Where do you live? Feel free to PM me.
My schedule doesn't allow me attend (unfortunately) but I'd like to contribute some gear if possible. Maybe we can work something out where an attending member can meet me the week prior to pick up the stuff? Mdraluck23 lives pretty close to me.
Anything in my profile is pretty much fair game. Some of it is out on loan but I'll see what I can do.
Here's a run down on the equipment I intend to bring.
Sources
Squeezebox Touch (FLAC on an ext. USB drive) --> Benchmark DAC1 Pre|Wyred4Sound DAC2
Amps/Headphones
STAX SRM-727II --> SR-009
Schiit Lyr(x2)|Pioneer SX-950 --> HE-6|LCD-2 v2 (Custom)
Comparisons
Although meet conditions frequently not ideal for A/B comparisons, it will be possible, with this setup, to make several direct comparisons between various pieces of equipment I will have on hand. For some, this may prove to be an interesting opportunity.
Here are a few possible combinations:
Amps: Schiit Lyr vs. Pioneer SX-950
DACs: Wyred4Sound DAC2 vs. Benchmark DAC1 Pre
Headphones: SR-009s v.s. HE-6 vs. LCD-2
Tubes(w/Lyr): Siemens E188CC vs. GE 6BZ7(Stock)
Power cords(w/Lyr): Power cord "x" vs. standard power cord
CEE TEE, thanks once again for all your efforts (BTW... I'll need about 44" of table space for the gear).
Happy Holidays to all... looking forward to seeing everyone at the meet next year.
Good to hear you're going to drag your 950! Maybe I'll leave mine behind!
I have a 650 that's in rougher shape, but it works.... I might bring it along to see if anyone new to the hobby might want to lug it home for free.
^Great, @jazzfan!
I am really interested in the Wyred4Sound vs. DAC1 Pre and also comparing my Old DAC1 with HPA1 with the HPA2 of the Pre...thanks!
Quiet room, then?
