Great! We'll definitely be able to find table space. If nothing else, I'll stand in the corner and hold my gear.

As s1rrah said, you can just PM me to pay the $15. And also...

Great! I'm glad you'll be able to make it.

I'll update the gear list in the first post as soon as I get a chance.

Really looking forward to this day, now less than a month away!

Current Head-Fi threat level is orange. Intelligence indicates a high risk of money being spent, but a specific target has not yet been identified.

@swt61

I'm picking a few records to try on your gear.

Looking forward to it.

It means I was reserving space for you. My own shorthand, and confusing I'm sure. I have updated it now, but it reminds me I need to get into the clubhouse this weekend and map out the space.

Yeah, actually I wonder what we need to qualify as a full-fledged meet? We certainly have a decent-sized group and some outstanding gear.

I suppose we could just call our event a "meet" if we want.

Sure, I have two now. Both Sansui's... a very nice TU 217 that I need to find a good home for, and a TU 888.

Very cool, because my collection is tiny ATM. And most of you probably already have the definitive Donna Summer collection.

ahem, can you also bring appropriate screw drivers (Al usually brings those too) as well as something to convert to balanced? I think I have something that will do it actually, but perhaps you do?

edit:

between you and Al, there's going to be a lot of "setup" required for this meet

I'll bring some screwdrivers.

I have a pair of female RCA to male XLR adapters, and a pair of female to female XLR adapters that I'll bring.
