Pff, that's not excitement. Thursday-Tuesday is excitement.

Brand new ATH-ESW9's on my head right now are pretty exciting too. Halfway through giving them a hell of a first run on Metallica's ...And Justice For All. They're doing quite well.

Hi Guys,
Noob here from S. FL. I just found this site and am glad I did. I have been in this hobby for 10 years. I would love to go to the CanJam and hopefully can, but I have a baby on the way, due anytime now. Besides this event, are there any other FL members that meet regularly? I am in the Broward/PB area. Thanks,
Jeremy

tyrion and jp11808 use to do mini meets...im in Coral Springs.

Im always down for mini meets =) its been a while since we had one. I know Ty mention one before a month ago or so. It never went off cause there were to many prior engagements that couldnt be broken.

Hi, welcome to head-fi.

We used to have mini-meets all the time, but that was before jp11801 abandoned us for CA. mrarroyo, vorlon1 and I have gotten together a few times recently, and tyrion has tried to put a couple things together, but timing has been a bit off and CanJam planning has recently gotten in the way. I'm sure we'll all need a bit of a rest after CanJam, but S. Florida is a pretty active group of friends and another meet will happen. Keep your eye on the meet forum section of this website.

Congrats on new arrival. If at all possible, it would be great if you could even spare a couple hours to check things out and introduce yourself to everyone. There won't be another meet like CanJam around these parts, at least not for a very long time.
