I have a request for the meet. I would love to hear the Ray Samuels Predator and iBasso P4, if anyone has these amps. After reading a bunch of reviews, these two amps are at the top of my wishlist for portable amps. If you are coming to the meet and have these amps, please bring them! Thank you!
 
Wow, the meet is tomorrow. I'm getting pretty excited about going! My wife needs the car in the morning, so I probably won't be there until after 12:30.

I might arrive at or a bit after 8AM, is that OK?
 
Been packing stuff up, first meet so I didn't realize how hard it is to get the stuff mobile.  My hat is off to those guys that exhibit on a regular basis.  The audio shows must be a massive endeavor with huge equipment if it is this much effort for a few components.

Totally okay, the 7:30am is just a luxury since it also takes time to load in and get set-up...

I've got a newbie question for someone that was there last year.  Does Schitt bring stock with them for sale or is this show more to sample their items and then you order online later?    Also, not just for Schitt, but do the dealers in general take credit cards or should I bring cash?   I'll bring some cash anyway, but I didn't know if I need to bring $10k instead of the usual $5k a player like me usually rolls with...LOL. 

 

[Raideen]

^That's a good question. I'd like to know too.

 

[icebone]

Will be there!

 

[PurpleAngel]

I'll be there
It's less then 20 minutes from where I live.

Last year no one that I know of was really selling directly there.  The only exception might have been the audiologist.  UE picked up the tab (and kept the impressions) if you signed up to buy their customs.  They took down your contact info and the rest of the transaction took place the following week.  If you just wanted the impressions to send off to someone else, there was a fee.  I forgot what it was but it was right in the ballpark of any other audiologist.
 
Others vendors had coupon codes to order from their website.  But generally this wasn't the place to buy stuff.

Mkubota1, thanks for your answer.

Right.  I heard the Lyr at the Bay Area Meet last year and ordered one from the Schitt web site when I got home.  Almost as good as buying on site.

Last year if you wanted an extra set of impressions it was $50, IIRC. The audiologist wasn't' set up to take CC payment, but I gave her my card number and it all worked out. I'd bring cash or a check if you're planning to get additional impressions.

Totally. My first meet as well. I'm packed too and my neighbors think I'm moving out. And I thought packing 4 boxes would be easy peasy. How do I fit an elephant in a matchbox? An elephant wearing 3 headphones that is.
 

 

[Lurkumaural]

Yes, the process of organizing and boxing my goods reminded me fondly of the trade show days.  Exciting and nerve-wracking all at once.

 

[Clayton SF]

Done. Now I will have to take these down 6 flights of stairs. There is no elevator in my building.
Labor of Love!
See y'all tomorrow!
