Not exactly the best time for me since things are really starting to pick up at my work. I won't know if I'll be able to make it until the very last days before the meet.

If I do make it, my gear list would be as follows:

Senn 580 with Meier Audio replacement cord

Mint tin KGCA with a proper power supply now, not the damn switchmode PSU I had last time

Asstd homemade cables

I'd say there's a pretty good chance I'll make it, things haven't gotten as hectic as I feared at work so I should be ok. I also got my hands on a pair of Grado 225 headphones which I'd like to try out on Biggie's tube amp.

Also, when exactly is "afternoon"? Is it any time after 12pm or is there a specific time you have in mind?

nec cdr-602
modded art di/o dac

maxed out pimeta
zu cable ash

zu cable pivot
akg k271 studio w/ zu cable mobius

and of course some good music

I broke my amp biasing it. So all I have right now is a lowly ra-1. So no more meet.. people are still welcome to come hear my gear though (when its all fixed). ^^

Since the last meet my cd player was modded a bit, I got new tubes and my amp had its grounding changed so it became quieter. Nows its REALLY quiet doh..

Biggie.

Yeah, I checked and only the greyhound goes to waterloo university... and it takes forever and there is only one bus.

The coach canada bus only goes as far as the Kitchener station except for the bus that gets in at 3:30pm which goes all the way to the university...

I'm still interested in going, it's looking very likely that I can... and could pick someone up from the bus stop if so.

Equipment I would be inclined to bring:

Linn Axis turntable, w/ GramAmp 1 Phono stage & a bunch of LPs
CMoy, w/ 2227 opamp & 1000uF caps
SR-125's
Sony MDR-V6
MIT T3 interconnects
