First post-meet purchase made...Valhalla 2!
It is.
Lucky it sounds good.
that Valhalla 2 sounded so good it got me thinking, what would Lyr + AKG sound like? Schiit support told me they demo the lyr with AKGs often.I only wish we had more time to swap gear with Amps to see what my phones sounded like through some of the end game set-ups.First post-meet purchase made...Valhalla 2!
Do these "meets" ever happen on the west side of the state?
Funny you should ask... zabzaf (the founder of the Michigan
meets) and I were talking about that at this Ann Arbor meet, thinking that if a group of folks organized one further west, it would be great.
cel4145 mentioned the idea of holding one at Grand Valley State College (we would have to charge admission, as one must rent their classrooms, but their rooms have tables and outlets everywhere).
zabzaf wants to have one in about 6 months, so now is the time to start thinking.

You will not be disappointed in the least! I think I sold 2 or 3 Valhalla 2's and a few surface's while I was at the meet. Can't wait to hear your impressions after you spend some time with the V2 and your 800's.

Hey, which Surface were you using? I'm looking at MacBooks but I think the Surface is a little more affordable.
Krikor's Bottlehead Crack w/speedball upgrade and HD650's paired with the Yggdrasil is a phenomenal pairing. This is the second time I've heard the crack/hd650 combo at a meet and both times were engaging experiences. In this case this was probably my standout favorite at the meet. Krikor was also kind enough to lend his macbook as a source for the Yggdrasil. Thanks again for that Craig! His AKG7XX cans were also fun to listen with through the Ragnarok.
Lastly, I left before the showdown between Krikor's Bottlehead and TimKWhite's Valhalla 2 running through the Yggdrasil finished. Do you both have the same conclusions as before?
