@Slater - I'm having car issues that I'm hoping to resolve before Saturday. I'll try to be there at least for two hours (not sure if I can stay longer) ... maybe 12-2pm if I need to get car stuff done in the morning. If things go as planned I'll try to be there 11-2pm and I will bring:

Schiit Mjolnir 2
Schiit Mjolnir 1 (to sell for cheap)
Schiit Gungnir MB + USB Gen 5
Sennheiser HD800 stock (balanced cable)

CA Andromedas

Pro Co Sound Switch Witch - NOT BRINGING

**I will possibly not have a good source/laptop w/music to bring**

Everyone,

I was recently contacted by Bill, sales manager at Audio Technica. He would like to lend us some headphones for the meet; given we can work out shipping and everything before Saturday. He asked me what we would be interested in hearing. I understand there will be some newer people as well as people who have been listening to high end gear for years attending the meet. With that in mind, I suggested the MSR7 and R70X for the cheaper end of the lineup and then an open-back and a closed-back from the upper end of their lineup.

Are there any other models that anyone would like to hear that I should ask him about?

Current list and please note if this is your stuff you mentioned that your bringing. A folding chair, table , powerstrip and extension cord will be helpful since we have alot of stuff listed that people are bringing.

I will update this next Sunday so Axel can see what stuff he can fill in from the HEad-Fi office. I am excited that we will be having a great event .
My Office is in a State Farm Office building and the entrance is on the south endo the building .

I would recommend to get off at the Austin Blvd exit on I-75 due to some other construction. and go south on 741 then my office will be on your left after 4 traffic lights.

Is there a chance we can get a a2000z? I don't have too many experience with Audio Technica but I am really interested in this closed back headphone. Especially I read the reviews seems it is pretty good for Jpop and BGMs. Thanks.

I did specifically mention that one when I listed some of their higher-end headphones. I'll let him know that someone else would like to hear it as well.

This is going to be a mighty fine meet :)

I'm assuming there will be wifi? I have at least 5 laptops/phones I can bring with Tidal so we can have lossless everywhere

We will be full and spilling out into the hallway if everyone comes and this will be a good thing to have. I am excited on all the gear and if there is interest can go to to 3pm if people haven't heard everything they want to hear.

Rick

This may be a terrible time to ask but may I join this fine meet?

Equipment I can bring:

DT770 Pro 80Ohm
Modi2U + Magni2U
Laptop+Tidal
Hifiman HE400i
Oppo HA2 (non-SE)
AudioQuest NightOwl (if I get it in time - snailmail soon to be in transit)...
Topping DX7 (also if I get it in time - snailmail soon to be in transit)...
Chairs, couple power strips, long extension cable

@leon995
Are we really going to have an SR009 and a Focal Utopia at this place?! O_O It would be a dream come true to hear either of these things.

Wait, why did I pay $700 in hotel and airfare to attend RMAF again? This is a 3.5 hour drive for me! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Looking forward to this, but will we have enough room? Seems like most insurance offices I've been in wouldn't hold all this, lol.

Here is what Audio Technica is sending for the meet. I think he hit everything on my list plus the AD700.
