Hey all, just a heads up I am still working on getting this meet set up. I still need to set a location. I'm making some calls tomorrow looking for somewhere. If anyone has any recommendations, let me know.

I've created a new thread for Jan. 9, location TBD. Please reply there if you plan on attending.

TIME AND DATE: Jan 9 11am - 6pm PLACE: TBD If you plan on attending, please include the gear you plan on bringing and how much space you will be needing. I will be updating this initial post with people/gear as they confirm. Headphones: AKG K-240DF AKG K-701 AKG K-702 AKG...

If no one objects, I'd like to take over the coordination. I would be setting it up for the weekend of Jan. 9 - 10. How many people can do that? Which day would you prefer? If you are coming, please indicate from what area so i can see about finding a venue central to everyone.

Somethings come up at work, so I'm going to be late, and unfortunately not bringing everything i originally listed. I'll see you all there whenever I can.

Hehe, yea. I'm in LA for work for the foreseeable future. Prolly should just change my location, which I'll do now.

Just became the proud new owner of some HF-1s so I'll have that to bring as well

I'd love to go, but like others it depends on the date.

Turns out I'll be bringing some of my equipment from home, so I should also have: DAC/Amp: Beresford TC-7510 Portable Amp: Meier HEADSIX, old Headroom amp (Haven't used it in a long time, I'll update this to specify model when I get it from home) Headphone: SR-60 Source: Creative Zen...

You can count me in. Don't have much but I'll bring along what I have: DAC - Predator Phones: Koss PortaPro, Darth Beyers(80ohm)

So like Dread, works beckons me so I'll only be able to make the main event on Sat. Looking forward to it!

Bah, there's nothing quite as liberating as not caring about your freedom.

I'm definitely in. I haven't been paying too much attention to the thread, but other than the official meet from 1pm to 6pm on Sat., there anything else planned?

Just noticed this meet, and am totally down. Don't have much equipment to contribute, but I'd be more than glad to bring. [Edit] Well, I Would bring my few things, but after reading through this entire thread, I fear i may spend more time bowing to all the Other equipment that's making its...

I'm actually in a similar situation as you, both that I'm flying round trip across the USA every couple weeks and owning a Creative Zen Vision:M. I would Strongly recommend an IEM due to the higher sound isolation. It makes listening to music much more enjoyable. I use ER-4p's unamped, but I do...

I just spoke with Todd for TTVJ and he says that normally only 1 coupon/rebate code is allowed per order. However, you can stack the $10 your first order with any other rebate. Just mention the first-time discount in the comments section of the order.

Great question, I was actually planning on getting one of these two as well. I have a HEADSIX coming to me, and not to jack the OP's thread, but which would people choose amped? I'm also planning on doing a long-term review of the 5 or so different varieties of foam there are to choose from.
