I just found out about this. Debating getting a hotel room for Friday 25th. I went to the last Pittsburgh meetup, it was my first meetup and I had a great time. Can see my gear in my sig.

Unfortunately, I might not be able to come. I've spent a few days away from my wife over the last few weeks and it's also my birthday weekend, she might have something planned.

Are there tables at the meetup for randos like me to bring their gear?

Sorry to spam the thread but curious are most people driving there and back in one day or staying at a hotel? I'm looking around hotels in the area right now.

Sorry My wife and i will not be able to make it. Pop Camping trip was paid for already, but i want to come to the next one!!

I'm 80% sure I'll be able to make it, so just put me down. I can bring the DCA Expanse and Sennheiser 8XX with both balanced and SE cables.

Edit: do you know which flavor of the Ygg+ it is they're sending? I'd like to try all 3 flavors if possible.

Received the Ygg+ OG!

Yes, tables and big power towers. Should be able to setup your gear and have some fun!

I’ve received a bunch of the equipment with more coming this week! I’ll update the original post as the equipment comes in.

The latest shipment included an Urd! So bring those cds if you want!

And sorry to hear a few people can’t make it now but hopefully we can do this again another time.

Also, Zoom chat with Jason will be at 1:00! Hopefully you have some questions prepped to ask!

I'm in. Booked a hotel a 4 minute drive from the event, driving up Friday night. If anyone else reading this thread is coming from far out of town feel free to DM me if you are doing something fun Friday night.

As the date come close I can confirm I will be able to come. I will bring my electrostatic setup this time. So
Stax x9000,
Stax 007,
Amp is Headamp BHSE,
DAC will be prism sound ada 8xr.
I don't know if I should bring my laptop or the ifi zen stream. Will we get a roon server to run there?

I am bringing my laptop, I recommend it. Last meetup I went too the wifi got pretty overwhelmed with all the streaming going on.

 

[bitman1001100]

Looks like we are getting a Kara and Mjolnir 3 as long as it makes it here on time!!

Bummer! Maybe next time

Thanks and Good point. The ifi zen streamer always give me better sound stage, clarity and blacker background sound. But this time I think connection stability should take more priority.

I like to reserve a block of time to permit some 2 channel listening. If we do this, I will bring my PSB Alpha P3s.

@bitman1001100 I apologize if I missed this information somewhere but what will be the amplifier driving the p3s?

Probably just the Ragnarok that Schiit is sending unless others bring something. I debated bringing a Vidar but not sure I want to carry more equipment . Honestly, until you asked, nobody has responded about two channel so I was debating doing it…. We will have a Freya S and a Kara now though so maybe some will want to try two channel?

Also, Schiit sent multiple iPads with music preloaded to help the listening experience.

Equipment (As I know it so far):
From Schiit (list in work still):
Ragnarok 2
Yggdrasil+ OG
Lyr+
Bifrost 2/64
Jotunheim 2
Syn
Modi
Vali
Urd
Freya S
Kara
Mjolnir 3

Headphones:
Sennheiser 800s
Audeze LCDx
ZMF

So schiit is sending ZMF headphones along with all their stuff? Do you know which?

I have them but I don't know ZMF headphones very well so I can't tell, HA! Closed back, solid wood. On the website, looks like the verite but don't quote me!

For what it is worth, on Saturday I'll be there early to setup... if anyone is interested in coming in and helping me, I would greatly appreciate it! I'll try to get there by 8:30. You can also come and set up your own gear too!

I would definitely want to try the two channels!
