It's time for another get together to listen to headphones! The date is Saturday, February 7, 2004. Start time is 1:00 PM, and we'll go until we're done.

I'll PM or e-mail directions out about a week before the meet. I'll send the directions to people who indicate in this thread that they are coming, or who contact me. E-mail is preferable so that my PM box doesn't overflow, but either will work. If using email (use the link in my profile) or PM, please use the subject line "I'm coming and I need directions"- that will help me keep organized.

I've got room for about ten to twelve people (more if they're good friends

). Please post here, or contact me directly, so that I have some idea of how many people to expect.

We're on!!!

I'll be there if there's still room and I don't get struck by lightning. Hirsch you sure do have a lot of gear! I have a much smaller, ummm, list of gear, yeah that's it, gear. I hope to bring a Benchmark DAC 1 along with my PPA and perhaps another tube amp by then. Thanks.

Plenty of room still, so please post to this thread or let me know via email if you're planning to come!

Zu Mobius just arrived for the HD-650

Incidentally, if you've got tube gear and want to check your tubes, I have a B&K 747 mutual transconductance tube tester. I'll be happy to show people how to use it

Should I bring my new p500? its pretty heavy, (though not as bad as p600 or 1000) just wondering if there is any interest in A/Bing systems with it.
