Hi ALL,

Hope you are all well.

It is of deep sadness to learn that our long time friend Paul Kaplan has passed away.

Martin has informed me yesterday that Paul has been battling cancer.  This is all I know.

Sad news. 

Thank you,
Levi

RIP, Paul... I learned a lot from you!

Pancreatic cancer does not have great recovery rates... very sad!

Life is too short! Enjoy every day!

Definitely one of the "characters" in this hobby. He certainly left his mark.

Sorry to hear about his passing.

Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and you'll have  to blow your nose.

Very sad news indeed.  Paul was a genius of many things.  He'll be sorely missed.

Sad news indeed! I was just reviewing some PMs we'd exchanged...

RIP Sir...

P.S. I was also listening to "Balkan Beat Box" over the weekend and thinking of him.

  Paul was one of a kind. A genus, a friend, he will be missed. We should honor him with a RAVE.

Sad news to have to read,,, my thoughts & condolences go out to his wife. I'm glad I got meet them both at a RAVE from their home in the heart of NYC. Great people and a wonderful sounding system. I had a great time as I did with all the RAVES I attended a decade ago.

Like Charles Rollo, I too am having eye issues in my senior years so my long distance driving days are done,,, pretty much like the NY RAVE. But my memories are alive & well as is my A/V system.

Cheers,

WOW, I've been away from this site for the longest ever, at least a month, and was confronted by this sad news.

RIP, Paul!
