Oh good, then I don't have to lug mine up.  And I too would like to make the comparison.

Never hurts to have more than one, especially when the rest of the system is so different.

Heh, I never have a system with me just because I'm still slowly piecing all of it together--just a bunch of DIY stuff.  I usually bring it to listen to Kerry's amps since they always sound great.

But I guess I'll bring it so more people can check out SR007MK1s.

I have this awful feeling that I'm going to have to work that day since I've been at work the last couple of Saturdays after being on a rotating schedule of every other Saturday.

What time do things usually slow down and the auction starts? I might be able to get there at 4pm at the earliest if I work which means I can't bring anything really.

Hi Aaron, I'm assuming your the one running this site. I just recently registered and I'm planning on attending the March meet. I have been lurking here as well as some other audio sites for some time. I'm getting back into the game after many years and want to update my gear. I don't know if I will be posting much or not, but am really looking forward to the meet and getting some good advice on new gear. Thanks, Howard

If we're going by last time, I think 4pm was about when the auction went, but it kept going for a while last time.  There's also the dinner afterwards and that's great, just most of the gear will have already been packed away by that time

So when would be a good time to get there to try headphones out? I'm still seeing if I can work around going to lab, or if I need to wait until the fall...

Early is better.  I know some people get there before 10 just to start setting things up and helping out.  I've been meaning to be one of those people but suffer from chronic tardiness.  I got there around 12 or 1pm last time and felt like I had plenty of time to get to listen to quite a few headphones and of course spend some time talking to the other head-fi members.

But as I said, earlier is better.  And though I might have been fine with just a few hours, there were quite a few headphones I didn't listen to that I wanted to listen to and can there really be too much time for headphones?

Will someone have the ATH-M50?

I will try to make it this time :)

Sure, I'll bring a pair.

Can anyone bring a DT880/600? I've been wanting to hear one and I'll find out soon if I'm working or not that day. I really hope I can not work since that's the day I should have off but you never know.

I'm looking forward to it and will be quite disappointed if I am unable to make it since it's fairly close to me.

 Hope to hear some tube amps :)   Man, I've been out of it, I have no clue about all the new can models you guys are referring to. 

will anyone bring a pair of Fischer FA-003s?
