I might be a little late to the breakfast tomorrow (real life getting in the way of the internet again). 
 
Am I correct to assume that pretty much everyone will have LCD-XCs there so I won't need to bring my own. I will have some other stuff with me that is a little more portable.

I saw at least 3 LCD-XC's there, probably more IIRC.

Sorry guys had to cancel my flight to the show at the last minute so no breakfast for me. Everyone try to get a chance to hear Jack Woo's flagship amp on the Hilton 9th floor. Do not forget to stop at MA Recordings. Todd has some great recorded music that will give your headphones a real workout.
 
Mike please try to visit the Synergistic Research room on the main floor in the Hilton. I put a pair of their ECT devices on my Double Helix cables where they attach to the headphones. The sound was transformed. See if Peter Hansen (VP) will lend you a box  of 5 ECT's for you to review. There is more to listening than the Headphone Of The Week aproach.
 
Everyone have fun.

There must be 10,000 people here. All parking lots are full. Found a spot at a warehouse a couple blocks away!
  So the weekend is going to be a madhouse, Possibly selling out? Any word on discounts at JHAudio and A&K?
  They better not sell out, I just reserved a car at the Ontario Airport for Sunday...
  Yikes! Glad you posted that. I was going to pop by this aft, figuring it would be relatively quiet today...no time tomorrow so I guess it's get there at the opening bell on Sunday or stay home..

  Parking is kind of hard to find if you come later in the day, but then again it's like that every year.  Once you get inside, it's much better... much more manageable.

Okay cool, as long as you don't miss it!

Hehe, we've got two in our room alone.

  We're also running speakers in our room, and not lame Bluetooth speakers either.

  I was looking forward to seeing you.  We've been having dinner Todd and the guys from Woo past two nights.  Lemme tell you guys, T.H.E. Headphonium is pretty awesome, but if any of y'all can stick around after, a lot of the fun happens at night after the show.

I'll be there tomorrow so can't wait for this. 3 hour bus ride to be over.

 
Call me when you get here so we can hook up.
 

 
Day Two coming up, see you guys at breakfast!

Hey Guys,
Sorry I missed you at the show. I especially enjoyed JHAudio, A&K and Audeze. The XC sounded amazing with the Meridian front end. I tried to get into some of the home entertainment demos, but it just seems like you have to spend an insane amount of money to get the quality of sound that we get out of headphones at a fraction of the price. The Wilson Audio demo was amazing, but there were tons of people talking just outside the room and it was difficult to focus on the sound. Focal's big speakers are also quite good. 
Thanks for the heads up.

What a day, great breakfast with around 25-30 of us. That lead to me spending most of my day with warren mercer and Ethan. Spent another good portion at the Noble table and I will be buying from them soon. Listened to the amazing new LCD-2 with fazor and it sounds a little too good. Ended the night with a nice little dinner with around 20 headfiers/manufactures. And I forgot my zu audio shirt in mercers room.
