Hey,

I just want to make sure, will the stuff be set up at 8:30? My friends and I can only come during the first half of the meet and it would suck if we come in at 8:30 and everybody is just starting to get set up. I'm assuming the exhibitors arrive much before then to get ready at 8:30 for everybody.

Most venders do show up a bit early, around 8ish to setup and some head-fiers get up that early as well.

What's the time frame in which you can be there? Most of everything will be setup by 9

Does anyone have a pair of balanced interconnects that I can borrow for the meet?  I forgot that I only have one pair.  Looks like I need another if I want my Beta to be the preamp.

Ok, this is weird. I just finished transferring the 96khz Gaucho files to my iPad! Yay! What's weird is that I've always understood that the iPad could not play back a 96khz file! Well in the Onkyo app that I transferred them into, I can listen to them! Through the internal speakers no less! Not that I'm complaining but that shouldn't work, should it? Just got to get my lightening to USB adapter out. Do I need to bring an USB cable?

As for the meet, where do we park? I'm bringing $30 to cover admission and parking, I just want to know where to go. Getting lost... Not my thing.
2 days! WooHOO!! Only thing that's torture is I can't afford to buy stuff. And I want to! Hoping I win something at the raffle too.

Most if not all exhibitors should be up and ready to rock and roll at 8:30am!

Is the parking right out front?

 

[Tonyflo]

Please RVSP me, space permitting. I have LCD-X I can bring, if that is helpful.

My understanding is that the Onkyo app is pretty effing awesome.  IIRC, it also plays DSD files, albeit via software DSD-to-PCM conversion?
