The list of equipment that will be there is on the intimidating side.

Bring them, lots of people use more than one type of headphone. Personally I would like to hear them as I dont have a set for tooling around with my phone when I am on the go.

x3 There are usually people who show up who are just starting out. Having inexpensive, easy to drive phones there give them something to listen to that they might buy. It's great being able to hear high end phones, but not everyone can or are willing to shell out $500 plus on a headphone.

With that in mind, my profile is reasonably up to date so if someone wants to hear a particular headphone, let me know and I'll bring it.

grawk, scompton & olblueyez: Thanks. I will be there. I am hoping that olblueyez brings his HD 650s because I am currently considering a purchase of those or the 600s but am worried that my Onkyo CD player/integrated amp (playing rock) won't be a good match.

 

[olblueyez]

They will be there, I will be the 270 pound dough boy with the 650's!

I went today to the library to pick up the tickets and have "nice" talk with the lady responsible for the room scheduling. First she said that somebody called and cancel room reservation.

After checking all her and my emails she agreed that we booked the room.

Anyway, we have room booked on April 5th. The library will open at 13:00 so there is no point to come earlier. Since the day is Sunday we do not need any parking reservation, just park on any free spot at the library parking lot.
Also the library will work till 9pm and not 5pm as I was told, so we can have the room till about 8:30pm if somebody wants to stay longer. Bring some snacks and water if you want.

Cheers

That's interesting about the cancellation. I had that happen to me where I had made reservations on Valentine's day at a restaurant I knew would be impossible to "walk-in". I did this a month in advance and verified the day before. And then 1hr before my reservation I got a notice via email that I had cancelled it. After I stopped panicking, I called where the lady mentioned that someone else had just called to book my slot. Of course I got it all straightened out. Is this some kind of trend? Sheesh.

One a positive note, thank you vvs_75 for taking the time and effort to do this.

I've gotten the Bijou up and running, a diy wheatfield HA2 up and humming (literally), and a set or two of AKG 240M (600ohm) that I can lug in.

Now very unsure if I can make it.

 

[Dreadhead]
