It looks like it's been a while since the last meet here in the Twin Cities, so I was checking to see if there would be any interest in getting a meet set up here sometime during the summer (say, late June to mid-July).
Here's what I was thinking. I spoke to someone at one of the local libraries about the possibility of reserving one of their meeting rooms for a whole Saturday (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.). The library has two meeting rooms; one with a capacity of 40 and one with a capacity of 100 (these are seating capacities only with no tables; with tables, the capacity would probably be half of the above numbers). There would be tables for our gear, chairs to sit in, and plenty of outlets. Best of all, it would be free. We'd just have to bring our equipment and make sure to clean up afterwards.
My first suggestion for a date would be June 27, but that can be changed if it doesn't work for a lot of people. It's also possible that the rooms will already be booked on that date, in which case we would need to come up with another date. The booking period for the summer starts on May 4th, so if we can solidify a date in the next week or so, we'd stand the best chance of being able to reserve a room.
So, I'm checking to see if anyone would be interested in having a meet in the Twin Cities this summer. If you're interested, please respond with your name, the gear you could bring, and whether or not June 27 would work for you (and if the date doesn't work, what other dates would work).
Just to get things started, here is the gear I could bring:
Headphones:
Stax SR-007 Mk. 2
Audio-Technica W5000
Audio-Technica W11jpn
Audio-Technica ESW10jpn
Amps:
Stax SRM-727 II
Audio-Technica AT-HA5000
