Bryan, would be great if you can bring the HP1000.  I just got the SR200 with black star drivers, and want to do a comparison of the two.
 
Many thanks.

My new recitfier is burning in nicely and so sounds good, so much so I'm thinking of selling all my other unused tubes during the meet.
 
I have a sophia 274b (will sell for 35 cad), and a raytheon JAN-5R4WGB  for 25.  I'll probably thrown in my 6dr7s with you buying any of the recitfiers. 
 
Not too sure about the 6dr7's in terms of life but the rectifiers are only used for about 2-3 months so they should be okay.

Long shot, but I'm in need of a dirt cheap TOSLINK to RCA DAC, like the cheap $10-$17 ones floating around Amazon and eBay (e.g. eForCity Digital Optical Coaxial Toslink to Analog RCA Audio Converter).
 
I'm going to buy one from Amazon.ca, but if someone has one they want to get rid of on Saturday, please PM me and I'll buy it from you there instead.

A few quick things! First of all, thank you again for organizing this. My father is not a member on head-fi but would very much like to come. He attended along with me at the 2010 (I believe it was) meet. His name is Brian.

Bryan, it's great to see that you'll be attending! I'm sorry to hear about your health, but it will be excellent to see you again after so many years. +1 on the HP1000 request, and I'd like to add another for the HD800. You can play a pivotal role in my corruption; I may buy a pair after the meet tomorrow if I like them :D

Cheers!

Something you haven't seen before

If its balanced (and has a volume control), we can try it out with my Wire (which I need to redo the casework for... or just use FPE... or just get a 3D printer...)

Hello all.

Sorry again to say, but the 28th can't work with me cause I am working out of town this weekend. :frowning2:
The good news is this job I'm doing will allow me to come into a bit of extra $$ so you know waft that means...yes...more audio toys. :)
I have a very keen eye on the Woo Audio WA8 Eclipse and most likely will be buying this pure vacuum tube amp by the middle of June, so by the next HiFi meet I will definitely bring mr. Woo along with my AK Jr and fan favourite The SubPac (fun massage chair of bass!) lol.

Anyway. Have a great time everyone and I will see you guys at the next meet.
Post some good pics, so I can cry for what I missed. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
And thank you to Mr. Ham for making the name tags, Pavel for hosting and being as cool as ever and to Brian, for I hope your convalescing greatly.

Catch you later my fellow audio nerdz. :wink:
