I have a Sony XL 777 ES SACD player I can bring. Didn't know anyone would be interested. I can't remember the last time I used it, everything I listen to now is ripped.

That would be great, bring it. Thanks.

Well, I am bringing a laptop also to hook up to my Modi/Magni, I just didn't list it because I figured it was assumed

  Ah, well it should be interesting getting to listen to all those fancy disc spinners

OK, it looks like we've got sources covered, that's good. Looking over post #2 I'd say we're going to assembly an impressive display of gear and I glad to see there has been some discussion about the music also. after all, this meet isn't about just looking at the gear, it's about the different listening experiences.
 
Happy New Year everyone! I look forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones. This will be a great meet..

Been wondering about those (the O2s).

I'll have another turntable at the ready. Don't think it's top quality but I'll have it. It's a Technics SL-J2. I've ordered a fresh cartridge for it as it was in my basement for a while. I'm hoping that will fix the distortion I'm currently experiencing.

I also have a Sony CDP-CX230 I can bring as another CD player. I'd hate to have people standing around not listening to anything.

Hello everyone.  I would like to join the Meet if that is ok.
I am a new Head-Fi member, but have been lurking here for over a year reading thousands of posts.  (Better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt, right?)  I wanted to come last spring, but was out of the state at the time.  Glad I can make it this time.
 
Most of my gear is portable or transportable.  Sorry I don’t have any CD players or turntables to bring.  Here is what I have.
Source:  iPod touch.  iPod nano.  Everything I have ripped is 320 kpbs constant bit rate.  MP3 gain @ 90dB.
Interconnect:  Moon audio Silver Dragon ipod LOD to single end 1/8”.  FiiO L3 ipod LOD to 1/8”.
Amps:  Headstage Arrow 2.2G.  Nico SoundLabs Portable V3 (with all upgrades).
Headphones/IEM:  Grado RS1i.  AKG K702.  Ultimate Ears Triple Fi-10 w/Jaben ES8 cable.  Shure SE-530.  Ultimate Ears Super-Fi-5 with Jaben ES8 cable.  All have 1/8” mini jacks.  Will bring some 1/8 to 1/4” bullets.  And some various (new) rubber tips and olives if anyone is really interested in the IEMs.
 
Music:  I have all kinds of rock and blues.  So if you want anything special loaded on the ipods, I might have it and can make a playlist.
 
I look forward to meeting everyone and listening to some great rigs.
Rhett…  (aka. Howlin’ Fester)

Ooops. Looks like I have a new addition to the headphone list. Just grabbed a used pair of Klipsch S4s. So, I'll have those in case anyone wants to try those as well. I've been interested in the IEMs lately for riding in my noisy van on my commute.
 
Welcome, Fester. This will be my first meet too. Hopefully, the hazing won't be too severe.

Welcome, Fester! I've never been to a head-fi meet where I didn't feel welcome! I'm sure you'll have a blast. Looking forward to meeting all you guys..

Since I'm just starting on my portable rig, the more IEMs and portable amps the better!

I'll bring my Yamaha EPH-100 IEM's if you want to try them out. I'll also bring my Fischer Audio Eterna's to sell/trade if anyone fancies them :)
