I may be able to help you with the latter.  I can bring my spare MBP and a hard drive with about 50gb of music.
 
I too have been chatting with the MOTs...I MAY have some good Schiit to bring along.  I will also have Trevor's (Norse Audio) flagship 8-conductor cables for LCD-2's...balanced + 1/4" adapter.

Does anyone have a half decent tape deck lying around? I just got some tapes and want to really hear them.


Do what I did.  A friend just lent me all the cassettes for the Stephen King Dark Tower series, so I bought an old car with a cassette deck in it.

Have the vendors that will attend been confirmed?  If so, which ones are coming?  Thanks.

Is anybody bringing some Ultrasones? I would like to hear a few, preferably the Pro 900s or 2900s. 
 
BTW, good joke, erikzen. When I get a car I will try to get a tape player in it. 
 
I have some CDs that are audiophile quality, lots that aren't but I love, and some LPs. If I can make the meet, I will have some very good reference points as far as music goes, which is critical IMO to make sure you are hearing what you think you are hearing. Not that it matters a whole bunch, but I can definitely rest assured that I know what I am listening to.

Hey, you guys have room for one more? Just found out that I'll probably be able to come! Here's what I can bring:


Future Sonics Atrios (v2 and mg7 drivers)
Panasonic HJE900's
Sony MDR-D66SL "Eggos"
Audio Technica ATH-M50S
Fiio E5
Fiio E7
Cowon D2(+'d)


I'm not 100% sure I can make it or for how long, but I'm really hoping I can.  Is there still space for another?

You can take my spot. PayPal me $20 and its yours.

Aaron,
 
Will the hotel provide us some place cards?


 
No, usually someone prints them up or we use ones from staples. Unfortunately, I have been away for 3 weeks with a new job. I'm actually in Northern Maine right now.
 
I purposely picked up a call in Mineola for Friday, which should only take a half a day, so they can't send me away. It would be ludicrious to miss my own party.

If I can, I might just try to make it this year. 
 
I have this strong desire to wander aimlessly and plug my new W1000X into things.
 
No, I won't specify what sort of things.

Two questions:
 
1.) Anyone coming from Jersey?  I live just north of Morristown and am trying to decide if I should take public transportation or drive (~2 hours vs ~1 hour, according to google maps).  Anyone know how bad the traffic tends to be on a Saturday coming from my area?
 
2.) Could somebody, anybody puuuuuuulleeeeeeeezzzzeee bring some single flange tips that fit Future Sonics Atrios that they wouldn't mind me trying out/buying off them?  I'm on a warpath to find the best tips for the Atrios.  Tips that would fit include most Shure, Klipsch, Etymotic, Westone....my findings will be written up here: http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/536912/review-future-sonics-atrios-comparison-between-different-tips

If I come, is there room for my receiver and turntable? I could put the turntable on top of the receiver, as it works fine that way. It is about 18 inches wide, so please anybody tell me if there will be a problem.
