Aura

I'm up. Mike and I are meeting down near the front entrance (by the starbucks) to get coffee and something light to eat. We will be around early. So yeah stop by if bored.

VANJAM!!!

Kinda early for pics.

Ok we got Ryan, Doug, Marc, Steve, Birgir, Jim, Jeff, and myself at Giordano's. Logical first meal for Chicago is deep dish, so that's what we got going.

Sounds like we will have a decently-sized group for lunch here within an hour. Assemble the army.

Decided to stay at the girlfriend's last night; just arrived this morning, am sitting in Jim's room at the moment.

Will do Ed. I'm staying in Jim's room tomorrow night so we can check out the situation no problem.

Sounds good alex. Anyone who wants to chill send me a pm. So far I know that Jim, Steve, and I will for sure be there. How much time the organizers will actually have to chill remains to be seen though lol.

Leaving directly from work tomorrow, should be at Hyatt by 5. Mentally I don't feel ready for this at all but I guess I'll just throw myself into the fray and we'll see if I can make it to the other side. See most of you soon.

really this is what i've been doing the last 4 or 5 days, but i somehow have a new girlfriend. probably won't be around as much for a bit and suspect to become a great deal poorer than I already am. worth it though.

happy birfday

yuck. after april, fuck that.

Jin, Vicki, Shelly, and Scott - thanks very much, really appreciate it . though i've told him congrats about 10 times already, here's one more for Colin. Chris - it's good shit eh?

fully finished with junior year. now a senior. yay.

have a great day ari

just to reaffirm what vicki already said, we aren't here because of how the site looks (though i think it's fair to say VBulletin >>>>>>>> Huddler). we are here for content and community, both of which HF has lacked considerably for some time. make sure you have the right intentions to being with, otherwise there is little point in wasting our time or yours by trying to adapt over here.

wtf

good strat. jim

for what it's worth (and for the sake of clarity) the TTVJ 307A is still one of the top 3 best amps I've ever heard - imo of course. did i like the looks of it? not that much. but once i heard it that really didn't matter because it sounded fucking amazing, even with GS1K which is a rather maligned headphone in general. the only reason i judged the looks of this new offering is simply because i have no other standard by which i can judge it at the moment. and it's not thaat bad. just sort of "meh" for something that costs 10 grand. always excited for todd though, as far as vendors go i have considerable respect for him and hope the amp does as well as possible upon release. and yeah x2 with ryan @ CJ, the best i can hope for is some time with JH audio but besides that, not much time to spare.

2 more finals done. less than 24 hours and i'll be a senior.

aesthetically i'm not amazed; the uncovered trafo's don't really fit with the rest of the look. the front faceplates are pretty good though and black is always a winner. at least we've got one new big toy for CJ .

Regardless.

Happy 24th Matt .

Vicki gave me a lead on finding a well-priced retailer for 840's; I e-mailed Northern Sound & Light (located in Pitt) and this morning received a quote for $118.08 on a new pair of Shure's. I don't believe this includes shipping but even so, it will most likely fall under $125 total. I would still e-mail them yourselves just to confirm the pricing - [email protected]. Thought I would share this since people are interested. I know I am .

oh i forgot to add, if shipping is necessary for you out-of-towners hit me up with a pm and the crew will figure things out for you. thx.
