It closes at 21h on friday, but I just had a chat with Michel and there are specific rules concerning gear and box carrying on friday, saturday and sunday:
- If you are to bring gear DURING the show (meaning after thursday evening) you have to enter the hotel AT LEAST 1h15 before the doors open to the public. That means before 8h45 saturday and sunday morning. Michel told me he wanted to have the least people possible with gear in their hands so please be there early. That'll give you some time to set up everything and give it a try before everyone arrives.
- I'm not sure about the loading dock on saturday and sunday, but I'll give Michel a check for that. If anyone wants to bring big boxes and load them all at once please send me an email, I'll check with him if it works.
Also, I'd love to hear your whole setup punk_guy! I couldn't give the ref 1 dac a good listen last time, and could you bring the SE cables for HD650, to try them on the twinhead?
