Oh hell yes!

 

So, will 32 Ohm Audio be hosting the event again?

 

Also, we now have a local custom IEM company:

alrighty..let s get moving on this..seems there is a clubhouse in the place i will be moving into and they rent it out for about 75$ or so..will find out more details this weekend. But this could be an excellent venue option. I can also look into booking the hillsboro library meeting rooms.

 

Shall we shoot for the 29th/30th of Jan? How does that sound? THose interested ..please give a shout out if you have any suggestions with regards to whether the 29th/30th of Jan works for you

Let me know...if not, thats ok...can see you at the March meet...or head down to Portland anyway and spend some time at ALO.  I have a broken (left side is dead) pair of brand new Ultrasone 650s.  I never returned for warranty replacement and maybe Ken can fix it....then I can sell it or have it recabled since I hear that the Ultrasone 780s are in high demand as the poor man's (me..me...me...) substitute for the Ed 8s....

 

So if you do have a meet...I could hit two birds with one stone...have fun both ways...but if life is busy..no pressure, Sachu.

as someone newish to portland and head-fi, i'd love to be included in a PDX meet.  i don't have much to bring other than my lowly MS1i.  probably near future will be getting HD 600.

sachu - your collection is insane!  any chance you don't feel the need to have two HD 580s?  im looking for the next headphone that betters my HD 595 that I will be ridding of soon.

That would be awesome! I would love to bring my HE-6, unfortunately I only have an EF-5 to power it. I'm waiting on the EF-6 and Lyr.

No worries, i will have the liquid GOld running hopefully by then to power the HE-6s, or if my EHHA is still hasn't sold, that should easily do the job by putting out 5 watts into 50 ohms. :) Damn excited to check out the HE-6 actually ..i'll have a TP, my wharfedale ID1s, and LCD-2 with ALO cable.
