I'm going to release my table, some circumstances dictate that I won't be bringing any equipment.

I still have member tables left. I would love to fill them up with member rigs. Anyone that is hesitating because they don't want to hassle with taking their gear with them, can ship to me and I will ship back.

Come on folks, if I'm going to ship this thing down the rest of you can bring stuff too. Here's the power supply for my new amp, all 60+ lbs of it!

I'm not sure, could either be this or the amp that Pete Millett is bringing (via Todd the Vinyl Junkie).

I'll take that as a compliment, it certainly wasn't designed to be pretty. Well, unless that's your thing, which in my case it is.

clive cussler's novel "sahara" (adapted into an awful movie as well with the guy from two for the money and penelope cruz) talks about finding this uss ironclad ship from the civil war era that apparently has some kinda treasure. it was supposed to have like 2 foot thick iron casing all around.

it was built like a tank to take on the heavy beating of the sea and also the assault of enemy forces.

/end history lesson

that psu looks like it could easily take a few dings. on a different note, you dont have to go to the gym ever do ya?

I'll be coming as an observer.. My top cans are ATH-A900s, which don't compare with what other people are bringing

I'll also not be bringing cash because it would be too tempting to buy something. On second thought, maybe the Westone reps will surprise us with some Westone 3's on discount, which would be cool. Much anticipated by head-fiers so it may be good timing!!

Well, i pulled the trigger on that upgraded Zhaolu 2.5A from the for sale forums. I was going to get a Zero dac, but then i thought to myself the Zhaolu has some nice upgrades..bypassing the caps, replaced the power caps with blackgates...has the txco clock upgraded and the opamps changed to 4562s.

Will have it by Canjam, hopefully within a few days or so.

Update: I will now be sending in my entire system for CanJam, I just got news that one of my two balanced solid-state amps is done, whoooooo! I've updated my post #2 with my full stash!

Team Florida will be welcome to my equipment while it sits at tyrion's house for 3 weeks following CanJam '08 - just please don't break anything, ok?

Too bad my other balanced amp is still in progress, that would've been even more awesome....
