It's climate controlled and has mains power too. Though no squatting is allowed. :wink:


Has the lock up got electric or do I need to bring my own generator? I have a great sleeping bag so that's all sorted

Definitely adding this date to my calendar! Cambridge 2015 was awesome, and one of the best event t-shirts I've seen.
 
Headphones I'll be bringing:
HE-6 (unmodded, with a toxic silver poison cable and possibly comfier earpads)
HD650
Shure SRH1540
Shure SE846 (all three filters)
 
Source:
Questyle QP1R - I don't own any DSD tracks but I've been told the QP1R's DSD playback is exceptional. If you bring your DSD tracks on a micro SD card you can just plug that in and give it a try
 
Not sure anyone cares too much about hearing a Schiit Valhalla 2 and Bifrost with none of the extras?

I'd love to hear other people's Schitt. ...it's why Iam coming..:laughing:

From following a CA thread and getting a UK version of balanced Iso trans...
Reading around people have tried different versions around the world over the years... What brought it to life was a DC offset bias filter....
My bargin of the year....

Now no low level hum off the airlink and much better sound.....
How clean your own houses electrics are I don't know so improvements always depend on personal circumstances...
I am just an inexperienced bloke no electronics wizz or audiophile expert...

But this chain can be used on anyone's kit so now I hope I can add some benefit to you gents rather than hogging your gear....and stealing the best ideas...

I imagine a few people lists will change by the time we get to April...

Maybe we could ask the nice folks at Electromod / Schiit EU to attend? Otherwise I'll look into bringing my rig.
