I'm bringing a 1990s Sony Discman D-11, which sounds great, has a Line-Out as well as headphone socket and either battery or mains power if people want to try out various amps around the room using the same source.

THere was a time when CD players were the only quality source.
 
I have a Cyrus DVD7+ with upgraded QDAC boards in it, powered by the PSX-R PSU that I can bring if people want to use CD's as a source.  Yes it sounds great but I normally use my ALAC source to choice of DAC's as the CD collection is about 5 minutes away.
 
Let me know if anyone wants me to bring the CD set up.

I'll be bringing an iRiver H120 DAP which has a pretty decent quality line out and also optical out (both on 3.5mm jack). Not sure if I'll bring any other sources though. I brought a Meridian G08.2 CD player to the last meeting I went to, but sadly don't have access to that anymore.

Do not worry, i will have one for the meet!

Seeing all this high level gear makes me think someone should show headfiers how to get good sound from an amp/phones on a uni student budget!

 

[Dazhead]

Fair question. Guess it all depends on how you define a uni student budget???

Not according to the rules, as far as I can see, but I entered anyway as it's worth a shot.  They're a nice looking set of phones.

The D11 isn't anything special in the grand scheme of things, but I'll bring it for anyone to have a play with if they want; when it's on eBay you can typically pick it up for a fiver or less, which may appeal to some. 
 
Further to my earlier post, I liked what I heard on the Teac UD-H01 at RS and so it will be coming to the meet with me as well as my Little Dot Mk III.
 
3 posts to go guys!!! Good luck to everyone

Definitely excited to hear the Stax. I have a strong feeling after the meet I'll be picking up some Hifiman headphones .  Saving the pennies to have enough around to get something after cause I know I'll be itching!!
 
Well, here's 999 for the people out there waiting.  I'm fine not winning this and I think we might otherwise be waiting for a long time and I want to keep the thread flowing!
 
Cheers again to Andy for making even the run up to the event so much fun!

Way to build the tension....

I should be bringing my GF's laptop so I can hook up my E-DAC cause my only other source is a S9 which is nearing it's retirement

Is anyone staying at the Bar Hill Travelodge on Friday/Saturday night?

 

[julianbell92]

Congrats Dazhead!

 

[Dazhead]

Thanks. Was planning to put something highly amusing and wItty (Oscar Wilde style) but the missis was nagging me for the iPad so just put in what I thought was 999 and gave up. Must have only got it by a second or two.

alvin sawdust,
 
Not yet as the amp is still in transit. Rest assured that a sonic update will follow soonest.
 
Cheers,
 
Andy.
