Lot of great gear at the meet. Fun time. Really liked the "new" Lyr with Bifrost. Not as impressed with HE1000's as I thought I might be. At least not $3000 impressed. Moar later. Have a 7 + hour drive ahead. Need more coffee.  p:8

If I didn't have to drive Bob Levi up today, I would have skipped and just chilled at home today.  :)p1

Thanks for helping us get an incredible meal. I'll just have to remember what was ordered the next time I'm there.

Yeah, that was pretty shameless of OJ there at the end.  :)p13

+1 Worthy owns for specific preferences. LOL on the third DAC being already out of the race from the get go.

If what I head was the reDACTed^2 -> Lyr2 (speshul sauce tubes) -> Ether, that was a great setup. I like the Ethers. Hopefully Dan will be more consistent with this set of cans... and perhaps make them more affordable (or have an affordable plebe version).

Not too impressed with the HE1K. I've told this to NoOne411 before. To splashy and bright for me. Proly preferences.

Couldn't go to dinner, but Yi Mei was awesome.

I liked the Magico Q7MK2 speakers this time around, though I felt the sweet spot was somewhat narrow.

Also, got my UE ear impressions. And indeed my ear holes are big and deep. Which my explain why many IEMs that some folks consider neutral and nice sound anemic while bassy ones sound right to me. Of the table, I like the UE 7 Pros bestest.
