Quick responses, quick shipment, and well packed. Everything arrived in like new condition as advertised. Thanks again!

Been a Grado fan for years. Just sent off a pair of HF2s and HF3s for service (HF2s seem to have a wiring issue that creeped up after 10 years. The HF3s I bought used and I think someone yanked them apart at some point. The left channel went silent). And as I was doing that I was reminded...

Old school head-fier here but haven't been around much for a while. Just recently found out the HF3 was a thing (not sure how I didn't even notice it from afar, but it happened). I snagged a complete pair from Audiogon this week which arrived yesterday. Found enough joy in my setups that I...

I'd been hearing about these things for a while but every time I checked they weren't available.  Finally in late July they were... I jumped on it and ordered 3 pairs (one with the ex-pack).  Finally got them a week or so ago after some delivery issues through customs that we were nicely...

Not that I expect it to matter much from past meets, but I probably won't be there until between 10-11 due to kids sports stuff in the morning.  Just hold my table spot (I won't be bringing the turntable or sacd deck since I can't fit it into one box), I only need 3-4 feet of space.     Oh and...

Debating pretty hard about bringing the turntable and sacd player since it basically adds a second or third carry trip, the rest will fit in one plastic container.  Anyone dying to hear vinyl or want to bring vinyl/cds/sacds to spin?  If not I'll just bring the digital stuff.

Heck yes I should be there.  Always love these events.     I noticed a couple of my shots in the banner on the main post.  I'll bring a camera again and try to get more pictures than I did last time.       ---Gear--- Amps/DAC: Audio-gd Compass (dac/amp), Oppo HA-2 (dac/amp), maybe my...

I'd be interested.  I've been to all of them I believe.  The last one was quite big and probably got a bit unwieldy for Maxvla to handle by himself which is why I think he sorta put it aside for a while.  I'd be fine with a smaller more intimate one again if need be.  The big one with vendors...

Do you need a badge for that? 

More pictures.  I didn't take a ton.  I was too busy listening, sharing, and chatting.     Full set...  http://www.flickr.com/photos/dan1son/sets/72157639992455935/ Full set...  http://www.flickr.com/photos/dan1son/sets/72157639992455935/   Other than that I was lucky enough to be sat...

Yeah.  I don't have any discs is the problem.  I bought a sony DVD player a long time ago that plays SACD and have never popped an SACD into it.  Just sort of curious.  Not expecting revelations, but maybe someone will bring some SACDs I'm familiar with to throw in there. 

I'm packed up as well.  Grabbed far more stuff than I anticipated originally since I had a full table.  Grabbed both full kits (work and home) and even brought a CDP/sacd (maybe someone has some?) and some cds.  No vinyl this year though.  That'd be quite the chore at the moment.  Also packed up...

Hmmm... it seems I need to check this site more than once a year.  Moved the date up 2 months :P  I might be able to make it, not sure to what capacity at the moment.  We recently moved.  I'd probably just bring a laptop, the Compass, HF-1s, and HF2s since that's generally what people seem...

Quote: Thanks man!  :)     I'm glad everyone enjoyed the pictures.  See ya next time.  

Sorry to post this here, but the impression threads are all locked for some reason. Anyway... I finally got the pics I took processed and posted. Hopefully someone enjoys them. http://www.flickr.com/photos/dan1son/sets/72157633164893589/

Sorry... my pics will take a little time.  I've been house hunting the rest of the weekend.  Haven't had the couple of hours required to process my pics before dumping them online.  I'll try to get to them early this week.     As far as headphones goes...  I'll list in order of overall...

If anyone needs a ride from North (I live in round rock) ping me in the next 3 hours and I'll be happy to pick you up.  I didn't realize there were still peeps without rides.

Good to see I won't be alone :).  I'll bring my sb800, 18-70, 35f/2 and 50f/1.4 (stuff I can fit in my small bag).  I won't be packing a tripod and if I do any video it'll be minimal.       Quote:

Oh, and since this hasn't come up yet... I'll bring my camera gear again as well.  Nikon D7000 with a flash and some lenses.

I see I'm spotted for 2 table spots.  If we really have the room I'll be more than happy to pack up my vinyl kit and spread out that extra bit, I just don't want to get my 'budgetphile' turntable in a spot someone else could use.  

Quote: I'm not listed on the gear list.  I had assumed it was just outdated.  

The turntable is minimal at best, but it does quite well considering.  It's an old Technics SL-D1 with a glass platter and a Shure M97XE cart running into an Art DJPRE II.  

Since I'm boring and don't tend to buy gear very often, I'll be bringing the same stuff I've brought to the last 2 meets.     Setup 1: Audio-GD Compass -> Grado HF2 Setup 2: Cute Fubar DAC (modified with opa627 opamps) -> DIY AC powered 'mint' style amp (with audio-gd Moon discrete...
