Enjoying some Junior's after getting checked in at MM. Some protracted buffoonery on the hotel's part cost me a trip to Audio46, but I met a bona fide celeb (to us, anyway) in the lobby. They shall remain nameless, lest the screaming throngs invade their privacy.

I haven't even heard the Wandla yet, and you've already improved it?! Can't wait to check it out!

Sound advice. I'll do that a little closer to the date. I'll probably go even if I can't audition them. I'm originally from VT, so to me a brick 'n' mortar audio store is like a jackalope: sure, it looks good on a t-shirt, but are they really out there?

Got my CanJam ticket, my Amtrak ticket (coming from Salem, MA), and my hotel reservation (at the Marriott Marquis). Let the countdown begin! I'm thinking of walking to Audio46 after I check in on Friday. Has anyone done this before? Is it a good way to demo some gear before the show? The...

Nice! I'd love to try out the HD800S. They're always in such high demand at CanJam. Like to talk with you a bit about the Pi DAC too. I was going to go that route before the Pi supply chain dried up.

I'll be there, and this will be my first local meetup. I was going to attend the one this past January, but an illness in the family kept me away. Here's what I plan to bring: Headphones: ZMF Auteur Classic, Sennheiser HD-6XX, Hifiman HE400i. IEMs: Moondrop S8, Final Audio A4000. DACs/amps...

Eh, what the hell. It came out to, I think, $9.84 USD on Ali Express after tax w/free shipping, so I pulled the trigger. It's scheduled to arrive in early March, so I'll let you know what I think in about a month. I'm hoping to use it mainly with Foobar2000. Ideally I'd like to use the dial...

I'll be at CanJam NYC on Sunday. This will be my 2nd. I attended the full weekend at Chicago 2022, and walked away with the ZMF Auteur Classic. (This time I can only convince my girlfriend to go one day. For some reason she wants to visit her mother.) My main priority this time is to demo...

With great sadness I have to bow out of this meet. I've changed my vote to "maybe", but I know I won't be able to make it. My father is on hospice care and his health is failing, so I need to be with my family in this sad time. Hopefully I'll get to meet some of you at CanJam next month...

I'm very interested in reviewing these, and will agree with the terms and conditions.
