Any interest in hearing Gershman Black Swan Spkr?


I am expecting a pair of Gershman Acoustic, Black Swan, pretty soon. Is there any one in Minneaplolis/St.Paul areas interested in bringing your amps/preamps over for a shoot out event? I will provide some foods and beverages. My goal is to find out what is the best combination of electronics to drive these speakers. I would love to hear Audio Research Ref 3 if you have it.

Here is what I have:
Amp: C/J Premier 350, Premier LP70s, McCormack DNA 500
Pre: C/J CT5, Cary SL P05
Digital: Cary CD 306 SACD, Sony 777ES, McCormack UDP1 DELUXE
Cables: Acoustic Zen, RCA only.

Thanks in advance.

AnThuan: I live in the area and your proposal sounds interesting...actually perfect for a mid-winter activity program. Actually, one of my buds from the local audio club brought this thread to my attention, so you have at least two of us interested. Shoot me an email and we'll work something out. Look forward to hearing from you!
Aktchi: Geez...I said I look forward to hearing from him (meaning AnThuan), not from Miss Manners or the rest of Audiogon. Lighten up. Have you ever heard the saying "criticize in private, praise in public?" We're all friends here, so please play nice. Thanks.
