Are there any restrictions on alcohol etc at this place?
This is like a mini canjam. I might be able to make it. Any chance of Burson sending somebody?
i can bring;
Lavry DA11
Onkyo ND-S1 digital ipod dock
Headroom Pico DAC/amp
I also have a Burson HA-160, an Apogee Duet,and a Dacmagic that i could bring if somebody twisted my arm.
>nattonrice: lol, I thought you you were going to drink the night before with qusp anyway? And would mixing alcohol + expensive gears be a good idea?
strictly speaking, neither is mixing a hangover or even being tired. All it takes is forgetting that an amp is plugged into a step-down transformer, unplugging it at the socket at the back and then plugging it into 240v mains
(and I speak from experience)
hmmm, i'm actualy not all that sure that too many people that are not actively involved in the hobby is a good thing. so far is ok, but i'm not sure we should be encouraging it. the gear has to be looked after and those who dont have their own, may not be aware of proper procedure for switching cans, safe levels etc. maybe i'm worrying about nothing, but its not something that has ever been encouraged before and i agree with it not being encouraged before. not having any link to someone other than being a friend and not being a member leaves no way of knowing who people are, or having any way to contact, also means that ring ins that do not even know a member can drop in and your brother may be a deterant, but a single person is not enough. generally head-fi meets are limited to head-fi members, but like i said, a few ring ins is fine, actually a good thing.

please PLEASE bring the DT880 pro. if they're too much of an inconvenience, i'd gladly buy it off you and save the hassle of carrying it back
@Jaben could you also bring the DT 770 whichever version you prefer, I'm seriously considering buying them from you on the day.
And this really is excellent all the people attending, and the list of gear is amazing. Can't wait to be there. Also hope to bring a friend, he just wants to observe, does really have any gear but is interested in getting into the Audio world. Hope this won't be a problem for anyone. All overheads will be easily covered by both.
