Hi guys – unfortunately I won’t be able to make this meet

. I was just recently released from the Royal Victoria Hospital after spending 3 days in isolation and another week in recovery after suffering my second COPD related bout of pneumonia, and I’m still not quite over it.  Add to that, just a few days before my hospitalization I was diagnosed with prostate cancer

.  Fortunately I had some decent portable audio gear for the hospital and to come home to my Baby Orpheus, KGSS and some great tunes to speed up recovery

. 
Look forward to seeing y’all at the next meet.

Jeeze...  I am so sorry to hear about your health issues; my heart goes out you.
 
My wife and I were at the air port this morning and we were waiting in line for Timms and in front of us was a bald lady with her husband.  She wore a T-shirt that said something to the effect of, "I beat cancer and now I'm living my life!"
 
Hang in there, cancer can be beat.  Make a speedy recovery buddy and we will see you at the next meet!

Best wishes for a speedy recovery! Really sorry to hear that, but as Paul mentioned, stay strong and it can be beaten! (my mom went theough Stage 3 breast cancer when I was in high school, now 15 yrs in remission!).

Happy to hear the music is helping you keep your spirits up!

In terms of gear for sale, all I can say is bring a fat wallet Everything is awesome and custom with one exception. Amps in the 1.2k range, plus my Buffalo DAC with Gilmore Dynalo balanced as a package for 2.5k it's basically a very high end DAC and an amp with same design as HeadAmp GS-X ($2800 retail) but with a simpler power supply.

Lots of RCA and XLR cables available.

Also, I have a 6ft cable ready for a recable job or custom cable. This is stranded pure silver, not spc. Basically the best of the best and highly prized cable for headphones available. It's only available at a couple of sources and goes for about $8USD/ft. For a 4 wire, 6 ft cable, that's 24ft of wire and in Canadian dollars is just about $275. That's just the wire. So if you're interested in something amazing, please let me know. I am willing to build you a cable or recable your headphones at around material costs.

I am sorry to hear this Bryan. Hang in there. Prostate cancer in general has a very good chance of being beaten.

Just a note guys, please don't arrive early. As all my meets go, I'm still running around and setting things up until like 12:30. That's usually a good time to aim for at the earliest. Anything before 12 and you'll be carrying equipment with me and moving tables.

I ordered a pack of large spinfits from CTCaudio, it comes with two sets so I could sell you the other one, although it probably wont arrive till sometime this week

Hi everyone! Thanks for a great meet. Didn't take any notes this time, but had loads of great conversations and a wonderful time seeing new and familiar faces. Whoever changed my Winamp library view is forgiven - I figured it out again! Pavel: if you are going to start a different thread for feedback, I'll post pictures there. Thanks for hosting! I'll bring fancy name tags next time! Cheers - J
