Just an update, still planning on coming as long as my time off is approved.  Changes to my gear though.  I no longer have the K702 65th, or the Audio Technica A900X or AD2000X.
 
However, as it stands now I still have HD800, my SA-31 amp, Resonessence Concero, and will soon be adding a PS Audio Nuwave DAC, using my Concero as a USB converter.  Looking forward to comparing the Nuwave with the Gungnir.

I've heard a lot of good things about the concero and nuwave, I hope you manage to get some time off

 

[JWahl]

There shouldn't be any reason not to, I've got almost 30 days available and I'm only taking 14 days.  I was going to head up Friday night, but I think I might just leave Saturday morning and save the cost of an extra night in the hotel.  It's only about 4 hour drive up there.

I would love to attend so put me down as tentative. Just getting into this hobby so my collection is rather humble at the moment. I would be bringing my AKG K240, BD DT770 80 ohm, & ATH-A900X with Fiio E17 amp/dac. Excited!

Cool! Welcome. Which version of the k240s do you have (studio, monitor, etc.)?

Have a NOS/NIB set of Stax Gamma headphones/amp junction box--had these for 20+ years and never hooked them up. No foolin'.
     Can bring a nice tube amp to drive these, if anyone is interested. Could be talked into selling said phones. Anyone bringing a dedicated electrostatic HA?
     I think that's it for now. Really looking forward to this meet. Hey Rastadolphin, do you have a PayPal account, or do you just want cash to help pay our way?
 
Cheers to All!

I am bringing my Lambdas and my Gammas, but the only thing I have to drive them is my SRD-6/sb energizer box powered by my NAD 3155. I have yet to be able to afford a dedicated electrostatic amp. And it is sinful to have had your Gammas that long and to have never hooked them up. They may not be the greatest phones in the world, but they are still surprisingly good.

You are right about that, hekoman. Not certain why I haven't listened to them. Mostly, I was involved in a new career and family--and of course my main audio system. I think I will pull the Gammas out and give them a try. I'm guessing that one might need a dedicated electrostatic amp to really make them shine. As it stands, I have decided to invest in another technological pathway. No money in the budget for a dedicated ES amp so I'll probably sell them. Still.........

Hey. So yeah... I have a paypal account if people would prefer to use that for room donations. If you want to do that, send me a private message and I'll send you my info. I'll give you a number and start tallying the running total of donations on the original post of this thread in a numbered list of donations. That way we'll know where we're at and I won't get more donations than I need.
 
Does that sound okay?

I wouldn't object to rolling excess into a pizza budget.

Whatever it takes to make things easier for the organizer(s).

Thinking about making the drive up from Upstate South Carolina.  Any one else going from the Upstate?  I could bring my LCD3 and Apex Peak and Volcano.   Also have a Bifrost, Butte and HP-A3.

 

[jpittsc]

I saw some discussion about changing the date.  Is this still on for April 20?

 

[dailydoseofdaly]

Yeah it's still the 20th. I hope you can make it would love to hear the 3s on that apex gear.
