Looking at the list, I probably would bring atleast one source, as the source to cans ratio is atleast 2:1 in favor of the cans. I'd also bring one if you actually are considering buying one of the peices of equipment lsited so that you can hear it to a certain degree on the system you'd be using. Of coruse in certain cases it may not be practical.

This is super childish, but I'm really bubbling with excitement right now. Can't wait to hear a bunch of stuff and to talk with you guys.

Well, I'm in your demographics. I feel old at every meet

I feel like I should be picking up ayt999 and gear in an amoured car

.

 

[neilvg]

i'll bring my dv50 and my pioneer dv45

 

[Voltron]

Don't worry utep10, ayt999 tipped me off to your profile and I discovered that I am exactly 9 months older than you to the day.

Since it seems we are staying in SF, and people are concerned about the safety of their Preciouses, I have hired the Hells Angels for security. If they're good enough for the Rolling Stones, then they are good enough for us. **Now, I am really showing my age. Altamont, anyone?**

awsome! im bringing my AK-47 just in case. if anything happens call my cell and i'll come shooting! i just hope i dont shoot out any of your gorgeous tubes

hey fellas, i think more than listening to specific gear, this meet is just about listening in general. gear, music, people. the experience as a whole. i dont know about you guys, but i have to hold myself back around most of my friends or they just get totally lost. "its not wine!"

its nice to talk to others who are as compulsive about sound as i am...

 

[PFKMan23]

I'll agree that this should be more about the experience as a whole (getting to know other enthusiasts and also listeing to gear and all that. Howver I do find it kind of ironic thatwe're hobbyists of an activity that essentially allows us to seclude ourselfs and is an otherwise solo experience... That said I'm veery interested in talking at length with some of you guys.

LOL. I totally understand you man. This is going to be a fun meet. I can feel it from our posts. None and I mean NONE of my friends get the headphone fetish <

>. But that's fine with me, they can all go to hell. hehehehe.

Dude, I may be 25, but I'm not like living in a cave in the himalayas <that might be interesting though, i've heard some stuff about those caves

> Hehehe, altamount... I love that song, Sympathy for the Devil... I also love Aleister Crowley.. to bad he was insane. Too bad I'm evil. Hmm.. you sure you want me to come on saturday.. I have to add that I generally carry a pool cue with me wherever I go.

Edit: It occurs to me that probably only Voltron will get this post. Oh Well.. showing my rock obsessivness.

Forget the Hells Angels, you're hired!

Crowley might have been crazy, but Jimmy Page thought enough of him to buy his house and to quote some of his satanic gibberish on Zeppelin albums.

Well, folks, the meet is tomorrow, and I am looking forward to putting faces with these fake names of ours. You should all have my numbers and the necessary info, but shoot me a PM if you lost track of it.

What??? Your name is not Voltron!? ARGH! the Lies... the LIES!

Awfully quiet on the day before the meet. Everybody still on board? I don't think the same fate awaits us, but the meet for Cinncinati that was set for tomorrow got cancelled last minute. Bummer for those guys. I think I will invite them to come to ours instead.

So, I have laid in provisions of junk food, beverages of various kinds, and random snack fare. Hopefully the fog will clear up for the afternoon like it did today so people can hang on the patio for some fresh air.

It seems that gremlins have consumed or carried away all but one free power strip from my house. True that one is a big Monster HT surge protector strip but that is not enough. Please bring one or two strips if you got 'em. I also could find only one large guage extension cord, although ayt999 previously said he was bringing a couple of those too. Toss one in your trunk if you have one in your garage just in case.

I guess that's it for now. See you all tomorrow.

 

[ayt999]

I'm packing.... so many heavy things.

I'll be sure to bring the two 16AWG 50 ft extension things. should be enough right? I don't want to use them and prefer a wall outlet nearby, but others can use the extensions.

I packed four cheater plugs just in case too.

 

[PFKMan23]

I'm on board. I think it's going to be one of those sleepless nights for me though...

 

[Illah]

I'm still coming - I'll pack a few power strips, maybe even a AR power filtering one. I'll also burn a couple CD's, some from MP3's which sucks, but alot of my electronica collection basically doesn't even exist in CD form.

--Illah

 

[Illah]

Also this is a longshot, but does anyone want me to bring my Denon cassette player? It's a pretty nice one if anyone still has those lying around (I have it because all my old mixtapes needed to be digitized).

--Illah

 

[Voltron]

Bring the deck if you feel like it Illah. I don't think we will be short of music in CD or MP3 form but what the heck. i have a box of cassettes you could sift through...
