By the way, room 5 is upstairs on the West end of the building. There is an elevator for those of you bringing heavy/bulky equipment. I can bring a few things which are probably well under the quality threshold you guys are used to, but maybe interesting just for comparison's sake or to satisfy...

Great time! Now looking through the list on page 1 to jog my memory and see if I can remember all the headphones I got to listen to. Thank you all for the generous use of your equipment and dispensing of opinions and advice!

@driguy : on the most basic level I would like to plug someone else's headphones into my pc since that's how I listen to music. I am curious to compare the quality of sound I get by using different headphones on the same source (Spotify on my laptop) and I am also curious about DACs and what...

general question about listening: I stream Spotify. If I make my playlists available off-line can I just bring my laptop and plug other people's headphones into or do I need a different way to bring my own music to play it on other people's equipment? Also we'll probably get there around 12:30...

Awesome, yes, let's set up those expectations for a few years down the road! :thumbsup:

OK guys, when we come on Saturday can you all talk about how it's totally reasonable to spend $300-$500 on headphones and subliminally convince my husband? He doesn't seem to share my enthusiasm for spending money on aural enjoyment and I'm ready for an upgrade. :smile:

OOH, glad I checked in here today. I'll pencil in March 17th. We'll see about getting a babysitter so hubby can partake as well (instead of sending him off into the library like last time...)

So glad I came today and got to listen to the different headphones. Thank you everyone for so generously sharing your gear and your expertise. My ears have been spoiled forever. The hunt for my next pair of headphones begins...

Hello all, Sorry, I am only just now checking back in on this thread. Still planning on coming though not sure when and for how long. As a side note to the library card issue: You may want to consider North Domingo Baca as a possible future venue. Requires a membership to reserve a room but it's...

Hello, I made an account just so I could reply to this thread. I have a budding interest in this as a hobby and am curious to hear different headphones and learn about all the terminology, equipment set-up etc. Is it ok for me to show up with nothing to share and just come and listen and compare?
