I will be able to make it.
Equipment, space permitting:

Headphones:
Stax SR-007
Audio-Technica ATH-W2002
Audio-Technica ATH-ES5
Shure E5 + foamies (enough foamies for everyone I think)
Sennheiser HD25-1
Sony MDR-V700DJ
Sony MDR-XD200

Amps:
A.N.T. Audio Emerald Prototype
Stax SRM-007t
The neatest META I've been able to put together (and that's not modesty. It's even complete with burn marks in the plastic fascia where I rested the soldering iron on). It's 9V operation but it will power HD650, DT880, etc without distortion.

Source:
PC: 1.1Ghz Centrino laptop w/Slimserver, iTunes, Sonicstage, iRiver Plus and Mediasource installed plus sample tunes, fitted with Audiotrak Optoplay.
Home: Slim Devices Squeezebox
Portable: iRiver H10
Nostalgic: Sony D-555

I'll also bring a small and effective audio switch I found at Maplin. The other switch is a bit big.
Assorted digital * analog cables

You have no idea how strong is my commitment, Kirk. I took the Apogee... it was an American one: American plug and not-so-so international power suply (I mean, it said in big letters "INPUT: 100V - 220V", but in small letters at the bottom it said only "INPUT: 100V").

I didn't want to damage the miniDAC so I was looking for a transformer 100V-220V the whole morning (with traffic jams, walking while raining...). Finally I got one. It didn't work. The power supply was damaged (?). The led was always off.

Again same history (well, this time I got an umbrella first) in my "Quest" for a compatible AC/DC adaptor for the miniDAC (its not really a standard one, so it's not easy to find it). After looking in 3 different shops I did find one! I was praying in my way back that the power supply was the faulty one, and not the unit.

I just came home 10 minutes ago. It is working! And it sounds good!

Ah, by the way, as the HD595 was at the end a 50 Ohms one, I'll bring it too (but it is a brand new, without burning-in) Plus the SR-225 that I bought 2 days ago (under intensive burning-in since then). I'll bring 2 pairs of Bowls and 2 pairs of Flats that came on time too.

I think I won't bring with me the laptop IBM Thinkpad as it seems like there are enought computers. I'll bring my iBook in order to feed the Apogee though. I hope I can borrow some HD650 for a while (mine is not coming on time) in order to try them with my XLR Zu cable with the Apogee and the Benchmark.

Glad you can make it, bangraman

Don't worry about a monitor I have 3 of them.

Do we still need power cables? I can go to my lab in 5 minutes and I can take 50 if needed.

It's the sync client for the H10.


A wonderful piece of iRiver software which is nearly as good as the much-lauded Sony Sonicstage.
