    Music City Meet, Nashville Fall 2016 -- Pictures and Impressions Thread

    Well, I logged on (insanely belatedly, granted) to say that I've basically had everything I've tried to get venue-wise fall through on me, and it looks like you guys have already jumped all over it! I haven't had a chance to actually read this thread yet (or the other meet thread, I assume there...

    Hey, that is awesome, man-- congrats!! And yeah, I hope we didn't wig out your son by throwing so much gear at him, but he seemed like a cool guy too.    And hey, the Ether C is still YOUR fault, buddy... Don't think I've forgotten!! ;)

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Spring 2016 -- Pictures & Impressions Thread

      No problem Jay, it happens to the best of us. I was actually really wiped out after the meet this time around, not sure why. Sure hope you can make the Fall meet though, bro ;)     I heartily second each of these thoughts. Plus, as much as it would probably be a terrible idea for my...

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Nashville, TN -- Spring 2016 (April 9, 2016)

    My wallet narrowly escaped the WA8 assault... After getting some undistracted time with that bad boy, I tossed and turned all night, and finally convinced myself (by repeatedly pointing out that I don't actually have that money to blow on fun audio toys at the moment) to pass on buying it.  But...

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Spring 2016 -- Pictures & Impressions Thread

    Still trying to reassemble everything (after being a TOTAL slug for the majority of the day-- although I did get everything dusted and wiped down, thankfully). Thought I'd share a couple of quick, wildly disorganized thoughts (some typed before coffee, and others after beer, so... yeah):    As...

    Pictures & Impressions Thread is live!!   Thanks again to everybody who made it, and even to those who didn't but were there in spirit-- manly bearded hugs to all of you!!   I'll be on here again tomorrow... For tonight, my butt is parking on the couch long enough to have a glass of wine and...

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Spring 2016 -- Pictures & Impressions Thread

    Back home after a great day and a few great beers after the meet with @kilkil and @Oteil. Had an awesome time, and will have some thoughts and impressions to share when I'm not totally wiped out ;).    So: how was the meet? Was there anything there you were particularly impressed by? Anything...

    Overestimated the rapidity of my last errand and underestimated traffic. Be about 5:45 before I'm there. Don't drink all the beer. Srsly.

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Nashville, TN -- Spring 2016 (April 9, 2016)

      CDs? Whassat? ;)   I'll try to remember to bring some of those old silver discs with me... Most of the stuff I have left after getting almost everything stolen a few years ago is obscure metal albums or something that is probably roughly equal in appeal for most people, so I doubt anybody...

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Nashville, TN -- Spring 2016 (April 9, 2016)

      Completely reasonable question, and although I brainfarted away my opportunity to actually test the connection while I was there, they do apparently have wifi available. (The same building also houses a public library that supplies it, I believe). If what you need is just a router and not a...

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Nashville, TN -- Spring 2016 (April 9, 2016)

      Fair enough. I keep thinking Questyle will eventually come out with a proper one-box solution with a 4-pin XLR out, but thus far they've proved resistant to my predictions. Still looking forward to finally hearing one of these bad boys...     Duly updated, sir! It kind of seems like the...

    Apologies for the delayed reply. Thanks for the heads-up, I'll take a look at that link again!

      I have managed to miss listening to the Questyles at the last two meets somehow, and every time I've kicked myself. I really want to check them out, and it sounds like I'll have to slot some time for yours this time around. Just out of curiosity, have you heard any of the Bakoon current mode...

      Very interested in hearing your thoughts. Looks like a very trick bit of kit for sure!      Get rid of 'em?? You kidding me?? :p   Nah, listening to them right now, actually. Contemplating another big gear selloff, but I don't think the Ethers could leave my collection anytime soon. I...

    BOOM! Venue locked in-- I'll post details tomorrow, but suffice to say it's significantly larger than anything else we've tried, and also quite different. Interested to see how it goes!   Totally pooped, and heading to bed at the moment-- I'll reply to everybody tomorrow!    Btw, finally...

    Music City Meet, Volume 5 -- Nashville, TN -- Spring 2016 (April 9, 2016)

      Arrgh, if only it had a better (full Android) interface... I ended up going with the DP-X1 figuring it probably lagged behind the Questyle in sound quality (and I assume it does), but it just ticked all my boxes other than that. And it does sound great! It'll be interesting to compare the two...

    @urbino: Hope you can make it, man! I think everybody else did a better job of answering your questions than I could, but if you think of anything else, don't hesitate to ask! In general, we're a friendly bunch-- as long as you aren't around Kevin (Wildcatsare1) and I talking smack about...

    Anybody Create a 501c3 for Their Meet?

    I am attempting to research creating a 501c3 for the Music City Meet in Nashville, and as this is wildly outside my core competencies, I thought I'd throw out the question to the masses and see if anyone can assist. My primary motivation at this point in considering a 501c3 is that we would gain...

    ONKYO DP-X1 | Dual Sabre Dacs | Balanced | Sabre BTL Amp | MQA | DSD 256 | Android 5 |

    I think it is nearly perfect. Very smooth with very small volume adjustments easily done. There is a slight delay between physically moving the control and the actual volume change, but it's small enough to be a non-issue (for me at least). No complaints here.

    Music City Meet - Fall 2015 - Pictures & Impressions Thread

      Are you kidding me... That is exactly the amplifier I had in mind as a potential 'close it down, my headphone amp days are officially over' piece. No, you certainly aren't stepping on anybody's toes-- in fact, I'd say there will be more than enough interest in the Cavallis to keep as many of...
