Since I have gotten a decent response to the date of Nov. 7th I am going to go ahead and put it on the calendar.  Please post below if coming so we can get an approximate count as I look for a venue.  Also, what you might be bringing or hoping to see there so people have an idea what will be there and what someone might be wanting to hear if you have it and might not have thought to bring it.


Details:

Date: November 7, 2015
Time: 1pm till 4 or 5pm
Location: Needle Doctor
6006 Excelsior Blvd. St. Louis Park, MN 55416

I will have:
My Laptop
Schiit Magni 2 (Uber)
Schiit Modi 2 (Uber)
Hifiman HE-560.
 
Being a noob to this I will be looking forward to getting a chance to listen to the HD-800 & Sr 009 (if anyone is willing to bring one like there having been in previous meets). Audeze, Mr. Speaker's headphones like the Alpha Dog, Prime maybe Ether( I won't be expecting to see an ether though, just wanted to know what the hype was about). Would be a good chance to try & see which sound signatures suites me best and have people listen to the HE-560.

(I see two people already bringing the Yggdrasil, not sure if I'll bring mine....)
The week warmup is brutal. Unfortunately I don't have a ups(battery) connected to it.
It would be interesting if someone brought a Yggy powered off their UPS so it got to the meet warmed up already.
I've heard it sounds pretty bad the first 12 hours on-time, I never noticed because I had mine turned on for a few days before listening to it.

Mine will make the trip fully powered via a battery pack. Agreed, Yggy needs warm-up to shine. Glad you can make it!

I was selected to try the FiiO X7 flagship DAP, so if any of you Minnesotans would like to try it let me know. I have not got a date when I will be receiving it yet but I'm hoping that I will have it for our meet.

  Do we have a venue yet?
 
Where is the rest of normal crew?

I don't believe so. We should get that lined up asap. Any thoughts/suggestions. We've had different venues for the last 3 meets.
 
As for the rest of the crew - good question!

Come on all you Minnesotan Head fiers lets get this to be at least as big as the last one. maybe if we actually have a venue pick out there would be more signing up. I would be willing to pitch in for a hotel meeting room like we had last year if anyone is willing and if we have more than people.
