I'm sorry, I already edited you, but seems I didn't did it the right way. You're on the list now!

I don't know if it qualifies as a reference source, but my Berendsen could be part of the meet. Some people considered its sibling, the Gamut CDP to compete right up there with the big boys. On these boards, Tyrion had the Berendsen and he liked it a lot. It throws a great soundstage and has a beautiful organic sound as is. I expect it to come back any day from Mr. Berendsen with a DAC and analog stage upgrade.

I could bring some Berendsen schnaps to go along with it.

Anyone out there with the FOTYear, the Eastsound CD5?

I also will bring the PPX3 SLAM 6sn7 tuberolled to perfection with Ken-Rad VT 231 gain and Tung-Sol D getters output tubes courtesy of Singlepower East.

The Berendsen is supposed to be great, I can't wait to hear it. I wouldn't mind hearing some Naim equipment or even a G08 Meridian. By the way I just recieved my Cyrus cdp today, its made a huge improvement to my system.

I will join the meet. Whether the end of January or the beginning of February, I don't mind. However, I feel it would be wise if firestarter sets a date right now so people can make definitive plans.

Cheers

Jan

Very good point!

 

[Sisyphos]

What a great idea! Thank you Luuk for initiating this.
I very much like to attend as well. Doesn't matter if the final date is at the end of January or at the beginning of February.
Unfortunately I've got nothing really special to bring. Phones: HD595 and DT931 and if somebody is interested in some cheapos: px100, ep630 and ksc75; Source: a Laptop with Echo Indigo and the old Rega Planet; Amps: a PCMkII and (by then) the Corda Aria.
P.S.: @cosmopragma and @smuh: As I'm in Duesseldorf and do have a car I could pick you up if you like.

The 11th of February it is. I just consulted my parents and they'll most likely be on vacation. If not, they're happy to go visit someone to give us the space and quiet we'll need for a proper Head-Fi meet.

As I've heared nothing to the contrary, I'll assume that everybody who'd like to attend is available on the 11th.

We'll be delighted to hear your amps Jan

I am still a bit confused where the meet will be, I have browsed through the thread. But will the meeting be in Hoogeveen, Nieuw-Vennep, or elsewhere?

I would like to come. It kind of depends where it will be held and of course whether I have time on the 11th of february. And maybe you don't want me to come

.

I am only a "poor" student, therefore I don't have too much gear:

-Shure E4
-iPod 5G
-Philips HP 890
-Koss KSC55
-a whole collection of wrecked sub 40 euro over-the-ear/earbuds/IEMs

The meet will be held at my parents' place, which is about 10km east of Hoogeveen. I prefer to disclose the address in email, rather than just posting it here

Beer and munchies sounds great, but on the other hand, beer and expensive headphone setups doesn't sound like a great combo.

The HD-595 sounds fine trough a cmoy to my ears, but then again, it's the only headphone amp I've ever had, so don't take my word for it.

Hoogeveen seems like far away, but it really shouldn't be a problem. I *might* have my drivers licence by the time this meet gets going.
