Hey folks! 10 days until the meet. @swich401 and I met this evening to talk about logistics and such. Stay tuned for an update from him with reminders and some "best practice" rules for the day. We're both really stoked about the gear and people coming. Let us know if you have questions about things to bring or anything else. See you on the 31st!

I'm in
 
I can bring:
Hifiman HE500
AKG K7XX bass port mod
Vmoda M100
Gustard H10 - awesome with planars....
X5 for dac
Westone Pro50 - bring your own tips of course
 
I would be very interested in how the H10 sounds with EL8/LCD2/LCD3 if anyone wants to try theirs out with it. Not sure I can bring it all, so if anyone wants to try anything in particular let me know.

Yeah cool. Looking forward to hearing the Gustard with my lcd3's.

Good news everyone!

 
 
I got word back from the U of C that they can extend the amount of time that we are getting the room for. We now have the room available until 7pm!

Nicely done, @swich401! With all that gear, we're going to need the time.

  Not until today innerfidelity clarified that A17's output impedence is roughly 3 ohm did I realize why my Angie sounded so veiled out of A17, damn it... So possibly I'll just try to sell/trade the A17 or to get a good portable amp (A17's battery life is phenomenal, which is a huge pro for me). Now I'm very interested in trying out the portable amps on the meet!

TRY THE OPPO HA-2

Thanks, already got the newer ALO Rx though. If you could bring a HA-2 to the meet I'm very intrigued to try it out!
