Theres a LIRR station (Bayside Stop, Port Washington Line) about 10-15 mins walk away from the meet. I live about 1 minute from the station so if you need any directions, feel free to ask.

Then maybe we talk about removing gear but I doubt it comes to that.

I think we can spare some space for the RTR!

We could hang chains from the ceiling!

As another thought, there are always the akward corner spaces, where nobody can really put anything because of inaccesability.

We could make an exception to the "no reserved tables" trend, and reserve this awkward and often wasted space for Nate. The PSU goes in the corner because nobody needs to spin knobs or put CDs in it, and the amp and CD player go out towards the center of the table. WOOT! less wasted space, more better-er gear!

 

[vcoheda]

someone mentioned they will/may bring an HE90/HEV90.

we def need to make room for that!

 

[n_maher]

I like the idea that I am the perfect fit for wasted space.

And Ari, I'll see about a table-top rack setup. I had actually considered something like that but I was not sure anyone else would understand the insanity. I apologize for having underestimated you.

I've also put feelers out to a couple of manufacturers/MOTs about attending the meet. If I hear any news I'll post it.

We could spin it:
You are the only head-fier capable of using otherwise unusable space. Your efficient use of table-space offsets your systems electrical draw

The heat thrown by your amp also serves to offset the fuel costs for the hotel! Such a nice guy.

Thats all the room I've got in my system for amps and sources. It was a really ugly scene for the time between when I got a TT and when I built the rack.

Pure Crap, just let the guy squeeze in somewhere and save the decent space for a really white pair of apple buds......................

I'll point him to thread, he hasn't been around HF much lately.

 

[SiBurning]

gear list

Apologies for not getting it up sooner. I did warn that updates would be slow for this meet.

davidhunternyc,
Are you in? You're on the list.

 

[erikzen]

Looking at the list I don't see too many vendors.

I've spoken with both Justin and Tyll about the meet so they are aware and looking into whether or not it's possible for them to attend. I'll drop Craig (Eddie Current) a line this week and make sure he knows it's happening. I'm sure someone has told Ray and I'd be shocked if he didn't show up. The guys from Woo are usually in for NY meets too. Who else would people like to see?

Sorry, I guess I missed that. Looking at SiBurning's page I only picked up Woo Audio. Thanks for pointing it out.

Woo
Moon
Red Wine
Head-Direct

That's a pretty good showing.

I do hope Ray can make it.

And of course it would be a pleasure to have HeadAmp and HeadRoom there. Then we'd have all the heads in one room.
