I agree - don't let bringing things be an issue. :) It's great to have a well-tested ear around., or just any enthusiasts to enjoy the rarity of a meet-up.
Not to speak for everyone.. but I'm all for it. :)

Looking back on the thread, looks like I forgot to mention the gear I'm bringing. It will be mostly the same as the last meet. I'll be bringing:
 
Resonessence Labs Invicta Dac
 
HD650 balanced
 
HD800 balanced
 
 
For the DAC, make sure you guys bring a standard SD cards so you can listen to your own music! or if you have a phone you can use an OTG cable to connect to the usb port.
 
 
 
@Sefu I will be bringing my HD800s, could you please bring the k812 so we could compare :D

I have kept quiet on what I will bring, it really depends on whether my friend can bring me on that day but even he can't I promise I will not disappoint, in short I am going to bring a few product that I am certain it will please few of you. 
 
If all goes well I will bring an early engineering sample of a new IEM. 
 
I'll do my best to stay as long as I can but I might not be able to stay they entire day.

By the way, for those interested in trying the MDR Z7, I came across a Sony booth at Parramatta westfield the other day, and was really surprised that they had the Z7 there, plugged to a new walkman hi-rez player ready to demo. I gave it a short listen and really liked what I heard, but the music they had was very different to the music I'm listening to. I'll get back there soon with my dx90 for another demo.
 
I was really surprised by how light they are. For those who own it - do you use it as a portable? if so, what's the isolation like?

Great to have K812 at the meet. It's one model I always considered buying but never had a proper chance to audition it.
The distributor also told me to avoid the initial batch because of high defect rate (one channel dying), but apparently the new batches are OK.
 
I also forgot to mention the gears I will be bringing, aside from the usual old collection headphone tree, some new ones are
ATH-AD2000X, MDR-Z7, HD8DJ, P5 Series 2, HPH-MT220, iFi iDSD Micro, maybe some others I've forgotten.
I should also have the MDR-EX1000 but I'm looking for some silicone earpieces instead of the Comply's.
MDR-Z7 is amazing and worth a listen. Probably the biggest surprise for me was the P5 Series 2, considering how lousy the initial model sounded.

Sennheiser HD600
