Getting excited for this meet! My question is, it looks like there is a 40% chance of showers that day so do we have a covered unloading area? Finally, Table space, what space is available. Sadly I don't have a table that I can bring with me >.> so I'm hoping the School has some that we can use, though the size of them would be helpful.

I cannot guarantee a covered unloading area. I didn't think that one through. In terms of tables and chairs, we should have plenty.

That's no problem, I'll just carry some Extra Trash Bags to put over the boxes lol, I'm sure I can jerry rig up something nice. Will you also have Ample Power Strips/Surge protectors?

No, and thank you for reminding me about it!
This is my first meet planning so I don't have a checklist on what to do haha, so bare with me!

anyways: EVERYONE BRING SURGE PROTECTORS/POWER STRIPS IF YOU HAVE THEM.
Do not expect others to bring some for you to use other than mine :)

Good, I have a spare one I can pick up on my way Up. Should have grabbed it from my old house, but I wasn't thinking sadly :/

Looks like my WooAudio WA7 finally bit the dust last night. With that piece missing I won't be attending this meetup :frowning2:


My friend you don't have to bring anything to attend the meet. So long as you've a cool personality (or maybe some pizza XD) that's all I ask for. But you made it to last years meet didn't you? I believe I remember talking to you and (if memory serves) your wife about how the WA7 takes about half an hour to get going. Course I could be completely mixing up you for someone else ;P

I'm still getting used to the new format.
I attended both the Cornelius and South Charlotte versions of this meet in the "way back", IF those were the same meets that featured Joe Grado as a guest speaker.
I also remember meeting (and buying a P-51 RSA headphone amp, my first) from Ray Samuels. (Very nice guy...)

Most of my "head-fi" gear is relatively "non-exotic". I can bring a FiiO X5 II (I've got a couple of 'em) and I have a set of "Basserific" JVC headphones (from Japan) that I bought solely out of curiosity a few years ago.
I could be talked out of the JVC cans if the offer's right.

Thanks to Guilford College Radio Station for sponsoring. Recently (just for giggles) I went to Radio-Locator and searched for "Jazz" stations by format. I found (approximately) 60. Not in the SE. Not in my local (or even DX'ing) reception footprint. In the NATION.
There are (in my market) two stations that dedicate a small portion of one evening a week to it (if you're not overly critical about what "Jazz" is) so I encourage EVERYBODY to support College/Public Radio. Goes double if you can hear ACTUAL Jazz there!

(Off soapbox...)

See everybody there unless something seriously unwell takes me off the Commuter list.

Welcome to the meet my friend!!! Excited to meet your acquaintance. Also, NEVER feel bad or anything remotely negative for what gear you have. If YOU like it the who cares what anyone else thinks? Heck, I've never heard either of the gear you're bringing so I'm personally quite excited to try something new.

This gives me the chance to get my post count up to 12 in 12 years since joining.

Latest weather forecast is Sunny all day and 84 degrees.

I plan on attending the meet this Saturday. Not bringing any equipment as I will have to leave by 12:30. Scott Nixon may also be attending with me if he is feeling better from a prolonged illness. If anyone is interested, I have 32 NOS GE JAN-CG-12SN7GT tubes I can bring and sell for $7.50 each. I purchased these several years ago from a bulk pack. They have all been tested and are in boxes. PM me if you would like to see them.

Alrighty, so my wife and I are going to that burger place tomorrow night... Hops I think, does any one wish to join us?

Lastly what time is the meet? Still Starting at 8am or is it at 10am?
