yeah I wish it was longer too but beggars can't be choosers. I already glad that we can actually have an event after 4 years. Maybe Brian will be having such a good time that he'll extend his welcome. Who knows. Anyway, I made an edit to the OP. Basically we need some tables and on the safe side bring a power strip for your equipment. It's better to be safe than sorry. So whoever has a vehicle that can carry a table and has one available, please bring it so we can put our equipment on a table instead of the ground. Thanks!
I have some 4 foot banquet tables. I cna try to bring one. I was going to come straight from SA to the meet, but I'm trying to get in Friday to get my new stuff, get prepared, and bring a table.
Well bummer I was hoping to listen to lcd-2's and hd800's, but no big deal congrats on the sell.
quietly wondering what amps runeight will be bringing. just realized this but for about the past year i always said it in my head as rune eight hahaha (even though I am interested in diy amps still would love to see which ones my ears seem to like)
PS: anyone bringing any DIY amps, bijou, ehha, b22, etc etc? Just curious...I guess I could go look at the main page again
Looks like this is already more successful than Whetstone anticipated. Next time may need a bigger venue and I'd also suggest longer duration. Dallas meets were 9am to 5pm and the time just flew by.
Agreed. Would it be possible for people to arrive an hour or so early so we can have everything setup and ready to listen to right at 3pm to make the most of the time? 3 hours seems like a really short window for the amount and quality of gear that will be in attendance, to me anyway. I can imagine everyone there who hasn't yet heard the LCD-2 is going to want to give it some listening time among others.
It almost makes me want to suggest we work out some sort of after-meet meet somewhere if that 6pm is a hard closure. Just a thought.
Aite so I gave Brian a call and he said we'll just play it by ear. He doesn't really have a large shop and he's the only one that runs it so I totally understand his concerns. I know he doesn't want it to last forever so we should be considerate and thankful that he's already willing to open up his shop for beer. If you could, just limit to the headphones that you think others might be interested. So please use your best judgement. Picture a small starbucks and that's about the size of the shop.
Anyway, I'm pretty excited that this is happening and I hope you guys are excited too.
I'm really liking it. I actually changed the jumpers to "bright" since I noticed some missing super high frequency stuff that was bothering me (I hear like a freakin dog still... up to about 20k). It was really knocking down starting at about 16k when set on Neutral compared to my other gear (I'd guess 6+db curving upwards from 15-16k). The change seemed to bring it back up where it should be. I guess I could see why you'd want to keep it on Neutral with some brighter cans, but the HF2s seem to need it on bright. I don't think bright makes it brighter than normal, I think the jumpers add some filtering actually bringing it down a tad.
It's solid though. Very powerful and clean. The DAC works great with my speaker setup as well. Only complaint is the thing sure puts out some heat .

I for one am very excited and extremely appreciative of the kind hospitality of our host. I do however wish I knew a bit more about his particular taste in beer or stronger libations so I could bring him something I know he would enjoy for so graciously opening his shop to us.

I'll see if I can make it around 2, but I'll probably be on time at 3 with a table. Thankfully I'm not bringing any of the GOTTA TRY IT gear, but I still want to get my full time at the meet.
Perhaps my friend from Houston will join me. He may bring GS-1000 and HE-5LE with Vincent KHV-1.
Edit: He's also considering bringing his Will Vincent, no relation to the above :^ 0, Dyna 70 in triode with heaphone connections at the speaker taps.
Edit: I'll also bring my DIY (built by a friend but I have no idea what's inside except for the alps volume pot) transistor Class A hp amp. Pretty clean sounding.
