Mike's Barn.

@mikelavigne you should host a listening party, that way we can all do our own videos for everyone to comment on.

Got a few records ready to go! Would love to hear how they sound on that system!

@mswale you would be welcome any time you are in the neighborhood. and also fine to bring your records but i have plenty too.

i have visitors on average once maybe twice a month, and larger groups 3-4 times a year. right now a larger group is scheduled for late April. about every other year i have 25+ from the local audio club visit. done that for 20 years. the audiophile/music loving community means a lot to me.

that way we can all do our own videos for everyone to comment on.

there are a few video’s out there. i neither encourage or discourage videos, and never comment on the sound. not a big believer in phone video’s as evidence of positive or negative system performance. YMMV

Mike is such an incredible ambassador for high end audio. Mike is so generous with his time and wisdom. I am fortunate to have been welcomed to Mike's barn numerous times over the years. No matter how great it has sounded (and it always sounds amazing) Mike keeps working on making it sound better. That same focus on detail and continuous improvement is why Mike had an incredible career in the automobile business. Mike's friendship and guidance have played an integral part in my hi-fi journey. 
 

it sounded like my cheap laptop speaker to me. Oh well.
