th. Things should be back to normal by then and this should give everyone plenty of time to schedule time off at work. Current registration fees can be refunded 100% by contacting @rockhound or paid fees can be transferred to be used on the new dates. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Topic is pinned. I'm fairly certain I'll be able to attend as the normal Pilgrimage dates don't work for me. Looking forward to seeing those that can make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I'll certainly try to be there. I may bring my demonic ATI amp and see if we can further troubleshoot with other gear/power than my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool.. the center channel randomly started buzzing this morning. I only have my AVR as a source and it's the only piece of gear I haven't been able to effectively troubleshoot as a possible problem.

Ok, the "Southern Midwest Audio Gathering" Ohio is "midwest" as well and nowhere close to Hope, or Arkansas for that matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave A Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I find the idea of bringing things to play with built and or altered by Klipsch heads to be quite an interesting idea. After seeing my first Pilgrimage though I have to say the venue there is too small and crowded to allow for a leisurely stroll through lots of gear just to see what they sound like or play swap and shop. Plus you have to stand there and keep the hands of heavy drinkers off your gear from what I could see with Kevin's setup. I have to admit I was kind of disappointed about not bringing the Super MWM's because I wanted to see the look on peoples faces when they were fired up. Truthfully a gathering of tinkerers and builders with their creations is of far more interest to me than another tour of the factory, the theater and the PWK house. How big is the hall and what are the conditions associated with it's use? I will attend if this event happens. I have racks of electronics and I would love a chance to swap and shop with Klipsch Heads. By then I will have what I hope is a prodigious three way system and might have a set of 415's with K 402's on top. I like subtle production of sound. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great to have you Dave! @rockhound is going to swing by and take some measurements of the room so we can plan a bit more, but really had to get a date pinned down and some idea of who's interested and what equipment is expected.

Dave A Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 That could be a big problem Carl. How long is long and what do they have to hook up to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long is long and what do they have to hook up to? more of an "engineering challenge." They did this with a modest system in the early years of what is now The Great Pilgrimage Revival, so I'm sure we'll be able to figure something out.
