We are having the 1st meet of the season at BottleHeadquarters on Bainbridge Island. This may be one of the most unique meets. Most of us take a ferry to Bainbridge Island. We are greeted by some of the nicest hosts on the planet. Queen Eileen an Doc B of Bottlehead with the awesome support of their crew. We have had many awesome meets here. If this is your first meet, this is the one to make. You will have a great time. Bring your gear and a friend. We will prolly have a pre meet and an aftermeet to get all your questions answered. Veterans, you know this is one of our favorite meets. Here it goes:

Sweet! I just realized i had the ultimate brain fart in that I was thinking this was next weekend (hence jumping the thread post)... Like April wasn't going to happen. Lol
This is great as I will have my Massdrop Cavalli MCTH amp by then.

Will change my sig to send redirects to this thread!

Kinda proud of this one though, gonna have to plug it in:

@ericr we should try to get a mini going if possible, been awhile since one and those are usually the best quiet listen and great convos

Hello Seattle area Head-Fi'ers! Levi here, planning to make a rare return to my hometown of Seattle, and coincidentally just in time to make your mini-meet. After hosting several meets in the Bay Area and lurking on your meet threads, I've gotta hand it to @BIG POPPA for keeping these meets going, and looking forward to meeting you folks, as well as @Soundsgoodtome. I've heard there's still room, so here's my (tentative) list of gear I could bring including some very well regarded and lesser known equipment:

• Euforia tube amp from Feliks Audio with several good condition NOS tube pairings
• 'modest' Schiit Modi 2 multibit DAC, greatly enhanced by 3 USB components (Wyrd + Singxer SU-1 + iFi iPurifier 2)
• Focal Spirit Classic closed headphones
• Neu HX600 Japanese closed budget headphones
• HD-600 or 650
• Onkyo DP-X1A twin Sabre DAP
• TFZ Exclusive-1 IEMs ('stealth' budget IEMs find after trying 100's)

It would also be super interesting to try some of the newer 'cans such as Senn. HD-820 HD-660S, among others.

PS- I noticed it's 4 instead of 3 hours, right? That should give us needed time...

Here is the Feliks Audio Euforia with one of hundreds of possible tube combinations. Anyone else have a gear list to share, or will it be a surprise?

@BIG POPPA I don't see a lot of messages on here about this event. I want to go but I dont have facebook (or plan to). Is this the thread that will have the most info?

So sorry about that @thegabe . We have been coming here for a few years now. We jump on a ferry, get a bite to eat, head to Bottlehead at 1pm. I should be in Bainbridge fairly early checking out downtown Winslow.

Anyone need help with carpooling and or gear? This is the time to start talking about it.
please let me know.

I can help

@DecentLevi People should be posting their gear soon. Mine usually a surprise.... Tweaked as usual

 

[thegabe]

I'm driving in on Saturday just for this. I've never done the ferry before so if I could catch a ride or give a ride that would be cool. If I leave from here at 7a I'll be in Seattle around 11ish. Could be talked into leaving earlier if someone wants to meet up for the ferry ride.

 

[thegabe]

As far as gear goes, I was thinking of my Utopia, ifi Ican Pro, Metrum Onyx, schiit jotunheim, mytek brooklyn dac+, fostex th-900.

 

[Soundsgoodtome]

I will have a Campfire Cascade with the beryllium coated goodness gracious. Will also have that Massdrop Cavalli Tube Hybrid amp, which is a fantastic unit for the price. And a few other goodies.
