Feel free to shoot me a PM for the specific location, and also please let me know if you have any food allergies, as my wonderful wife will be cooking for everyone!
 
Also, as this is my home studio space, I will have at LEAST 8 spare channels of Black Lion source goodness to go around, just so people know from a DAC perspective.  I'll be clearing off a bunch of space on my production station ahead of time (as well as my power conditioner) so that people can set up their rigs that need to use my source around my console.

I cannot promise that I can make it, but I would like to stop by to say hello to a few old friends. Not sure if anything in my rig will interest anyone, but I can bring whatever if someone wants to hear it. First 4 people on the attendance list can vouch for me not being a complete douche

 

[Coupe]

This is brooklyn.  You know what we do to douches

 

[xtcriott]

@MrSlacker: I would not be opposed to giving your D5000 a listen to, been thinking about going that route myself.

 

[SolidVictory]

Would love to come if the attendance list is not full already.
 
I can bring:
 
AKG K702
RSA Hornet
Cowon S9
JH16's (can try to do a universal mod with foam tips if we can't get the universal JH16).

Doubt it's going to sway you towards the LCD-2 anyway.

That would be awesome, any chance you could bring your SM3s too?

when did they change the driver and how does it differ from the lcd2? should it be called an lcd3 or is it too small a change for that?

Hey Dave, they announced the change this weekend.
 
Changes are outlined in their blog post:

Does the sonic signature change ?
Revision 2 transducer has the same mechanical construction as original transducer, but uses newly developed, thinner and more reliable diaphragm material. Overall sound signature remains similar. Low frequencies stay flat, but are tighter and even more extended (flat to 5 Hz), midrange is smoother and more transparent, while high frequencies are more extended, detailed and more pronounced. With Rev.2 we are addressing concerns of many customers who feel that original LCD2 has darker high frequency signature than many top of the line headphones.
 
While overall sonic signature remains similar, new revision provides substantial improvement in sound quality (this is no hyperbole), sound resolution and especially imaging, which is wider, more stable and 3 dimensional. If you loved the LCD-2 sonic signature, you will like the new one even more.

 
More details here.

I'll be in the area, coming all the way up from San Diego and staying in Manhattan.  I won't have any gear sans maybe one of my Edition 8s.  But I can't say any more than a maybe as I'll have friends with me I'm not sure exactly what our plans may be.

 

[jpelg]

I can bring my Touch with some lossless & hi-res playable with FLAC Player, RSA Protector, & iStreamer (and possibly a battery power supply if I can source one soon).
 
Would love to hear the Ultrasone Edition 10's, and/or a pair of Sony MDR-F1's, if anyone is capable & so inclined.
 
I can also confirm that Mr Slacker is only a partial douch.
