Would anyone be able to convince Matt Engstrom, Michael Johns, or any other Shure rep to attend and bring some goodies? Niles isn't too far away.

While I think about it, Etymotic is in Elk Grove...

Confirmed, I'll be there. I'll drop a note to the guys at shure as well. cant hurt.

I am new to the Head-Fi scene and hope you don't mind if I swing by the event. I only have a set Grado 225's and a set of Sennheiser buds. I have a broken iPod so I am stuck using my Sansa clip for now.

I am looking forward to hearing some ESw9's if someone has them. Maybe some AKG 702's.

Thanks,
Nick

Looks like I will be able to make it.

If anyone is in between Appleton and Kenosha and needs a ride let me know.

You can count me in. I am not sure what I will bring. Depends on the source I decide on.

 

[Ishcabible]

Ok, bad news. I probably won't be able to buy the amp in time. If you want to hear the epicness of Floats, someone with an amp must be beside me...

 

[Zombie_X]

Hey Ishcabible, I'm bringing a few amps long with me, so you can use one if you'd like.

Also I'm bringing along all my DIY stuff, so I can make interconnects/recables for you guys. They are obviously gonna be for sale though.

I'm actually bringing my AKG K701's along, so you are more than welcome to listen to them.

 

[Ishcabible]

Cool, thanks!

 

[Zombie_X]

Yeah, it'll just have to be where I am since the other amps aren't "technically "headphone amps".

Also there is a Jecklin Float at a local pawn shop for $150, should I get it if it works?

 

[Ishcabible]

Duh! $150 is a bit high though. Bargain down for it even if it doesn't work.

Unless it's the electrostatic ones without the transformer. The transformers are pretty hard to find.

 

[Zombie_X]

I'll have to look into it. How do they sound though? Are they anything like my current phones?

I'll probably try to get a listen in, too. I want to hear what all the hate is about.

Jecklin Float Model II - Wikiphonia

 

[Zombie_X]

Thanks man and the Floats seem to be pretty banged up. There are lots of little knicks in it. The shop owner won't let me try them first though... so I don't know.

I'm not sure if I'll be bringing the X-100-B though, it's like 40lbs and I'd be by myself.

So it seems that the company in Asia I was getting to do the boards has decided to screw me over. If someone knows of a company that does LGBPA chips ( micro sized as in lass than 1cm x1cm) please let me know.

I will have the amp ready and hopefully with a little dot bluetooth Dac integrated ( not as good as the planned one, still pretty decent). Big case though at 4.5 x 3 x .75 one box wireless dual mono li-ion portable solution. Would be smaller if I can get some surface mount done. Haven't gotten in my digital pot yet though.
