Hello everyone!

I wanted to know what your experiences were with airline travel with your portable set-up with an amp. I ask because I will be going to NYC in a few days for the US Open. I was thinking of bringing my MD and my TA, along with my Beyer 250-80 for some isolation.

Do I leave my portable gear in the Caselogic bag and in my backpack or should I just let my Caselogic bag go through the detector by itself?

My fear is that the TA would be confiscated by security.

Please advise, thanks.

Regards - reynman

Well, I haven't had a problem with my MD and JMT mint tin amp sitting in compartments in my carry-on bag. I just let them go through the x-ray scanner. In fact, I forgot that I left a pair of nail clippers in my bag once and they made me turn those over without even asking about the amp.

It's pretty random what they decide to look at, but I recently got through with a META42 without any problem.

I have never had any problems. Once in a while they will have you demonstrate that it works. Just let it go through the x-ray and you should not have any problems.

Thanks for all your replies. I will keep the Caselogic bag and the Beyers in the backpack.
