BILL should we avoid bringing gear if it's already present?  I could bring Rag and guigner/wyrd, but I already see a Rag on the list, how is room table wise?

I plan on bringing my super rare Senn HH10, they are no longer in production.

Mm... I don't think so. If there's only one pair of HD800, but everybody wants to hear them out of different setups, then it'd be quite hard, right?

So I'd say... bring anything you're comfortable with bringing. Duplicates are actually encouraged in this case.

That's what I'm thinking, just making sure you got the table space.  Then I would bring the Rag, gungnir, wyrd and my Jan Meier amp, HE-6, BP-560, HD-800, HD-600.

Well, our host said 30 bodies, with gears. And they're still renovating the space, so... who knows? If there will be limited space, I'll let you know.

For now, it's looking like this meet will have quite a bit of space for people to bring gears. :)

I'll also personally go visit them in a few weeks, take photos of the space, and then post them up. I'll also prepare tables, assign space, and so on... etc... It's one of the rare meets that I'll get to organize by myself so... rest assured. It won't be sloppy.

Bill, you can add to list:

Beyerdynamic DT-1350 (good BOC, AustinValentine approved)

Project Ember- w/supercharger module and adaptor for 6SN7 type tubes.

Project Ember-with a few tweaks and mods.

And possibly a prototype amp. Assuming it gets here on time.

And the usual suspects. Gungnir, Valhalla 2 ,  HD800, HD650. etc. all on the list already.

I can bring my Wadia 581 SACD player/DAC (only the DAC works) if anyone has interest in an R2R DAC with 3 filters to select from. And a CD player this time since my converter sucks, as such, it didn't sound its best at zero's meet. Do you still have the Ciunas converter? I seem to recall you sold it. If someone has one I could use at the meet it would be appreciated.

Should be a good time.

Ravi has it. He's not using it, so I think you can ask him to let you borrow it.

This meet is shaping up to be a really big one! :)p1

I totally use the ciunas :). Wyrd > Ciunas > TransDAC > Ragnarok is my main system. I can bring it by.

Now that I have Geek Out 450 to use for Code-X, LCD-2, Abyss... I kinda regret selling you that TransDAC, Ravi. LOL

Gotta get on cloning it in the summer. Maybe swap the PCM1702 for PCM63, and then inject a bit of analog sorcery that I used to make my amp in it. This way, I can have my own sound signature while using the Cavalli Liquid Carbon. :)p1
