Aaron, sorry I won't be able to make this meet. I swapped into being on call that weekend to help a colleague.

Gear list updated. Not many people listed gear yet.

Let me know (here or by PM) if you have any updates to the page or ideas and tips. I always do the list too fast and copy-paste wrong, (usually "immtbiker L" gets writ 'cause of Doug) so you might want to check your own gear if you care.

I would've liked to be able to join in for yet another NY meet but right now I just can't swing the travel costs for 3 events 3 weekends in a row (the other two being the 2/27 NorCal meet and Axpona). And even if I could, none of the flight options that I checked out really work either.

But since I can't be there in person, I'd like to send out some gear to a trustworthy NY-area HF-er to display at the meet. It'd be one of these: Head-Direct HE-5 re-cabled with APureSound V3 (either balanced or single-ended), Stax SR-404LE, or SPL Auditor. The trustworthy HF-ers know who they are - I've met most of them.

Please note that I would prefer to not cover return shipping - instead of doing that I'll let the gear recipient audition the gear for a while (2 weeks at most). (But if the recipient wants the return shipping to be covered then my offer of auditioning the gear is retracted.)

2/15/10 edit: offer to send gear for the meet is retracted.

This is awesome. This will be my first ever event. Finally, and opportunity to hear, feel, smell and touch all this headphone gear up front and personal. So I can finally make a clear and educated buying decision.

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
