I'm getting the feeling that this is going to turn into a photo shoot for the Headphone Fetish page.... I don't think Mrs. Tuberoller would be too amused by that.

Dear Headfellows,

Well, sometimes it's a pity that I'm living in "old Europe" and not in the "new world". Otherwise I would certainly have been on this one. Quite a lot of interesting stuff

Tuberoller asked me for some demo-amps and so I'll send him a PREHEAD (LM6171 version), a HA-2 and the new upcoming HA-1 MkII (provided I get the front- and backplates of the enclosure ready in time). If no one has a RKV I also might send one of these (but only if you guys really like me to!)

Cheers,

Jan

Hey, i really want the RKV there. After all, if we loot it, it's on tuberollers head

I don't think Tuberoller is going to have enough parking spaces for all the people showing up, yet room for all the gear. I hope to drive up from Central Illinois on Saturday and possibly Sunday. I can bring my RKV to save Jan from shipping one all the way from Germany. I will also bring a ZCable LIVE, a TDS Passive Audiophile, a Panasonic portable SL-341 with a Game Junkie. Since I am bringing the RKV, I guess I will bring my HD600 with the Blue Clou.

After Vertigo's recent post, I contacted Mark Hampton at ZCable to see about upgrading my LIVE's to the latest Version 5. Mark indicated he has a new product coming out and suggested I try it instead of upgrading. I should have it before the meet and hope to bring it with.

Sign me up for Saturday.

I'll bring my Beyer 831s and maybe a little amp.

Jan - if the politics don't change we may all be relocating to the "Old Europe" - Don't sell the haus yet!

I'd be curious how the Prehead vs. Max vs. RKV shootout would end up. I've been spending some time with an RKV, great sounding amp. I keep going back to the Melos.

 

[Born2bwire]

Maybe we should rent out McCormick

, that'll solve any space problems.

 

[DLP]

Yeah, you pay for it, I'll supervise.

 

[Jan Meier]

Dear Audio Addict,

Thanks for bringing your amp. This indeed saves me quite some work and costs. Shipping a PREHEAD or HA-2 is easy. But the RKV needs very carefull packing and is quite heavy.

Today I collected the PCB's for the new HA-1 MkII. Right now I'm only waiting for the front- and backplates of the enclosure. If necessary I'll make some provisory plates.

Cheers,

Jan

Thanks Jan these additions will make this meet a real showpiece for amps and headphones. I am glad it is a 2 day event.

 

[Kieran Comito]

It looks like I'm clear to make it to the meet. Something could come up, but right now I am planning on comming. I have not read the whole thread, but I'm planning on bringing my Sony MDR 10 and the new ASL Twin Head MKII. If someone is already bringing this gear let me know. Thanks

 

[qutius]

Well, I don't have any plans during that weekend, so I will probably be able to make it as well.

I could bring my HD-580s w/ Cardas cable, if needed. I also have my JMT powered META42, which I would be happy to bring along as well - I know some of this gear is already on the list, but I'd feel bad if I didn't bring anything!

I am located in Madison and could bring along one or two other people, if needed. I drive a little fast, but I promise you'll be safe

Shoot me a PM if you would need a ride...

Sounds like this will be a great time

 

[Born2bwire]

Hey guys! Is anyone in contact with Tuberoller outside the forum? I just got a PM from someone saying that Tuberoller has been in the hospital since Sunday

. Was wondering if anyone had any information regarding this.

 

[acidtripwow]

I have his cell phone number. I can give Tuberoller a call and see what's up.

 

[Born2bwire]

I got a MG Head OTL-H in the mail today so I'll be bringing that up as well. Also, I'll be bringing my portable source, a Sony D-E401 too.
