Wow, it's great to have a corporate sponser that supports the meetings that way. That's one impressive list of equipment!

Hmm.. I've got Monster Cable for interconnects.. *cough*.. *cough*... (ego slowly shrinking...)

Hey, thanks for getting those cables, they will be a most welcome addition to our meet.
Best,
Bob

 

[gswpete]

Ugh...I can't make it to this meet. Maybe next time. You guys have fun

 

[shafu]

Looks like I will be able to attend as well. I can bring the stuff I posted earlier in this thread.

I can also provide a ride for anyone in the Mountain View area - just let me know. I'll confirm 100% by Sunday (at about 90% right now).

 

[morsel]

I'm still waiting for confirmation from Kurt. He hopes to know by Monday if he can come.

Thanks for hosting Bob, but I don't think I can make this one.

Dang, I really wanted to check out the CD3000s and HD650s. As well as general meeting and greeting and head-fi talkin'

As I noted earlier in this thread, if there are any new members who can't make the meet but want to see my limited gear, drop me a PM, I'd be happy to show it to you. I'm on Berkeley southside, 'bout 4 blocks from campus.

 

[drewski]

Sorry gang, but I can't make it because I have to work. The poor job market of 2002 rendered me a worker bee and my boss is an idiot sometimes. She's stretching out a project that I can finish in a few weeks into a month long project.

Have a great time- take lots of pics!

 

[JMT]

Thanks Bob, for the heads-up. Unfortunately the in-laws will be in town that weekend and........

I'll be attending and coming from Mountain View if anyone needs/wants a ride (Morsel?). Also, I have a bunch of audio magazines I picked up from H_Man a couple of months ago. Any one interested? I can bring them to the meet.

Details:
"Stereophile Vol 20 no9 - Vol26 no4 (current)
Home Theater Magazine Jan 97- Jan 2003
Stereophile Guide to Home Theater, no 11,13-17, 21-63 (current)
I also have about a year of The Absolute Sound and Audio from maybe 1999"

 

[morsel]

Hi Shafu, thanks for the ride offer. Kurt just told me he is coming, so I will be going with him.

 

[Stoney]

To test the Blockhead, we will need to have a source with balanced outputs. Or, we need adapters from unbalanced to balanced. Does anyone have either of these to bring?

For the newcomers to the thread, we are discussing an San Francisco Bay Area meeting, scheduled for November 30 at noon in Oakland. Details are somewhere on this page, I think: Head-Fi - Bay Area meeting coming up. A few manufacturers are loaning us equipment to test. I have been shipped the Headphone assortment.

 

[gpalmer]

I have the Wadia 830, caliguy has a Meridian if he comes and brings it. I thought you had a balanced source also Stoney. The more the merrier from my point of view since I'm looking for a more synergistic combination for the Gilmore balanced.

EDIT - Speeling!

Sounds like there'll be several - but will there be enough balanced interconnects?

edit, guess that was answered while i was typing
