I will definitely be attending.

I will arrive at SNA airport at 12:47 pm (scheduled), and have to catch a 7:15 pm flight back out the same day.

If anyone is available to give a ride (even if it is only 1-way) saving the cash on a rental car so that I can afford a new pair of UE canalphones would be most appreciated!

I will bring my Rio Karma, loaded with lossless FLAC files I ripped using EAC. In other owrds, not just "CD quality", but bit-for-bit perfect copies. Mostly Jazz, guitar, and blues tunes.

Thanks!

Speaking of the after-party, response has been a bit sketchy, and I don't really have enough information to do a full scale meeting. That said, I would still like to move forward, so we'll make it an informal bring-what-you-got affair. Please include a folding table and power strip if possible.

Jetlag, depending on my workload that day, I *might* be able to pick you up from the airport. Let me see how the rest of the week goes.

Countdown... 3 days to go

hmm, i'll bring my ipod and hd555? not that people would want to listen to it since u guys got way better headphones =D. But i gotta bring my ipod to UE since I want to test their super.fi out with my own souce.

Can someone bring a portable amp (like a go-vibe) so I can test it out with the HD555? I'm looking to buy the go vibe and this would help greatly.

I'll have a Meier Porta Corda MkII with me. Don't know how it compares with the Go Vibe, though.

That's the plan, at this point. Not sure how much gear we'll have, but as I mentioned above, try to bring a folding table (chairs?), and power strip. Wide, flat, empty surfaces are limited at the house, and are indicated by the red circles in this amazingly photorealistic rendering...

Likely yes, but I've been living on borrowed time for a while now

If things don't work out, I can pick up Jetlag or anyone else from the airport that afternoon (I get out of class at 12). Just to be 100% sure, SNA = John Wayne?

Also, if any Head-Fi'ers want to kill some time in the hours leading up to the tour, whether it's hanging out at the Spectrum or having a mini-meet in the area to warm up the ears, I'll most likely be down for it. Shoot me a PM.

UE-10's already?! We might have mentioned this before, but you need a name change ASAP!

Thanks for the ride offers, I'll PM you later with flight time details/cell number, etc. so it makes pickup easier. I have limited time, so will only be popping in for the tour then have to head right back home.

I have actually spoke with Mike D in the past about an order but was hesitant buying without a demo or tril fit. This will take care of both most likely.

Good deal, we'll see you there
