Zoom your Mother, if she’s still around. We’re not going to do this for you. We’re also not having an event on this day so that there will be no conflict with your Mother’s Day Zoom.

SFAS is pleased to announce a Zesto Audio Zoom meeting with George & Carolyn Counnas.  Zesto Audio is an American made line of very high quality separates that competes with the best products made. George & Carolyn introduced their first phono stage 10 years ago and have been updating and adding to their product line ever since. They now have a full line with a world class tube preamp, two state of the art Class A tube power amplifiers as well as 3 phono stages and a superb Step up Transformer.

Stay tuned for updates on this event!

The highlight of this event is “single-driver speakers” introducing the Sibelius speakers from Pearl Acoustics. We will listen to two systems: first a brief listen to a DIY amp and single-driver speakers followed by a more extensive listen to affordable commercial equivalents. The goal is to dispel the notion that modern single-driver speakers are “very limited”. This is definitely not your father’s Oldsmobile . . .

Place: near Montague Expressway and River Oaks Dr., San Jose.
