I am going to try to make both. I have a mobile roon server and cellular hotspot I will bring for the group to use and I was thinking of bringing Beyer T5P's and Utopia's, I could also bring my gen 1 auralic stack (altair/vega/taurus). I also have an aries and lynx I could bring if anyone is interested. I was going to bring my chord h2/a&k kann as well. I have a pair of tia fourte's i could bring if folks have extra tips.

  • EC S7
  • ECP DSHA-1
  • Massdrop Sennheiser HD58x (per request)
  • Sennheiser HD580 (per request)
  • Sennheiser HD800S (modified)
As mentioned, there will be Cavalli Liquid Gold (Ken's) and Massdrop Monolith Liquid Platinum (mine). But my plans at this time are just to box up the Platinum for sale. It, to my ears, is not the best setup for HD800 - the two amplifiers I am bringing are a better match for that headphone.

Last, I will be most likely getting rid of HE4XX and Fostex T50RP. These are planar headphones, which I simply have no need for. I can bring these, if there is any interest. If I like the sound of my LFF Code-X (a modified HE-5) on the two amplifiers I am bringing, I may also bring this to the event.

Should we make a second event thread for the "pre-meet"? Sounds like it's going to be a bit bustling as well, and it could help to keep everything straight as far as who's bringing what and when.

Minor change - most people who have heard them really do not notice any difference, particularly at meets. I believe there will be stock HD800S (one or two).

The only headphone I like stock is HD580 (with an HD650 cable).

I had the HD800s, I thought it was great except for the upper mids could use a little more body. thats why I decided to keep my HD820 over it.
