Looking forward to it. Hopefully I will still have Patrick82's 'destroyed' K1000 by then :cool: I think they attract quite some attention :wink: Can't wait to try some more gear. I hope I can get to try HD650, AKG K601, AKG K500/501 and/or ATH-AD2000.

No worries. I can do that date, it's just that I have a Leben on order that may not have arrived by then, and I thought it might be cool for people to hear it.
 
Next meet then, if not this one.  :)
