Wow, if I go this will be my first meet-up so I'm excited.

I'm gonna be taking summer school so I'm not sure if I'll be able to go but if I do It'll be a last second decision.

MY CONCLUSION REGARDING THE WOO GES AMP WAS WRONG. Please read my post #103 at the following thread: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showth...=205708&page=5

Needless to say, I'll bring the Woo Audio GES amp ( as well as the McAlister amp) to the meet.

I DELETED THE PREVIOUS POST.

Mike, sorry to hear that you're disappointed. I guess the search goes on.

Gentleman, this meet is one month away, and this thread is seriously lacking in requisite support. Where, for example, are the posts detailing the character deficiencies of attendees? What about the gear lists that might allow one to overlook said deficiencies? How are first-time meet attendees to receive warnings or otherwise construct a proper preparatory mental attitude akin to a barrier shield?

That said, I will actually be coming in on Thurs. so that I may visit childhood neighbors I haven't seen in 20+ years. I should be available to do an airport run or two for folks coming in during the day on Friday.

I guess I will start

The reason is explained in my evaluation of the performance of this Woo Audio amp, in comparison with that of my McAlister amp, using my HE90. The review is shown as my post #66, at the following thread: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/showth...=1#post2928361

Mike, you're nuts!

Sorry, Vicki made me do it.

That's good, Mike. You managed to cover Mikeg's nutso personality and his extraordinary gear with minimalist efficiency. I'm impressed.

Will you have your Woo5 by then? Will you still have the FirstWatt since I'm pretty sure John may no longer have his Sig 30 and F1 by meet time? Speaking of nuts, how many amps have you gone through since the last meet?

It's all about being concise and to the point. Who said I didn't learn anything in law school.

It's possible I will have the amp by then. That would be if it arrives by the earliest date for delivery. I will email him to see if he can try to get in time for the meet. I have a feeling that he is conservative in his delivery times so as not to disappoint.

My F1 should be gone by then as well.

Actually, I believe I had the ZD at the last two meets. Others have come and gone however.

I might take you up on that as I am arriving on Friday.

Here's the gear I plan to bring:

Shure E500 with a maxed out PIMETA
KGSS (if I ever get the damn thing done)
Woodied Lambda Pro
Maybe my Wadia....we'll see.

I may have to ship some of this stuff...mainly the Wadia and the KGSS. If it looks like it's going to be too much then I'll go with the KGSS.

Oh yeah, y'all are nuts.

*end communication*

That maybe true, but Mikeg is a little nuttier than the rest of us.

I mean the guy goes to California, drinks in every beer bar he can find, ends up hitchhiking back to town from the beach, gets a ride in the back of a pick up truck... Oh... wait... that was ag1, jp nums and me. Woops. Sorry Mike.

I'm looking forward to it. I expect my visit will somehow involve beer, headphones and a humorous misadventure at a 'gator farm (pickup optional).

Oh wait, that would be more along the Miami lines I guess...closer to the Everglades. Well some sort of humorous misadventure.

It wouldn't be a Florida meet without a humorous misadventure involving beer and.....

I do believe NightWoundsTime once suggested a meet in the Everglades. If I remember correctly, he even volunteered to provide transportation in his liquor truck after enlisting the services of electrostatic amp builders to create a protective perimeter shield at the camp site to keep the gators or was it man-eating mosquitos (?) away.

I'll pick you up from the airport (pm details closer to date), but I'm afraid you'll have to wait for the guys to arrive to satisfy your expectations for humor and misadventure. Marked by unwavering sanity and an unnatural preference for sobriety, I'm downright boring.

One out of three isn't bad for a mad woman from the east coast, and that's how many of the above assertions are fact.

 

[tyrion]

I just wanted to let Our Lady of Sanity, Sobriety and Boredom that jp and I will be in NYC Friday and Saturday of next week so you will need to be on call in case of emergency.

Facts? What are facts?

oooh...as close to saintly as I'll ever get...though I prefer Lady of Sanity, Purity, and Light (unused appellations from a previous life).

I have not yet recovered from your California communications. Jp nums is coming over after work today to retrieve his F1. I shall program a few hotline numbers in his phone for you both.

Oh, it makes me laugh to think of the messages left while that merry little band wandered the streets of San Francisco without me. Although they knew that I was already at the meet in San Jose, they were repeatedly calling my OFFICE and leaving messages and asking why I wouldn't pick up. I have them saved, of course, for future reference and/or protection.

I will be arriving in NYC around 8:30 p.m. Friday boys, so try not to be incoherent too early. Wait until I get there at least!
