Woo-hoo!! Was up until 3:35am last night working on a project to present today, and I'm back up and at it!! (I'm hoping that sounded convincingly energetic and positive, because I actually wanna sleep and shoot somebody, and not necessarily in that order). Okay, hoppin' to it:

The new grado gs1000e's sound great by the way. They are far from broken in, but I think you guys will like my setup.
Brother, you get here whenever you want
. The 'official' time is 10-7, and I'll probably get there around 9:15ish to start setting stuff up. Come on by whenever you feel like it!

There's a looooooot of sexy going on in those pics... Something about the cable and the type of braid they use makes me think of medieval dragon tails or something. I dig 'em.

Can't wait
Packed and ready
I spent 2 solid hours packing up my stuff, since I'll have to leave straight from work tomorrow, Theogenes you are messin' with my mind
Astell & Kern AK100ll/MK3+ not packed yet
Looking good, homie!! And you can thank Skyline315 and my buddy Josh (who isn't a head-fier) for the pics last time... Or at least the good ones. I'm a lowly cellphone camera guy m'self.

Hope you save some of it on retaining a divorce attorney or on a full deneuralizer treatment for the wifey...

Any idea where we will meet Fri night, and what time do we start Sat, I would PM Theogenes but I know he's really busy.
Errm, I may or may not have failed to call those places yet. I'll get it knocked out after my meeting today (early afternoon) and let y'all know who will tak our reservation! (Sorry for the delay. Life is definitely over capacity on insanity and workload at the moment
).

Checking the equipment that is supposed to be there, I have some goodies that aren't on the list. For headphones, I have the TH600 and TH900. I can also bring my Hi-Fi M8, Fostex HPA8, and iPod with over 70gb of lossless music. I can supply an extension cord and Furman 8 outlet power conditioner.
I'm excited to have the opportunity to sample the fine gear there, especially the Grado PS1000, T1 and HD800. I've never been to a meet, but have lived vicariously through other HF'ers experiences at them. Looking forward to meeting ya'll, and checking out some great gear.
Oh, and since I'm coming from Knoxville, I've gotta say it....Go VOLS!!
Awesome, man!! It'll be great to have you there!! I've wanted to hear those Fostex cans quite a bit and see what all the fuss is about, so that's killer!
And you are obviously a man of great intelligence and refinement by looking at your team of choice, so I applaud you, sir.
GBO!!!!

I am getting pumped up for the Meet!!! Theogenes, do we know where we are going for supper and the time? Would you mind sending a PM with your cell number?
See above. I've dismally failed up to this point to secure a reservation, but plan on squeaking in and redeeming myself at the last minute. I'll post what's up later today!

I was really looking forward to this weekend and even asked off work to go, but I just cannot afford the expense of traveling. Please do a post meet impression thread with pics so I know how it goes...will DEFINITELY be at the next one! Cheers yall!
Aw, boo bears, man!! Hate that you won't be there!! We'll try to send good vibes in your general direction

I can bring some mid-fi stuffs like
Headphones
Sennheiser HD650
Audeze LCD-2.1
HiFiMan HE-500
Ultrasone Signature DJ
Kenwood KH-K1000
Amplifiers/Sources
Burson Audio HA-160D
by thw way...What time does the meeting start?
Very cool, man, welcome!! The dealio officially starts at 10am, but a couple of us will be there setting up around 9:15-9:30 if you want to come then. I actually owned the SigDJ for a while, they're definitely the best basshead cans I've ever heard, so if anybody is interested in what a really good set of closed headphones that can cave your skull in with bass sound like, those are the ones, lol!! See you there!!
Apologies for the spotty communication recently, guys-- hopefully by 2-2:30 today I'll be able to focus exclusively back on the meet and life in general, lol! The good news is that this puts me one step closer to possibly living in Franklin, which would make setting up events like this considerably easier in the future... So wish me luck!!
I'll get the restaurant reservations nailed down and holla back at y'all today. Can't WAIT, guys!!!!!!!!!!
Edit: the HF posting system $#!t the bed there when I posted that, so apologies for any funky formatting, etc.
