I am officially opening my place for a Dallas Head-Fi Meet for those interested. It doesn't look like I can have it before the end of the year, so how about Saturday, January 11, 2003, at 1:00 pm? We'll see if Sunday is needed. That will give everyone time to wind down from the holidays.

How does that date work for everyone else? Start chiming in if you're interested.

 

[Toddathan]

We may as well get the equipment list started, too. Maybe seeing what will be there will stimulate some more interest. I will have the following pieces available, good or bad:

Amps:
Melos SHA-1
Parasound HCA 800 mk.II headphone out
SAC K-1000 (for AKG K-1000's)

Phones:
Grado HP-2
Grado SR-325
AKG K-1000
Senn HD 600 w/ Equinox
Senn HD 580
Senn HD 497
Sony V-6
Koss Porta-Pros

Source:
Pioneer DV-343 w/ Bolder modded ART DI/O
Toshiba DVD-A, HDCD player


We were short on sources for a while last time, so bring what you have!

I wish we had some high efficiency speakers to hook up to Kelly's RKV to test it out as an integrated amp.

I anticipate being able to go, though I don't have much to contribute...

amp:
kind of outdated now META42 with AD843 (not class A), single EL2001 buffers.

HPs:
Sennheiser HD590 with Stefan AudioArt Vision 1 and stock cable
Sony MDR-7506
Grado Sr-60

Sources:
Pioneer DV414 stock
Sony DE-J1000?

Bum deal, Nick. I know headphones aren't your main gig but if you manage even 30 minutes to drop by, I'll make sure you get to hear something cool.

 

[jerikl]

I'll be coming with the usual...

-AMC CD8b
-MG Head OTL
-Senn 600's w/stock cable
-various tubes for the head
-good music

I'm really looking forward to discovering some new music

 

[Maxvla]

i'd love to come... however its decently far away but i realize there's never going to be an OKC headfi meet. Dallas would likely be the closest place to me.

i'm not sure if i can get away for long enough. would hafta be a saturday/sunday thing.

the one thats coming up in a couple weeks is too soon for me to come as i'll just be getting into my apt and i'll be busy with that.

looking forward to the next one though.

no equipment as of yet besides my 580s. working on my META but i don't really have anything out of the ordinary that you guys have never heard before.

 

[Gallaine]

I'd love to be there. Unfortunately, I can't promise anything...we have a deadline Feb. 15 that is a must make and mgmt is all in a tizzy about working lots and lots of hours, sacrificing your life, yadda yadda yadda. Anyway, if I can swing it I'll bring:

It's almost time for the Dallas Meet. I will try to start emailing or PM'ing directions to those of you have indicated that you can make it. If you haven't heard from me by tomorrow morning, then please feel free to send me an email or PM (I prefer PM) and let me know you'll be coming.

 

[da_burl]

Guess you guys don't like FOOTBALL huh????

I am too fired up about my first NFL High Definition broadcast (which unfortunately starts at 3pm Saturday) to make this one, but I will try to make the next one!

By then, maybe I will have a "maxed out" META42 , to compliment my Szerkes and CHA47, and SR80's and MS-1's!!

 

[Toddathan]

Headroom will be sending samples of the following additional Equipment:

Max
Supreme
Cosmic

Grado RS-1's
Senn HD 600's with Cardas

Thanks to Mike at Headroom!!

My wife is recovering from pneumonia, so I may be unable to stay for very long.

I will bring:

1. HeadRoom Max with stepped attenuators
2. Senn HD600 with Cardas
3. Sony XA777ES SACD player, for comparison with Kelly's hotrodded version
