So we haven't settled on a place yet. I was gonna be lazy & say Roppongi Hills Starbucks where it's big & convenient for mid-sized gatherings (I hear Oharaku is somewhat small).

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

How about meeting up at e-earphone and then rolling to Doutor coffee shop around the corner or Timelord ??

The problem with AKB is that it's always crowded & noisy. Getting a table for 2 is hard enough, let alone 5. Timelord closes on Sundays.


It's trying to find a reasonably large place that can accomodate us is the issue. That's why I'm suggesting Starbucks in Roppongi Hills. If anyone knows a place that's large and not so busy, that'll be great too. Maybe even that cafe in B1 from the Sun Plaza in Nakano (where we go to for lunch during the mini Fujiya shows), is also a possiblity. They don't seem crowded and looks like the kind of place where we can stay for hours without being kicked out.

Happy with the nakano cafe. Fairly quiet, empty and lots of seating time.

Nakano cafe is also ok for me. It's very spacious and only a few people last time. So what time should we meet?

 

[AnakChan]

Are you guys ok meeting late morning, maybe like the 11 or 11:30 timeframe? We can eat something, share our treasures (and I mean our audio gear), and if we get bored after awhile, head to Fujiya and see what we can rummage through.

Morning is good for me!

 

[mtthefirst]

Ok for me too.

 

[Bootsy1]

I'll bring the whole family of VentureCraft. Too bad that my new Forza hybrid lightning cable won't arrive until next week.
 
Sean, Do you want me to try this tube? It's Brimar 1T4.

 

[AnakChan]

I'll bring the Verza...want to see how different it is from the Go-DAP X (which I've returned back to VC). I'll bring my TUR-06 for sure so sure I can try those tubes. They're compatible I assume? Don't wanna blow up my TUR-06 ?

Yes. Those are standard 1T4. TUR-06 can use either 1T4 or 1U4.

Anything for sale?
