hmm, anyone else coming in from a distance and not have anything to do friday evening? i was wondering if anyone would be up for maybe grabbing some pizza for dinner at like 5 or 6, chit chat about some headphones/music/the meaning of life.
 
just an idea 

I'm thinking about just staying the night. I'm up for it. I may go into town to do some record shopping the next day.

definitely coming to the meet and super excited about it and I will bring minimal gears 
 
does anybody have an extra extension cable I can use to plug in my laptop, amp and DAC? 
I do not want to unplugged everything at home to bring mine and do not want to buy a new one since I will have no use for it after the meet 
 
 
 
for laugh: sister thinks that I have lost my mind, driving all the way to Chicago for a meet. 
Original plan was to get the week off and visit family but my boss had other plans
 
Maybe I am crazy but I stop telling how much my phones cost.  Wonder how crazy they will think I am if they know how much I have spent on this hobby
 
To my fellow crazy music lovers, see you in Chi town

ah, that early morning drive was the thing i defintiely wanted to avoid, having to travel a little over 5 hours to be thre by 10am...id rather drive up the day before, and since im staying with a friend up there i dont have to worry about the hotel anyways. but yeah, figured id see if anyone else was doing the same, and thought instead of being bored, we could get together.

Going through the same thing. My family thinks I am going nuts. It's kind of funny actually...
 
To all those who will be there early, I might drive up on Friday. How do you want me to hit you guys up?

 

[SoupRKnowva]

Oh and i forgot to mention what i would be bringing. Probably just an Audio-GD Sparrow, my JH-13s and potentially a Macbook Pro, that i havent used in some time since i got a desktop, but i will be checking it out and making sure its good to go with all my music and such this week.

 

[SoupRKnowva]

hmm, i dont realy want to let the hat out of the bag quite yet, since its not a done deal....but would anyone be able to bring a 4pin XLR to speaker taps cable? like what someone would use to plug balanced headphones into a speaker amp.
 
i know it would be pretty easy to DIY one up real quick, but i have neither the supplies nor the equipment to do so myself.

Would a 4 pin XLR female to banana plugs work?

OK. I'll be happy to bring it. I will have it at Ray Samuels' table so feel free to pick it up there when you arrive.

HeadRoom was scheduled to ship the Triple Stack Monday to me along with the HD800 and Audeze.  I dropped them a line to see if it would be possible to switch out one of those for the Shure 1840 since there will be HD800 and Audeze at the meet.  No promises but will let you know if anything changes.
 
PS:  If you didn't notice on the attendee list, take a look who is listed as 01.  I put our founder as 00.

 
I just got an email back from Ryan at HeadRoom and they will be able to include the Shure 1840 instead of one of the other headphones.  Their gear still hasn't arrived back from THE SHOW so it will be close but it doesn't look like I will be able to consider coming up on Friday as I am sure I will be waiting for the Shures.

thanks for the assistance man!
 
and it seems like it is a sure thing now, im gonna be able to bring along an AMB B24 reference power amplifier to test with the LCD-3s and the HE-6s, i cant imagine this not being an amazing pairing to hear but i guess we will see. Im borrowing it from a fellow dayton head-fier for the meet

Thank you so much!  This is incredible news.

I am sorry to report, Ryan got back to me today and it turns they don't have a Shure 1840 available to send to ChiUniFi.  I am sorry guys.  It must be a popular headphone.

Dang!!  That's really too bad.
