I'll be there from Duluth, MN!

Ok guys,

I bought 20 Neutrik connectors.
So as long as no more than 10 people want to make Mini-mini cables we should be fine.
A set of two connectors will set you back $2.50 (cheaper than if you went and bought them yourself).

$2.50 to build your own hi-fi Mini-Mini cable without the need to buy wire, equipment, solder, flux, etc.

There will be two stations available. One will be with a well loved pencil iron (with an extremely well tinned tip) and the other is a cheap station I picked up for $25 last weekend. Sorry, my Auyroe SMT rework combo station stays at home for obvious reasons.

If anyone has a spare set of helping hands that would be awesome. I only have one set that is portable. They are well loved as well since they used to be my grandfathers.

Looks like right now I will be able to have a pair of 120ohm SFI ortho drivers in an Fake ESW9 frame, just waiting for drivers. Hopefully they can fool a few people..

Is this going to be going on all throughout the meet or just a certain time?

Germania said she was real casual about it, so I would imagine if you come late, and there are still connectors left, she would help you out.

 

[Zombie_X]

-=Germania=-, I can help you out with it. I'm pretty good at soldering as long as you have flux.

Mm, I think the last one I went to was in Michigan at some point in the distant past, but I can't remember how long ago that was. Three years? Something to that effect.

Looks like I'm just going to grind it out on the highways. It's only seven hours, no big deal.

That's long since been torn to shreds, unfortunately. The next potential project is to mod out a squeezebox or sonos type device but that's still in the planning stages.

Hey buddy, nice to hear from you again. I have a big place you can crash on the sofa on Saturday night & head back home on Sunday. I have another friend staying over night. We can spend the evening listening to some vinyl
on speaker system.

Ray, that sounds great -- thanks much for the offer. It's been a long time, hasn't it?

I actually grew up a Buckeye. I 've driven many hours on those highways - that's a long and boring seven hours of flat roads and corn fields!! Well, have a good trip - look forward to meeting you on Saturday!

 

[terriblepaulz]

Because my wife is working, I will have the spawn with me. I only hope they can live up to the great example set by Skylab's kids at a previous meet. Methinks mine will be a drop-in kind of visit, either before or after a trip to the museum and lake-front park.

By the way I'll have my Little Dot I+, USB Fubar II, and Grado 325i (and my MacBook as the source).

 

[tigon_ridge]

Looks like it's going to be a 12-mile bike ride for me. Oh well, good for exercise?
