Special Guest Speaker:
 
We are happy to announce that Tyll Hertsens will be giving a series of talks during the meet. Come meet the Grandpapa of headphonedom. 
 
Misc:
 
Although there will be plenty of vendors at the meet, we encourage attendees to bring their own gear. Tables and access to power outlets will be provided. Feel free to show up without any gear if you’d just like to join in for a day to check out new gear and talk with other members and vendors about the hobby. The event is free of charge to individuals.
 
Please keep in mind that you always want to treat equipment belonging to others with respect and care as if it were yours and you paid lot's of money for it. If you are unsure about how to use something, always ask. Never relocate any equipment from someone’s table without their express permission.
 
Please post in this thread if you are planning to attend and list the equipment that you’ll be bringing and I’ll compile and list to add to the beginning of the thread.
 
The ballroom will be available for setup purposes early Saturday morning, 7:00 am, for vendors and attendees to setup their gear.
 
Parking:
 
Parking is available at the hotel and is free. Please be sure to always keep expensive equipment secure. Please do not leave expensive equipment locked in your car.

Please spread the word about this meet and let’s make this a great event for everyone.

Food: You’ll be on your own for lunch but there are plenty of places to eat within a few miles of the event. As always, please do not bring food or drink near anyone’s equipment.

AWESOME!!!! The original Canlanta was my first meet, and it was a spectacular success IMO... I spent much of the next 2 years buying and selling and generally rebuilding my entire setup based on what I heard there. VERY excited that there will be another one, and I will do my damnedest to attend!!
 
How exactly did you get roped into this, Matt?? :wink:

Super stoked!  
 
A bevy of vendors should also be joining the list in the next couple of weeks now that we officially have the hotel booked.
