  I'm in the market for an upgraded cable for my he-560 with the old crummy screw-in-style connectors. I've decided to give up after 5 months of waiting for the Zoetic to arrive.

I'd contact Lindsay at Impact Audio Cables. He's on Etsy. Great builid quality, lots of customization options, nice prices, and not a bad turnaround time either.

Also of note, I am also bringing my Pioneer DV-578A SACD player with the few SACD discs I have. Really, I wanted just a CD transport to use to compare the Maganvox CD decoder vs. my Denon DA-500, but I figure I can bring the few SACD discs I have (Nora Jones, Pink Floyd, Peter Frampton, and a sampler disc) in case anyone was interested.
 
You guys have fun tonight and I see you guys in the morning.

Do y'all need any help with setup or anything tomorrow morning. This will be my first meet and hope to listen to various setups. I don't have hardware to offer, but I am willing to help out where I can if needed - be it manual labor or just bringing donuts / coffee. Let me know.

Hey all,
   I am going to bring my ZMF Blackwoods to the meet but unfortunately I have run into a little problem.  My cable has starting acting up and the right ear starts going out.  If you wiggle the cable near the headphone jack it comes back sometimes but it's pretty finicky.  Unfortunately, this just happened this week and although ZMF has sent a replacement, it hasn't arrived yet.  I don't really plan on listening to it at the meet very much but I thought others might like to.  So, if anyone has an extra Audeze terminated cable, would you mind bringing it along so it can be used at the meet?  Thanks!

Overestimated the rapidity of my last errand and underestimated traffic. Be about 5:45 before I'm there. Don't drink all the beer. Srsly.

Hey Everyone.  I am going to be there tomorrow.  I've finally got things settled enough that I can attend one of our meets.  I didn't get off work in time to make it up to dinner tonight. I'm close enough that I can just drive up in the morning.  I am planning to bring some of my gear that I have with me here.  Some will be for sale.  I also have other gear that isn't here.  I can bring it, but I will have to drive an additional four hours to pick it up.
 
If you are interested in any of the following items, let me know so I can make as much arrangement as possible to pick it up before the meet tomorrow.  Items are as follows:
 
Emotiva Mini-X A100
 
BTG Audio Custom Cables:
 
8-Strand SPC Audeze Cable 4ft. 4-Pin XLR (Round Braided)
BTG Audio 8-Strand SPC 4-Pin XLR to Banana Plugs 3ft. (Round Braided)
 
Other Items I'm Bringing:
 
AKG K712 Pro
Denon AH-D2000 w/ Martin Custom Audio Macadamia Cups & BTG Audio Cable (For Sale)
Darth Beyer V3XD w/ Royal Mahogany Cups (For Sale)
Hifiman HM-601
 
Anyways enough about stuff I'm bringing.  I look forward to finally getting to meet you all tomorrow.  Let me know as quickly as you can if you want those items I'll need to go pick up.

I could bring my soldering iron and gear and try to repair it if you'd like.  I'm having similar issues with the cable on my D2000's as well that need to be fixed.

Wildcatsare1 - Thank you for offer to share your table. That is very gracious and will take you up on it. How early are you showing up to set up so I can be there to help? You can tell I am noob by that question. I know the meet starts at 10:00, but don't know if that is when everyone is showing up to setup or if everyone is expected to be setup by 10:00. Perhaps I am just overthinking it.

I'm a no-go this time around. :frowning2:
 
Too much work to do.  With any luck at all I'll catch the next one.  You guys have fun.

Check out the first post.  Listed time is now 11 AM to 5 pm.  I plan to be there around 10 to set up.  I am bringing a boatload of equipment and my DAC is supposed to have an hour warmup before use.

  How about this for something out of the ordinary?!
 
THE WIFE WILL BE ATTENDING. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Make of that what you will.

 
Mine, too.  Her name is Annette.  She is a supporter.

Thank you for the clarification. Not sure how I missed the time change. I will get there early also.
