ugh.. am on the fence on this one. 
 
Would love to fly in and avoid the drive, but then no gear to bring along. Would love to be able to bring my electrostat rig with me.
 
Will decide in a week and half and see how i feel about driving down and back. If I drive down, then i would love a full table in a quiet room.

Hi @sachu,
 
Not sure we will have a full table in the quiet room...speaking with @wiatrob tonight, who might be taking the small table in the quiet room and bringing Cavalli amps.
 
There is a little bit more going on behind the scenes, PM me this weekend if you think you would like to attend.
 
Thanks,
CEE TEE

The post ^ makes me wonder if there'd be space to hold a little soldering tutorial for people who'd like to enter the world of DIY.



It'd actually be really cool at this meet (or maybe the next one) to have a table and maybe a presentation/tutorial for DIYers. 
 
Perhaps someone could teach us how to make our own LOD's or reterminate cables, etc etc. Relatively simple stuff. Maybe a live tutorial on how to Markl mod Denons, or build Cmoy amps even. lol.

That would be a nice video to post on the forums here.

Believe it or not I've done this kind of thing before. I would suggest something very simple, as anything with more than a couple of parts would end up eating up the whole day. If someone could bring a video camera with a macro lens and a big screen or projector I would be happy to spend maybe half an hour to 45 minutes demonstrating techniques for attaching and soldering various types of connections.

Had a recent change in plans and decided to attend this meet after all - booked my flight & hotel today. Not really attending for the gear (though I'm sure there'll be lots of nice stuff), moreso attending to meet new Head-Fiers and catch up with some familiar faces. Pretty sure this is going to be my last-ever headphone meet, well unless independent CanJams return at some point in the future (that's a hint)....
 
Will have my camera to help make sure the meet is visually well-documented.

Not bringing or sending any gear btw. Though I was originally thinking about sending my BHSE, I see n3rdling will have that covered now.
