WOW ... lots of great gear ... add to the list, as a source, my Keces 151DAC/Laptop/Lossless rig.

 

[Doorknob]

Source for Cowon A2, Audiotechnica A-900 cans, and an external DAC/Amp which would be an HDAM modded Zero.

Just going to hope I don't get lost which way to go.

Ray was indicating to me that he is packing light on this trip, so expect portable offerings... which is fine by me as I'm in the market for just that.

Only about a week until the LAX Can Meet on Saturday, October 18, 2008. Interested in attending the event and yet to acquire advance admission? Here’s a very important cutoff date to remember, Thursday, October 16, 2008 is the last day to purchase advance admission at the special rate –- e-tickets: $15 per person; and MOT e-table fee: $89 per vendor. After this date, admission can only be acquired at the event at a small premium -- tickets: $20 per person; and MOT table fee: $100 per vendor. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me via PM.

 

[909]

some cool news!

EMI/Capital is likely to offer door prizes to a few random and lucky e-ticket-holders.

 

[TreAdidas]

Ok super stoked!

Now if only my darn SP amp gets back to me in time, I can add an MPX3/Rotel RCD-1070 CPD, and another pair of HD650's to the list.... Mikhail told me it will ship Monday so we'll see. Ummm did I just jinks myself?


And.... just to make this a well rounded post

I live right next to Ballast Point Brewery (gotta say that was definitely a selling point when moving into my current digs) and Pizza Port is on the way on up. I could most definitely arrange a stop there for uhhhh breakfast. So send me yo' order mang!

Oh and might i recommend Hop 15. That stuff if hopped to heaven and back. Sooo off the hook!!!

I wish I could attend the meet, but I have a meeting to take care on Saturday and my buddy with some pretty sweet headphone gear is going to be out of town too. I guess I'll just for the next meet. It was nice meeting edwood and iron_dreamer at the meet out in the Valley that 909 set up about two years ago. When will the next meet be?

I hope you guys take some pictures or videos to post up online. Have a good one.

 

[Jbucla2005]

I am interested in coming... my updated list of what I'm bringing: I want to bring my headphone rig, MG Head mk3 /w tung sol reissue 12ax7 and russian 6n14n's, source is a mhdt labs renaissance II with a 6N3P-E, using some modified headphile blacksilver IC's. Headphones are defoamed HD650's with homemade cable (twisted SPC.) I'll bring my ipod with some music on it too.

Please let me know if anyone is coming from my area (west LA) because I would like to carpool. I can drive my car if needed too.

Sorry you can't make it munkeeboi...

A valley meet-up would be great. How many of us reside in the valley? Maybe a mini-meet is in order? (sorry to go off topic)

 

[1UP]

Hey guys, I've landed! Well, been in the US for over a week now. Am kicking my heels waiting for my SSN, so...don't suppose anyone's driving from Vegas??

 

[909]

Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow is the last day to purchase e-tickets for the upcoming So Cal meet at the LAX Hilton. Purchasing tickets before October 16, 2008 at 11:59 PM locks in the $15 per person admission and the EMI/Capital door prizes. Thereafter, admission tickets will be available at the venue for $20 per person.

There are two advance payment options:

pm me your email address and I will send an eticket for you to purchase; or

send payment to my PayPal account - address provided via pm.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me...

 

[G.Kennedy]

I am OUT!!!!!!

Unfortunately .... I was just put on a Wednesday through Sunday schedule at work.

I was really looking forward to this, as I have never been to one before.

So .... I was bringing my Bottlehead S.E.X., Keces DAC and Senn 600's ... prolly safe to take them off the Gear List ... sorry.

Consider my pre ticket as a donation to a good cause ... Have a great time!!!!
