Also, do NOT underestimate the ability of people to be cool and friendly in person.  Regardless of how anyone acts online, I have rarely encountered people that are more friendly, kind, and helpful than Head-Fiers IRL.  It's hard to understand this if you've never been to a meet, but just take my word for it.

Oh, absolutely. There is definitely a social aspect to this... I figured the nerves were related mostly to that, so I tried to kind of re-frame the meet in another perspective to draw anxiety away from that.

People are really nice at these meets, for sure.
 
If you like a system, post a writeup about it! I would also encourage people to listen to items that maybe aren't so popular or "hot."

.  I'll bring my favorite cheap-whiskey (Lismore) for people to try.
 
Also, I'm going to bring my rackmount furman-power conditioner for anyone near my table to use.

I just ordered a Schiit USB Gen 2 board for my Bifrost.
This should make it easy for folks to plug in their own source music.

Yup!  Srsly, the first person you say "hi" to is pretty much going to make that anxiety go away.

  That's a Head-Fi secret you see?  We rant here so that we can be ultra-nice in person.

Music Maniac AH-D600 Over Ear HP

Urban Raver AH-D400 Over Ear HP

Holy moly, that's like their entire Music Maniac and Urban Raver line-ups... with the exception of the AH-C250.  Ironically, that's the only IEM from them that I haven't heard.

A very stupid question that I should know the answer to.
 
I use my MacBook Pro as a source to my Schiit Bifrost using Toslink cable.   Mac, easy, fine, plug it in and forget it.
I ordered the Schiit USB Gen 2 for the show because I figured USB is more prevalent.
 
I didn't think about the sources.  What will folks be walking around with source wise?
Laptops to the DAC or stuff like MP3 players direct to an amp?
 
My amp only has RCA inputs.
Should I make an adapter?
