Turntable 101 hosted by Stereophile's Michael Fremer

Postby detubo » Wed Dec 19, 2012 5:13 pm

This is what I have lined up for the November Hifi Show 2013. I would say this would be the equivalent of Steve Jobs teaching you how to use iTunes or Warren Buffet on how to pick stocks. Turntable 101 hosted by Michael Fremer! A must for any one serious into analog! He has already accepted my invitation. I may have to charge a small fee this time (P2,000.00 or $50) for the seminar to cover some of the cost. I think it’s a small price to pay for anyone serious into audio. What do you think?

Sounds reasonable to me. Sana Sir may demo din sa harap mala plenary bawat advocate ng DIY, Lenco, Thorenz, Rega, Technics, Linn, etc.

As long as my Php 2,000.00 gets me a photo with the great Michael Fremer. I'll have it made into a life size standee and place it near my TT. I bet it'll open up everything and make my set-up sound like a mega $$$$$ rig :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Kidding aside, another milestone for Sir Detubo. Always thinking of ways to level up the local audio scene. Hats off to you sir :clap: :clap: :clap:

I am thrilled about the enthusiasm. I think bring him over could make next year's show a destination event meaning people from around Asia would fly in to attend. So far my biggest hindrance is the plane ticket (CX round trip business class is $13,000!!!!). Accommodation, Gratuity, Entertainment I can easily take care of. So if anyone has a suggestion on how I can overcome the cost of the plane ticket please throw me a line.

Using Singapore Airlines would probably save you $3000.

i have very little doubt that a Corporate sponsor will come along and shoulder the plane fare.

hmmm...let's see now. who are the corporate bigwigs here in WS? :tmi:

The technique of concert promoters who bring big name artists is to reach out to the telecom giants - SMART and GLOBE because these guys have very, very deep pockets. So that might be one way to go about it.

The other way might be to reach out to the recording companies who just might be into vinyl releases already by 2013.

And then, there's the new vinyl players like Satchmi, Heima, Grey Market, etc.

Just thinking aloud.

Maybe some of the high end audio people in Singapore would be interested in a Fremer visit and could share costs.
Maybe the Japanese would like to get involved. I have no idea who to talk to but i bet someone else does :D
Call it the Michael Fremer Asian Roadshow!
