  They have already addressed the headphone amp won't happen due to them only having one review unit and it's currently being reviewed by a publisher right now which is great for them. And I'm looking through the emails and I found that they couldn't allow any IEM's due to sanitary reasons (which is absolutely understandable) but I also believe they said they can't loan any headphones either. So far the only thing @MoonAudio said could be a potential is some of their cables.

It's a shame all they are bringing are Cables :/ for That Matter I have 1 Cable by Brian at BTG and 3 by @PETEREK :/ I'd love to show you guys how well built an how great affordable cables sound, compared to the some what over priced offerings by Moon 
 
  You can update my list to include my Yggdrassil and Ragnarok.  Why not.  I'll bring them.  Should be fun.

oooh very awesome :D I know that system is a R2R dac based balanced set up! I'll be super excited to hear my HE 4 running out that :D 
 
Haha soon as I get back to the com I certainly will but didn't you just upgrade those a short time ago haha a couple more days they'll be called the alpha primes XD

even better man! This is getting exciting! 
 
Army if you would message me to, I've got some updates to what I'm bringing with me as well

God I would love to plug my JBLs into that setup.
 
What do you guys think about me bringing the 530s to listen to?  Do want to have any speakers or do we want to keep it purely a headphone event?

  I am planning to have the festivities at a hotel and they will supply the tables with table cloths. I am currently awaiting hearing back from the sales people at the hotel to see what the availability is for certain rooms in February and March. I think using a hotel will simplify things especially for those who may need to stay over night. Also, it makes for a nice venue. Finally, regarding speakers at the Meet, I'm afraid it, by necessity, will need to be a speaker free zone. This has been an issue in the past and speakers and headphones just don't play well together. I'll chime back in soon. 
 
PS: are there any Saturdays in Feb or March that are bad for people to attend? Please let me know as I want to try and accommodate most if not all of our attendees.

Perhaps you can see if jfoxvol will allow you to test this out privately after the meet.

50% chance I'll be there and I'll be bringing friends who are interested in sliding down this slippery slope.  If we stick to the 19th I'm at 99% - 26th and I'm at 1% chance.  I'll be bringing LCD2.2 non-fazor + WooAudio WA7.

I think were set for the 19th, at least I hope so because I've already taken those days off from work!

It's a great setup, the Rag/Yggy.  I have never heard HE-4s before.  Looking forward to trying them out.

haha right, mine are a little special though. I've had the same pair of DT 880 Pads on them for about a year now [I do wash them about every 2 months] an I've got a custom Cable an Wood Cups on it

Like wise, I've only heard the Fazor'd LCD 2. It'll b nice to hear a Non Fazor'd variant!

Thanks everyone! I'm looking forward to it.

Be prepared, the 325is is notorious for being the harshest in the line up (sharp highs) and is very polarizing from what I've seen. However I have always enjoyed them and the Grado sound in general since buying the SR80's as my first cans around 7 years ago or so resulting in my first hi-fi headphone experience. So I'm a bit biased :)
