NoVa/DC/MD Meet: June 18th
Jun 11, 2011 at 9:13 PM Post #76 of 112
I'm switching up gear - I really don't like traveling with the MAD and my grados are out getting re-cabled so I'll bring my Apex Peak/Volcano, Audio-GD NF1 and LCD-2 instead.  If someone is interested I can bring a FIIO E9 (amp) and E7 (portable DAC/AMP).  I still haven't decided what I'm going to do with 2 good tube amps.
 
In addition to potentially having a headphone amp for sale soon I just got a nice toslink cable today that I'm going to send back (I just wanted to compare it with what I had) and an almost new Marantz AVR that I'll be putting up for sale in about 2 weeks - in case anyone was looking for these things.

Give one to your favorite teenage Head-Fi'er that is arranging this meet. XD
 
On a serious note, I may be interested in the Marantz receiver and the Toslink as well come to think of it. My interest in contingent upon cost of course.

I should be able to make it on Saturday. I'll bring my Audio-GD Roc and Ref 5, and my LCD2 and D7000. All my music is on my home server, so I'll probably just bring a laptop and stream music off Mog, or else borrow someone else's source. And I'm definitely in for some post-meetup drinks.

Got damn.
 
No one else can bring an LCD-2 from now on. Hearing the LCD-2 last time is what is making me get out of headphones. It is as good as it gets and I can't afford to build a system around one. XD

It is weird how the LCD-2 seems to be taking over esp since they are rediculously expensive - worth the hype though.  I never even listened to them during the last meet - I had no interest and there was no way I would ever pay that much for phones.  Then I bought some anyway.  They have replaced most of my other headphones - but to get to my point I still like my grado 325's and the LCD-2's can't replace them (for me) - so there may be an affordable set of phone outs there that can give you more of what you want w/o having to get the dream set. 
 
Then you just have to make sure you don't listen to anything else!

Well unfortunately it looks like I will not be getting my a10 preamp done in time for the meet. Mouser had a few key parts backordered. I will still be there with the rest of my stuff though, will just have to use software volume control for my B22

Would anybody be interested in purchasing headphones and amps at the meet?  I couple of amps, and several headphones(IEMs, portable) I want to sell.  I can bring them if anybody is interested in purchasing them.
