Hi All --
 
Count me in again for this year.  Last year's was my first and a definite highlight!  Will be bringing my friend Dan too.  Gear to be determined...

Looking forward to seeing you again as well as the rest of the group.  It is always a great time to meet old friends and meet new ones.
 
I have updated the ChiUniFi Facebook page.  I still have a couple of possible friends I am waiting to hear from.

Just to let everyone know, in addition to their generous donation to the raffle, Head-Direct / HiFiMan are sending their prototype EF6 preamp / headphone amplifier along with a pair of HE-6s for attendees to audition.  We'll also have available to audition their HE-500 and HE-300.

I can't believe the fifth annual ChiUniFi is just two weeks away.  
 
I may end up not bring too much as there won't be room in my car (smaller vehicle than last year) with the raffle prizes.  I do have to say thanks to all of our friends who are helping ensure there will be another ChiUniFi.
 
However, the most important part of all of this is the community of Head-Fiers who get together to share their personal stuff along with the interaction of one another.  I for one spend more of my time talking with fellow head-fiers attending.

I just heard from HeadRoom and they are sending me in addition to a special raffle prize, a BUDA/UDAC stack for attending head-fiers to get a chance to listen to.  
 
With the HeadRoom BUDA/UDAC as well as the HiFiMan EF6, I will not plan on bringing any amplifer myself.

On the pair of HE-300's Head-Direct / HiFiMan sent for attendees to audition at the meet, Fang has offered to let an attendee have a longer term audition after the meet in return for just posting a review on Head-fiers.  If you are interested, please drop me a PM here.

once again, a very generous gesture from Fang.  Wish he could attend the meet.  He's such a nice guy.
