North West Naim Society

Hello James,

Glad you enjoyed it! I received your email as well - the numbers for the get-together are looking good.

Cheers

Mark

Been waiting for this for a while. Fealt a bit envious of the guys down south when they talked about their get togethers. Also no stranger at The AC and currently eyeing up a pair of Zu Def II'2 so count me in for the Aug affair.

Regards Abi.

Hi Abi,

It will be great to meet you.

It is looking like it is going to be a very good weekend.

Regards, James

Count me in for the 16th or 17th...I've got a weekend off for a bloody change.

Ryan

Hi Ryan - looks like Saturday 16th will be the big day! Great you are off for a change. See you later!

Mark

Mark,

Thanks for your invite. I would love to come, but I am not sure if I will be able to make the date.

Anyway, enjoy the day and, at some point, I would be interested in hearing your set up that has obviously impressed James.

Regards

Richard

Dear All,

The date for the NWNS is the 16th August 2008.

Please acknowledge attendance on the 16th August to james@mercuryrecycling.co.uk

Bugger, working that weekend.

Would really have liked to come along to this get together. Hope you all have a great time.

Hopefully next time my shifts will work out for a change.

Regards,

Martin

Sorry to hear that, Martin. I received your text and hoped you would be able to make it. Never mind, there may well be more..............By the way, my door is still open if you fancy calling round - just give me a call when you are free.

Mark

Thought the North West of the UK was in Scotland?

Might be time to get Naim to come up there with a few things, And some Free bee's.
Just a thought.
They did it down here in March.
Its very good PR.
Munch

Yes, we are certainly hoping for Naim representation - along with a Powerline! And some freebies............

Mark

All,

Hope the day(s) go well for everyone, unfortunately I am being dragged off to sunnier shores for two weeks so will be unable to attend

Save me some freebies if Naim send any.

Regards,

Col

Hi Colin,

Thats a shame, we won't be able to meet the illusive Ashtoncol

Have a good Druid free Holiday

Drop me a line on james@mercuryrecycling.co.uk, to arrange a meet.

All the best

James

What are the timings to meet on the Saturday?
I'd like to go a football match at 3pm but if enough people are around in the morning I could journey over with a disc or two. Anyone like the Trembling Blue Stars ?

Regards
Richard

Hi RichardS,

I will be there in the morning, so you are more than welcome. Never heard of the Trembling Blue Stars though.

Look forward to seeing you there.

James

Well tomorrow is the day! Having spoken to a couple of fellow Forum members it looks as though there will be around 8-10 of us. I spoke to those good people at Naim HQ and they have sent us some sampler CD's. I missed the post today as I went straight to Oxfordshire after I left the ship on Wednesday evening, and have only just got home. I'll pick them up from the Delivery Office in the morning on the way to Cheadle.
For those who are coming could you give us an idea of what time you will be arriving? I hope to be there about 11am. Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.

Mark

I have a few errands to run in and around Cheadle so should be there 1030ish. Will be leaving 1330 or so to go and watch Witton Albion kick off in the Unibond Premier League.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Thanks Stuart,

Hello Richard,

Just spoke to Norman D - he should be there with Paul by the time you arrive. Myself and Ryan D will be there about 11am. I think James A is planning on an early start as well - James......come in, James!!

Mark

Many thanks to all who turned up. It was great to meet up with so many like minded people and enjoy some good music and a few laughs, and put a few faces to names!!

Many thanks also to Audio Counsel for their efforts and time (and some lovely sandwiches) and not being salesmen for the day (well to us!!), although I'm not so sure Mike will think that about the rest of us (no, we weren't put up to it by Dave!!)

All the best

Ryan

Hi Ryan, and all who attended, a very good day indeed.

Some good music, some outstanding speakers, and excellent guys and good crack.

As Ryan said excellent sandwiches, but we will have to watch Mark next time, it took Brian half an hour to vac up the crumbs he left .

Excellent to see Charles, Mark, Norman, Paul, Mike, Richard, yourself Ryan, and Ken.
Hope you all enjoyed it?

Norman, Dave has worked out some trade-in figures for you to down grade and get the Zu Presence .
Mark, Dave said he would keep the Definitions warm just for you .

Many thanks to Dave and Brian at the AC for all the effort in the humid weather. We really appreciate it.

Its a pity Simon and AshtonCol could not make it, maybe next time.

Hope to see you all soon.

I'd post some pictures of the ZU Presence, but I do not know how to do it on this forum.

James

James you could mail them to me at my email, in profile and i'll post them. If you're using a pc is quite easy.

Again my thanks to all for a good day.

Ryan

Ryan / Mike / Mark / Norman

You have mail.

James

It was really great to meet everyone on Saturday. Mark, I'm envious of your system, I've a feeling I'll have to bite the 552 bullet one day, not yet a while though. Many thanks to Dave & Brian for hosting, sorry I had to leave before sarnie time!
Dave, Thanks for your offer to load Nils Lofgren's Acoustic Live onto an HDX for me if I bought one. I managed to find a lone secondhand copy on Amazon last night. Cost me twenty quid though.

got the mail thanks James. Will reply later today. Got to go box up the vinyl which means I'm going to be completely without my system for about 3 weeks .

Ryan
