I have a request.
Whilst I love my T5P's I find their cable a little too flimsy. I carry my headphones everywhere with me and would love two things.
1) Is there a chance somebody could re-cable them on the day? Would be cool. I have seen that in America you can get re-cabled T5P's, but I have not seen this in the UK?
2) Beyerdtnamic no longer sell them with that rather cool looking molded pouch, instead you get a flimsy cloth bag - utterly rubbish for portable headphones. Can anybody provide T5P cases?
I would of course pay for any of this :-)
Would be cool to have a 'cabling workshop'

We haven't anyone specifically from the trade that can help out at the moment - Toxic Cables may or may not attend dependent on how busy Frank is, hopefully he can. Perhaps someone else can help out.

If you want to lessesn the load you don't have to bring your M51 as I'm bringing mine in - it's a heavy beast!

Very excited to attend this, looking forward to trying some gear. Is anyone bringing a tera player? would love the chance to audition one. Was hoping someone would be able to re-terminate my Whiplash hybrid to an RSA connector (I have the connector) but apparently Frank and Custom cables wont do that, pity. Maybe someone will bring a soldering iron and some expertise!

Howdy folks
Can someone fill me in on the format of the London meet?
I am delighted to bring my kit for others to try but would not want to be tied to a table all afternoon demoing it. I want to be able to meet others and hear their kit too. 
Cheers, Julian
ps - there is a great hifi show going on tomorrow at Scalford, near Melton Mowbray, the HiFi Wigwam Pie Show. Loads of hifi and loads of great people to meet, so if you can, drop in for a mooch! There might even be a few headphone rigs knocking about too, there was a couple last year.
