FYI, there's an unspoken tradition that there's always a hidden bottle of Scotch somewhere at a meet. And other than temporarily enhancing certain people's personalities, no lasting damage was done.
Make every day a fun day filled with music and friendship!

That's exactly what I was hoping to hear. Ima be looking for you at the meet for sure.
Hey, I had a 32-Ohm, which is supposed to be the worst of the bunch. Didn't keep me from smiling when I listened to it.
They you must come! We've got people coming down from SF - and flying in from all over the country for this. It would be a SHAME if you missed it.
YES. Bring your source, and maybe a range of interconnects, and you'll get to try out all kinds of headphones. If your source has a line out, you're definitely going to want to try some amps as well. Basically, BYOM (bring your own music) and then mind = blown. AND you'll get to meet and talk to people who UNDERSTAND exactly why all of this is important to you.
Well, if you've got something to share, definitely bring that as well. Take a look at the first post when you get a chance, to see what everyone else is bringing. If you've got something that isn't on the list, by all means bring it and share it.
That's one of the best parts of a meet. The possibility of sampling gear ahead of time will help you make good purchases and avoid bad purchases (i.e. stuff that you don't like).
Oh yeah! most people don't give the DT880s a chance and move to the darker sounding HD650s but with the right amp and modifications, many people find the DT880 to be in a league of it's own. There's a whole thread about the DT880s vs. HD650 vs. K701/2 and I always find myself leaning towards the DT880s but I'm willing to give the HD650s another chance with possibly Cardas cables. That's why I'm going to the meet and everyone is welcome to discover the magic of beyers
Uh oh. I collect single malts.

Ok, finally purchased my ticket. For some reason it felt like I already had, but didn't.
I'm still debating what I want to bring down to the meet. The full haul would be the Burson Soloist, Bottlehead Crack+Speedball, HRT Musicstreamer II and II+, Sennheiser HD650, Beyerdynamic DT880-600, Beyerdynamic DT770-80 and Denon AH-D2000 ... but I may leave some of that back.

I tried collecting them... but I think by definition that would mean I would still have them and I do not. I think I actually collect empty single malt bottles....
I'm in! Unfortunately, I'll have no equipment...I'll just be in "JAFO" listening mode.
If you had to, I'd say maybe leave the D2000 back (just because it's out of production). Then again, if you've got some crazy ass mods that make it sound amazing...
