Hey folks, in just over a month Billy (bhd812) along with the rest of the CanJam 2010 organizing crew will be hosting the third annual ChiUniFi headphone meet at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Chicago, IL.

This is the same venue that will be used for CanJam 2010 in Chicago, so this year may feel more like a test run for the big event next summer. We currently have two separate rooms reserved for this meet, will follow up with more details in the coming days.

Ryan (Recstar24) will be handling the attendee list, and Billy will be involved with the dealings for vendors.

~~~

To sum it up:

1. Date: November 7th
   
2. Time: 11 AM - 5PM (subject to change
   
   )
   
3. Place: Hyatt Regency O'Hare
   
4. Fee: We don't have one
   
5. Recommendations on what to bring: yourself, friends, eager ears, gear, and money for the raffle if interested (again will follow up on details)

~~~

Get ready
