Also, not to post twice, but it's a terrible shame about you not getting your UM3s. They sounded absolutely fantastic at the meet, and they had at least ten pairs floating around the office of what must have been prototypes. What a cool door prize it would have been for you to have the ONLY pair in the wild!
Also, it's a shame that Westone won't be attending this year's meet. I sincerely hope that it has nothing to do with this situation, because they were good guys and it was a very nice gesture to allow unwashed masses of headfellows to invade their conference room.
Probably a little late to ask now, but has anyone mentioned the meet to Ray Samuels? He was another of last year's excellent exhibitors, and I'd dearly like to hear his R10s again.

On the Westone front, I hope they still pull through on delivering something for us if not someone but I haven't heard back from them.
And yeah, sorry but it is a bit too late to ask any other vendors to attend. But of course if any other vendors are interested in attending at this point, then they can contact me about it - but we're past the timeframe where I can ask. And Mikhail has at least one set of R10s too btw.
I'm interested in joining the get together in Denver. I live in Colorado Springs and this sounds like fun. I am new to Head-Fi but have been playing with audio for over 40 years. Until I joined Head-Fi in April my head phone inventory consisted of a pair of Koss Pro4AAs (35 years old!) and the ear buds that came with my iPod (4G). I now have AGK701s, Denon 2000s, Grado 225s and Sennheiser PX-100s. Not bad or not good (depends on how you look at it) for only 2 months of being a member of Head-FI. By the way I'm broke now!
I'm still planning to come and I did a major upgrade to my digital source, recently adding a Playback Designs MPS-5 CD/SACD player. It's amazingly organic and easy to listen to. I've recabled the 701s with Cardas and found a Holland GZ34 rectifier for the Woo WA6. It was a good rig before but it's launched into the stratosphere lately.
Will we need long extension cords and tables, or will some of that be provided? I rent tables for the Rocky Mountain Trumpet Fest and pass the cost to the exhibitors (10-bucks or so per table, delivered).

Thanks Blutarsky but it gets better (or worse). I have a RSA Predator coming this week and am sending the iPod to Red Wine to be iMod'ed. This forum has really been bad for my financial well being!
