Today (February 21, 2010) there was a mini meet hosted by Gary (gjkphd), and attended by Rob (vorlon1), and I (mrarroyo). I would like to start by thanking Gary for opening his home and allowing us to bring a bunch of stuff, I guess the best explanation is controlled chaos.
It was not a very planned affair but more of a lackadaisical event.
Today’s main idea was to compare the stock HiFiMAN HE5 with one recabled by Alex of APureSound. Also there was an interest to listen to the AKG K1000 via the Audio GD amp, finally I wanted to once again listen to the AKG K340 and vorlon1 brought an NOS example to the meet.
It was a lot of fun to get together with both, and the funniest thing is that I thought on how to introduced them. Well they new each other from about 28 years ago but had not kept in touch all this time, small world we live in. The joke was on me! J
I won’t have much time for detailed impressions today but at least I can start the thread and post some pictures. I almost forgot that one of the best things was seen Monty, Gary’s almost 15 year old Havanese.
