... that Lauren came into my life, having made a week-long trip on hauler from Salem, Oregon to southeastern Pennsylvania.

I'll never forget it - we arranged to meet right off a major highway and I was so excited that I completely unprepared. The car was very dirty (it was an open hauler) and I could barely see out the windshield. I didn't even know how to turn the lights on (but the truck driver did) and the alignment and tires were both just about gone.

Somehow I did drive the five or so miles home. I immediately began cleaning it up while my wife poured some celebratory glasses of champagne. Within a few hours I had the light blue metallic paint respectable enough to take a couple of pictures and post them to the appropriate locations.

March 5th, 2004 - a very good day!

They did exist until about eight years ago, when they were purchased by Tweeter. They had been sliding downhill, going seriously mid-fi for a couple of years before that. In the 1980s, they sold the top-of-the-line - Nakamitchi Dragons, B&W 801s, etc. Sad ...

Wow! Four years??? Damn... seems like yesterday. That means it's been four years since the Gordon Killebrew presentation!

Congrats for the birthday!

Tweeter took Bryn Mawr and really trashed it. No one wants high end audio anymore. Those that do are stuck with a few local folks scattered across the country, but it's getting harder and harder to find.

Tweeter was still pretty decent as of 4 years ago, but the competition with Best Buy/Circuit City/Et.Al. has flat out trashed them.

Sad... great customer service, tho.
