Western NC SchiitMeet - Announcement
Friends, I have confirmed a venue and date for the first ever SchiitMeet in the Old North State.
There are still a lot of details that I will need to work out with Denise at Schiit Audio in the coming weeks, but date and location are solid.
Schiit Audio will be our sponsor, and therefore there is no cost to attend, and hors d'ouevres and non-alcoholic drinks will be provided, along with a cash bar right there in the room. But due to room and budget limitations, I will need to cap the headcount at around 50.
Jason Stoddard will be joining us via Zoom to answer YOUR questions, so please have those ready as well.
Tom (@Paladin79) has also promised to provide some items to be given away at the event, and we deeply appreciate his support. See photo below, these include his mini-radial speakers, a handmade headphone stand, and some handmade cables as well. Sorry, but you must be present to win.
Alleghany County is located at the center of the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the site where its construction began. The ‘New’ River (actually one of the oldest rivers in the world) is just north of Sparta, and is also rare in our hemisphere since it flows North.
If you are too far way to daytrip the event, or if you want to spend the weekend up here and gain some partner points, there are plenty of AirBnB type offerings in the area, some search terms would be Sparta, New River, Roaring Gap, or Glade Valley. Also, you can check out the Alleghany Inn in Sparta (alleghany-inn-sparta.hotelsone.com), rates there are about $90/night.
If you plan on attending, please reply here with the gear you plan on bringing. You are NOT required to bring anything. If you do bring some gear, not a bad idea to pack a power strip as well. This is the event to go to if you are new to the hobby and want to see what would be right for you.
Questions? Feel free to PM me. Also, please vote above to allow me to track headcount. Thx!
