Oh no! Was very excited about qualia

Well I can still bring it if you really want, but it probably won't fit unless your head is ginormous.

yeah! We'll have lots of these at the meet. My vintage orthos won't make it though, they're still out of town for highly experimental modding procedures.

Last minute ride complications - if anybody is planning to be coming down from/through northern SF (I'm in Marina/Cow Hollow) or can make the detour and has room for one more (with some gear) in their car, I would greatly appreciated the ride, thanks.

No need for a ride for me anymore. Will be making the drive up with my girlfriend. Really excited..will be my first meet.

Got to start breaking down and packing up when I get home... will be a long evening... everyone come and listen to my rigs (a lot)... make it worth my while...

Cheers,

First post here from a long time lurker - As wmjh mentioned earlier the enthusiasm is contagious, I am looking forward to attending this meet as well. I'm a newbie to the world of cans (my first serious headphone purchase is a AT-M50S not too long ago - thanks to all the reviews here on head-fi), and as an avid DIY'er and an audio enthusiast, I could use this opportunity to meet with the peeps and their cool gear. See ya'll on Saturday !

Just stepped off the plane and am very excited about my first headfi meet tomorrow. I need to get some rest first...

 

[Icarium]

I think Justin brought his small size pair so I will not be bringing my pair...

I'll have a couple friends with me as well.. hrm i just added up the attendees and it seems like there will be 71+ people there? what the hell? how did that happen

Raffle tickets are bought, amp ready to be raffled.

Approximate value of amp is $150

Raffle tickets will be $5 each, think that sounds fair.

Raffle Draw will be held at 3pm.

I obviously won't be able to stand at the door for the entire time selling tickets so tickets will be sold at my table and I'll try to grab one close to the door and be easy to spot.

If it's possible, I'd love to reserve table 1 for myself.

I just received a FedEx from Todd with the latest TTVJ portable headphone amp and USB dac designed by Pete Millett! Todd sent it for the meet so I will have it available for people to try out with their portable rigs or desktop rigs because it has plenty of drive for full-sized cans. The groovy 32-step attenuator with color-changing LED to show you the volume level is very cool, and the amp is thinner than mu iPhone 3GS, about the same width, and just a little shorter so it makes a great pairing. Here are a couple pics of the amp-only version from CanJam:

Thanks Todd!

I also received a FedEX the other day. Todd sent me the FET-A loaner for the meet. So far, I think it sounds fantastic.

Does anyone have an extra source they could bring for the FET-A? My imod works, but given the other equipment there, it will leave the FET-A at a disadvantage. Or if I could add the FET-A to someone's table who has multiple outputs or something that would work too.

 

[bobglaub]

Are there any near-by hotels that are cheap/not scary that anyone could recommend? ha..I guess were gonna make a weekend out of it.

I have never attended a Head-Fi meet before. Is it hard to get a chance to listen to a rig? I can imagine members bringing a plethora of amps, dacs, and headphones, but is there an adequate number of sources to allow everyone the time to test a majority of the rigs before the meet is over? Should I bring my iPod w/LOD, and my laptop (I have no special cables for connections to DAC/amps)?
