Dear All,
I am also sorry about joining this thread so late. Unfortunately, it looks like I won't be able to join the meet that is taking place right in my back yard. For some reason, my company decided to enroll me in their SSBB program (at age 57!), and along with the international travel it's consumed my year. Hopefully, I will be able to join next year.
I read through this thread today and learned a lot. Both about you and about your equipment and preferences. That's what Head-Fi is all about.
Nice job, Theo, for organizing the meet. Also, nice job to ALL for jumping on the bus. It will be a great meet, no doubt about it. I think the Nashville meet will become a Head-Fi fixture and become more relevant as time goes by.
When I read the thread, I realized that I don't have much to offer but more to learn from you.
My current inventory is: LCD-X, Ed-8, SE535, Uberfrost, Asgard2, Dragonfly. All my music is compressed in iTunes.
I will miss a lot about the Nashville meet:
1) Meeting you all
2) Trying to get inside Theo's head
3) Hearing my first Grado: Jay's new GS1000e
4) Hearing the HD800 with a decent amp like ALO MKIIIB+
5) High definition music vs. compressed - especially Rumay's Rock - WOW
6) How the LCD-X sounds with a better amp than the Asgard2
7) And the best - watching new people first experience great cans like HD800, HE-6 and LCD-X
I hope you have a great meet in Franklin.
All the Best,
