That's right folks, it's a new year and that means more Can Con! 


 


This is the 6th year running and we want it to be better than the last.

This year's Can Con event is again only possible to the tireless efforts of pkwak.



Please register your interest here in this thread, say 'Yes' if you are attending and with/without the gear that you will be bringing.

=====================================

Where: Epping Creative Centre (at 26 Stanley Road, Epping) in the Ron Mathews Room

When: 27th Feburary at 10.30am till 6pm

Price: There will be a cost of $20 per person for the meet which covers venue as well as food and drinks (pizza, chips, cake).



To save time on registration and please bring a piece of paper with your name, address, headfi id and phone number with you.

If you do not have headfi id, then put the id of the headfi member who introduced you followed by '+ 1'.

======================================

I'll post the rules again but remember just be sensible and you'll be fine:




1. I'll contact the pre-registered attendees to get the Name, Address, Email, Contact number.


2. At the meet, you would be required to provide a valid photo id when registering at the registration table. Your valid photo id will be cross checked with the details provided prior to the meet. (the info aside from your name and forum id will be burnt within a few days of the meet). For vendors - you can give them your details if you wish separately?


3. You should bring an extension cord or power board if you can (along with other cables necessary for your setup)


4. Please be careful and respect other member`s properties, ask before you pull a phone out of a plug – some amps if they are not powered down before inserting or pulling out a jack have the potential to blow. Again be very careful.


5. Be on the watch out for power cords and headphone cable on the floor and tables, you can easily knock over equipment, or hurt yourself – if this is your first meet be weary the floor will be littered with cable.


6. Please restrict consumption of food or drinks to the designated place ONLY and place all rubbish in the plastic bags provided. PLEASE also wash your hands if it is dirty before touching anything.


7. No wet hair, or put anything in their hair at all (e.g. wax, gel, mousse etc) (Will be refused entry). Strong aftershave or deodorant are also not good. Also, clean in and around your ears. Nobody wants their cans covered with earwax.


8. No need to panic or spoil the mood (it's unlikely I'll run off with your 10kg amp) - but leaving keys, wallets or expensive IEMs unattended might not be a good idea


9. You must wear the name tag at all times.

Jack-a-lopes wearing Sennheisers ?
 
All y'all silly buggers.
 
I will give you that y'all are better Educated than us isolationists here in the States ( for the most part ) and I do admire you for trying to keep up.  I also rather admire that Burson stuff but I'm still a bit mad about your Robbie Mckewen stealing so many Sprints at the Tour de France.
 
I'm gonna be watching those Snaps of your little Meet, I'll be poking you with a sharp stick about anything 'Off' that I might notice.  
 
We tried selling one of your Holden Cars as a GTO but it didn't work out well for us, it was one hell of a Car but falls into the category of Great Dog Food that the Dogs would'nt eat,  sorry, we tried, you have to give us that.  
 
Don't expect me to show up, far too many poisenous snakes and what-not, my wife would'nt leave the Hotel Room.

ps.  I expect to see plenty of Beats stuff, you lads are rather at that level, aren't you?

I'm gonna say a preemptive yes.

Can bring Augio-GD NFB-15 and the FLC8S are the biggest mentions. And other things like the VE RunAbout amp, VE Zen 1.0 and 2.0.

I've got the new Jays Q-Jays and DUNU Titan 5 but they will either be on an Aussie tour or on loan at the time.

I should be able to attend. Nothing really new at my end:

HD 800
AudioGD Master 6
AudioGD NFB7
Bel Canto Reflink
Sony ZX2
Westone W4
Some nice cables for the HD 800

Very interested in the HD 800S... I will probably have one by the meet if it sounds half decent.

I look forward to seeing everyone
