So I'll be definitely bringing Audeze LCD-MX4 and Sennheiser HD800S.

I will also bring three different pairs of headphones that I'll have up for sale... 2 are currently up for sale on the classifieds section.

ZMF Atticus, Mr. Speakers (DCA) Alpha Prime, and Sennheiser Momentum Red Bull edition.

As far as source and amp goes, I'll bring some DIY amps and a Raspberry Pi based DAC of some sort -

DAC is a ESS Sabre ES9028Q2M based DAC that shares some components in this video - - this all runs off a Raspberry Pi as transport.

HeadWatt 6DJ8 - https://diyaudioprojects.com/Tubes/6DJ8-Tube-Headphone-Amp/

Krell KSA-5 clone - https://solderworksaudio.wordpress.com/krell-ksa-5-klone/ - this is someone elses build, but you get the idea.

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.

Most definitely. That's why I'm bringing it... to give a little bit of a show and tell.

Damn, I just saw this, and I'm in NJ/NYC. Always wanted to attend one of these meetups. Unfortunately, all I have to bring at the moment is an Audio-GD r2r-11mk2 (and JDS El Stack II, if anyone is interested). Been selling stuff without buying new stuff for the last year or so.

Is it too late to register? Might make a decision by Wednesday or so.

No issues signing up at this point. Please vote by Wednesday. I'm going to place the order for food no later than Thursday. Hope to see you there.

All the Schiit has arrived!!! I ended up receiving some headphones from Schiit after all. Audeze LCD-GX, HD800 (original) and a closed back ZMF (Verite Closed I think).

Incidentally, since someone is bringing an Auteur Classic, I can bring my OG Auteurs for comparison

I'm sorry I'm still not 100% sure if i can make it. I won't know until Friday.

I voted maybe, but it's not necessary to order food for me if thats the concern. Thanks.

Why hello there. :raised_hand:

And I also don't think I'll be going to this one. Just too last minute for me and I had some tentative weekend plans I don't want to bail on.

Next time! =)

Looking forward to Saturday. Just decided to bring a speaker amp in place of the Flux FA-12 since speaker amps are how I listen to headphones for the most part. Will be the Firstwatt SIT-3.

I'll have Urd so feel free to bring any CDs you want to try and I might have a Modhouse Tungsten with me if that arrives in time.

Looks like at least one maybe two other people bringing the BHC so I think I will pair down to the Airmid, Aegis and Schiit coasters for amps. Will bring some unicorn tubes/adaptors for the BHC as it shares tubes with the Airmid :) So much amazing gear I am looking forward to listening to!

Less than two days away!!! Please update your vote if you are listed as maybe. I'm placing the food order early this afternoon.

Can't wait! See you guys soon!

I have the following things I could bring, but am not planning on bringing unless someone wants to hear them, so lemme know if there's interest:
Decware CSP325 Preamp (https://www.decware.com/newsite/CSP325.html)
Decware SEUFO84 25th Anniversary Amp (https://www.decwareproducts.com/se84ufo25)
Schiit Freya+/Loki Max/Aegir
RME ADI2-DAC FS (https://www.rme-audio.de/adi-2-dac.html)
Analog Ethos Legendarium that I built from a kit (https://www.analogethos.com/legendarium-kit)

My setup is mostly speaker amp focused, but I guess the RME does have well-regarded headphone outs on it. So yeah, if you wanna hear any of that, lemme know otherwise I won't bother!
