sir mark!

simula nung nagpa grand EB ka eh grabe ang HT gallery kulaman!  ibang klase ang spike!

cheers to that really!  mukhang matindi tindi ang na build na fellowship!

kailangan talagang maulit!  sana dumami din ang absorbers sa mga EB, at pwede din ma-test!

I want to thank everyone who joined the EB yesterday for coming, and for the drinks and food you brought. I know that some of you guys came from quite far away. Special mention to sanmig_ph who took a few hours to get to the house. There also seems to be a big Sta Rosa mafia that attended. ;D

As I mentioned in my PM to you guys, the HD blind test was only one of the objectives of the EB. I thought of organizing a really big EB when the Warning thread blew up and seemed to cause mistrust and paranoia in the community. I thought that a big masaya EB would help to bring back the camaraderie at Pinoydvd, and I think we have achieved that objective. Special mention siguro sa mga magugulo kagaya ni xxxyzledge and his special requests.  ;D ;D Special mention din to Waxx, the Pinoydvd idol and Mr. Golden Ears.  ;D ;D

Mahirap din to organize the EB, lalo na ang procedure for the blind test. I had to re-calibrate the pj and individually calibrate each source. Had to choose scenes which would best show the differences between HD and SD video and audio. Had to design a simple scoring system and tabulation method. But actually, what was giving me sleepless nights was the possibility that one of the key components would break down in the middle ... like the pj lamp blowing, or the fuse of the AVR - it happens. Mabuti na lang that all went well.

Maraming salamat to iiinas, who went to the house at 9 a.m. and helped me to work out the actual details of which scenes to show and of how to switch between scenes, etc. I couldn't have done the blind test without his help.

I am really looking forward to the next EB. Revskie has offered his place and my friend's HT at Sta Rosa is also available - it's quite big, mga 40 square meters siguro.

Cheers! :)

Sir Mark, congratulations to a very successful EB! And it was very nice to meet you. ;D I enjoyed and had fun. :P It was also nice to meet several of our memders. You can surely expect to see me on the next coming EB's! ;D

Pumayag na friend ko to host EB at his place in Westgrove, Sta Rosa, neighbor of Sharon. Tentative date is Saturday, Oct. 25, 2 pm. May van ako so Manila guys can hitch with me.

Kelangan pa ng agenda ... We need to think up of some test or something .. Maybe testing different types of sound absorbers? Pero d na blind test, ha.  ;D ;D

Nice, another EB, another reason to spread SARS!  :D

Why don't we try and settle some audio myths (ala mythbusters na to ah...). For instance, the supposed advantage of analog vs. digital (the black pizza vs. silver platter debate).  Or why not compare Tube vs. SS set-ups?  Will the sound be discernible? hehe... daming puede gawin.  ;D  You can choose more HERE.   ;)

Isa pa naisip ko is to have a lecture, with Q&A. Possible lectures:
1. NMT's, downloading, etc. -- Richie See of eHome
2. Audio & video calibration and tweaking -- AV Driver technician (sila rin gumawa ng acoustics ng HT sa Sta Rosa)

Great idea sir mark! since most of the guys are both audio and video philes this would help a lot! The new and affordable DVDO edge looks promising but how will it compare to you v50? That's another shoot out provided we can loan one from I dont know who. ;D
