Great day once again, thanks to Nadeem and co for making it possible for like minded people to all congregate in one place and forget about our kids, wife's (or husbands, see I was pc there) and mortgages for 6 hours even though I was late through my own fault and lost an hour of Head-fi wonder i will never get back.
The laid on buffet was stella, especially the chicken Tikka wrap!
Thanks to all who are kind enough to let us hear their own personal gear and was able to decide what to bankrupt myself with next.
Shout out to the guy who inspired me at the April meet to get a Vorzuge amp and acknowledged each other today across the room whilst we had headphones glued to our heads but never got around to having a chat (passing amps in the night and all) with you to say thanks for blowing £350 of my money on the amp! You know who you are ; )
Pick of the day for me was the Grado PS1000 which my Vorzuge actually drove like a Range Rover through mud albeit I would not endeavour using them with anything less than a dedicated desktop dac/amp. to get full potential from a essentially a £2K can.
Impressed with the Beyers also but have now heard the HD800 on three different set ups and despite been in awe at it's ultra clean and refined attention to fine detail and out the box imaging still sit on the fence with these and cannot figure out why?
Learning all the time from these meets, like remember your jack adaptors! Doh! -
Thanks to IFI table for letting me borrow their one for a while! IFI, nice sounding gear that is made to tank like reference hi-fi standards with attention to detail with everything from design, build and sound.
Great meet made great by great like minded people's.
Until next time.....
