Yes, yes, yes, please! I'm particularly interested in what people think of the DAVE > LAu > Abyss rig.

Definitely preferred the Gold over the HeadTrip with both being fed by Dave. Most of the time I used the Gold in the low gain setting. Even then with Steve ' Pioneer Master's, I had 2 to 3 clicks in balanced. I tried converting the balanced to single ended, which gave more control over the volume control but loss some of the magic. In the end preferred the balanced configuration. Definitely enjoyed the time with the CA Gold.
I had a great time last fall and am now even more disappointed I couldn't make it. Please, everyone post pictures and impressions so I can live vicariously through you all
Thanks a bunch! I've been around the HeadTrip many times, but never had an opportunity to listen as I was usually working the show that they were at. Still, several ears I trust have been telling me that the HeadTrip is pretty darned good, and that has piqued my curiosity quite a bit for almost a year now.

It is not the HeadTrip wasn't great, it is the Gold just had that finese. The HeadTrip has that brute strength but that isn't my preference.
Also the step attenuator had too large of steps for more efficient headphones. The Gold can adapt to a variety of headphones with the smooth volume control combined with the L/H gain option.

get some sleep man. It was definitely great to meet everyone. Very fun easy-going group, all with well thought out systems. Thanks to Keith for organizing the event. Special thanks to Ogodei (Steve) for allowing me to indulge with his DNA Stratus, the highlight of my day. I got to hear the RSA Raptor for the first time, after reading so much about it. It was a great listen coupled with great music selection. I'll post pics later today I
Thanks for the compliment .
