Old Times, Good TImes

CES 2010

By John Atkinson • Posted: Jan 12, 2010

CES is where you can see the new but it is also where you can catch up with old acquaintances. Caught here in the CES Press Room in Jon Iverson's photo, I'm standing on the left with my partner in Stereophile Inc. for 12 years, Larry Archibald, who is both enjoying his retirement from the high-end audio industry and missing it, and Larry's wife, Laura Chancellor. It was on the 700-mile drive back to Santa Fe, New Mexico, from the CES in January 1986 that Larry, Laura, and I mapped out the future of Stereophile.

It was great to meet Larry and Laura at CES. Lovely folks. It was kind of a "pinch me" moment as I sat in the Stereophile suite blogging while JA and LA chatted it up. Its fun to now be a small part of the Stereophile legacy.

At the end of the day it will most likely come down to the friends we've made and the ones we are lucky enough to have kept. That is a great photo and a keeper for sure for the 3 of you.

Laura looks like she just walked off the Woodstock farm disappointed that Janice Joplin won't return for an encore!
