If you book a room?!?

No iffy wiffy do it soon Smithy, book the Travelodge and let's organise a post meet dinner.

Cheers,

Andy.


If I book a room it'll likely be for the Saturday night as that's when the post meet social is.

Huh,
Please explain the £5000 prize thingy as I know nothing about it!
Cheers,
Andy.

I figured that since this is the internet I would excercise my right to exaggerate wildly.

Point is, you've been exceptionally generous and I think that's bloody impressive on top of all the organisation you've been doing.

Does anyone know if there are any UK head-fiers with Sennheiser HE90/HEV90s that might like to come along to the meet?

Ha ha. It's somewhat dependent on funds; I'm on me hols the week before the meet, so the coffers are under strain - to the point of micro management in fact!
 
Even if I don't book somewhere to stay I'll stick around for the evening social as I wouldn't want to miss that.

I'm debating what to do but supposing I was to bring my Headphones + Amp + Source to this event, I'm guessing I'd also have to bring some of my CD's ?

 
Yeah, you'll need to bring some music along if you want to give an effective demo of your gear

Mattyhew,
 
Post meet us hoary oldies will be supping our warm real ale and bemoaning the demise of MONO recordings - STEREO is just so wrong and sounds awful.

jr41,
 
I'll shout you a beverage or two at the meal so don't worry about drinks. Have you considered camping as a low cost alternative to the Travelodge?
 
Cheers,
 
Andy.

JoetheArachnid,
 
Thank you kindly! 
 
It's actually been fun contacting audio companies and seeing who agrees to send gear to demo at the meet. Plus it'll be nice to raise a few quid for charity.
 
Cheers,
 
Andy.

I don't mind a bit of camping but I'm not sure my wooden cupped Grado's will fair well if it's damp! That's a kind offer, thanks; I just need to exercise a little frugality (something no head-fi'er gets enough practice in!) and hotels, etc. shouldn't be a problem.

A coat or two of Cuprinol or Ronseal and your woodies will withstand the worst vestiges of the British weather! 
 
Cheers,
 
Andy.
