Any HE6 photos?
I posted a few more pics, and a few captions. I will take more tomorrow - had a time constraint today unfortunately.
I should add - the meet was SUPER well organized, and great fun!
The Rudistor cans sounded REALLY good to me. Smoother than Grados. Nice detail. I hate Grado pads, though, and that is what was on these - so will be interested to know what the final pads are like. They showed a lot of promise, though!
The Pinnacle also sounded great in my brief audition - really good with the T1 - far better than a few other amps I heard driving the T1.
The Pinnacle did sound great with my Zeus Balanced T1 as well. The Pinnacle was paired with the new Meridian 808.3 and Cardas Clear cables. It was my favorite rig of course there really were not that many balanced rigs being shown by vendors today.
I am definitely going to spend more time in Todds room listening. Additionally Todd had the Peak with the optional power supply connected to the Meridian and it sounded darn good with an unbalanced T1. The T1 really do love tubes driving them.
The Woo Audio Room was always packed as they had so much to audition. I listened to the W22 with my T1 and it sound pretty good but the source was not close to the same level as the Meridian and you could tell but it was still very good and for less than 10% of the cost of the Pinnacle/Meridian set up, says a lot.
The pictures I took weren't really interesting, just amps that I found very nice.
Right before the raffle I was in the WooAudio room and tried the WA2 with the T1s. I am still blown away by how incredible those T1s sounded (and not to mention the WA2). I tried the DT990s and the T1s and the T1s were in a whole other dimension where it sounded 'just right'.
.. but I'm hoping for a few minutes with a Beyer T1. And maybe a few minutes with the HE-60 paired with the ExStata on the Cavalli table.

The T1 certainly was out in force, which made it easy for me to demo them with many different systems. Sadly, I wasn't able to borrow one to try out with my own system, since nearly every T1 I saw was being used by a vendor. I also have a few pics taken with my D90 which I can upload as soon as I get them off my camera and processed.
