It goes by so fast. I remember thinking that there was no way I'd stay the whole time.

 

 
Now imagine last year, but with three times the number of exhibitors, including Sennheiser.  Add to that the raffle, which will make all the participating exhibitors' tables busy as heck while people try to get their raffle cards filled-up.  And of course, you know more people this time, so a fair amount of those eight hours (if you don't eat lunch) will be spent hanging out.  If you can manage to listen to half the gear that you think you'll hear, you had a good day.
 
Last year, I had time to listen to one rig and one rig only so I had to make it count.  It was the Abyss rig that purrin brought.  That was it.  I wonder which rig I'll listen to this year?

I envy you guys. Look forward to pics of members. Always good to tie faces to screen names.

 
If I do make it, I will be cleverly disguised as a big old balding fat guy, with a hat and sunglasses on.

My Analog Square Paper TU-05 is off the workbench and shipping 2 day air from Japan. If there are no problems with customs I'll be demoing it on my half table.

Ooh, let's hook it up to an AK240 and see what the pairing can do.

Hey Warren,
My usual setup is an AK120>Meridian Director. I would be very curious to see if the AK240 is better.

I haven't heard the Director yet, but I'm quite impressed with the AK240 over the AK120 (as you can tell from our review).  That being said, I've got high hopes that it will, and as a matter of principle we'll need to find out.

Just realized this meet was in my backyard, registered! It's going to be my first meet, looking forward to it!

Question, it seems like reading through the thread that there's almost too much gear! Will there still be space to set stuff down? I'd like to bring my Stax SR-202s, an eXStatA, and a gamma2, along with some proof-of-concept hardware for an FPGA-based FLAC player that I've been working on. I can't wait to see all of the gear out there, sounds amazing.
