YAY! I was invited to join ML president at local Tweeter for Vista unveiling!

[Joey_V]

Yup yup.. got a little post card in the mail regarding the Vista and they are having an unveiling of the Vista at my local Tweeter (15miles away)... only problem is that it is on a school day (March 28). Dont know if I should play hookie.

It says on the card:
You are invited to attend the VIP world premiere of the new MartinLogan Vista electrostatic loudspeaker.

Please join MartinLogan President Rafael Nevares - and be among the first to experience this phenomenal new electrostatic speaker.

MHO -You can always hear the Vista. Will you be able to get what you miss in the course? If you can, you might as well go. Otherwise? (Spoken by a former teacher - I'm prejudiced.)

If Gayle was there.. for sure 100% I'd be there.... but I dont even know this Rafael guy.

Roberto,

Is this guy like the head of Shoreview or is he a bonafide audiophile guy?

As you may or may not have known Gayle was owner and president of Martin Logan, when he stepped down as President to get back into the R&D side of the company Rafael took over as president.

Long time ago he was with Electro Voice Company, if I am not wrong...he is a very nice guy! and he knows about business. Now, he is the President of ML.
He knows our product and the market. It is good to have him with ML.
Roberto.

I see....

Well, this is an interesting turn of events - now, my interest has piqued!

He might even announce the new Summit i with the improved midrange and give attendees a good discount on it. ...kidding, kidding.

If you take a look at the "PRESS KIT" that ML sent regarding the Vista, there is an invitation to that same event (see Vista Postcard). I believe that any of us could attend.

If anyone from this site plans on attending, it would be cool to take some photos that we could post!!!

[Cherian]

I would love to attend. How do I get an invitation? Joey I can always go in your place.

 

[Joey_V]

Hey Cherian!

We could both go... I'm sure they wouldnt mind 2 audiophiles for the price of 1 card.

 

[Cherian]

Sounds good just tell me when.

 

[stesom]

I got one to. I think you just need to be signed up to the ML site or maybe it has something to do with registered owners........7-9PM Tuesday March 28th 1600 West 16th Street, Oak Brook, IL 60523 630.990.1410

I would think that anyone stopping by is welcome.

Hey Joey_V this is the brand new show case Tweeter that just opened in Oakbrook, I have heard it is really nice. My sales guy from Naperville is now working there.......Steve

 

[Cherian]

Oh sure the only evening I am tied up. Just my bad luck!!!

Steve,

Are you coming this Tuesday?

Joey

 

[stesom]

I think I should make it on Tuesday. I just picked up a new toy, a new 05 acura nsx so now I really am screwed for time. Should I be listening to another record or driving my car.....it will be nice to meet you and some other folks on Tuesday.....Steve

 

[Joey_V]

Well.. let me know by Monday if you're going. I will probably make my decision by that time. I *could* go if I dont go to school on Tuesday and just go to the doctor's office to shadow him during most of the day, then make my way to the Tweeter store afterwards.

It would be nice to meet another Loganite.

Unless something happens I will be there.......Steve

 

[Joey_V]

Steve,

I might not be able to make it today...

Please try to A/B it with the Vantage just to discern the differences, if any. I'm very interested in the panel - and if both use the same exact panel, right down to the critical crossover at 400hz.

Be sure to post your impressions!

Thanks,
Joey
