June 23, 200917 yr Author hey mike, do the hard sell on raffy for the blue hawaii while he's there Of course. Tell justin to finish it and sound it down to me and raffy can hear for himself how good it is.
June 23, 200917 yr Of course. Tell justin to finish it and sound it down to me and raffy can hear for himself how good it is. Ha, I'd honestly love to hear Dan's KGBH. I'm currently seriously considering a BHSE too, I was swept away by it when I heard it in CJ. Seriously the best piece of gear I've heard in my short audiophile life. Maybe a KGBH vs. BHSE shootout courtesy of Dan and Vicki?
June 28, 200917 yr I'll be there. I went to my new local brewery on Friday night and met some fine folks who had made the trip from down south for some very limited release bottles. I offered to bring them some growlers on the trip down there, and they offered in return to set up a tasting of various rare bottles they have on hand. They said that they could probably do it at Brother Tuckers one of the nights. Don't know how many would be interested this time around, but the option is out there.

Matt and Raffy, you guys are staying at my place, correct? Can anyone think of anyone else local I should invite that would not see this thread on HC? I don't want to post on HF. We have 9 so far, I figure, we can go another 5 or so and still be comfortable. Edited June 28, 200917 yr by tyrion

I don't want to post on HF. We have 9 so far, I figure, we can go another 5 or so and still be comfortable. If you don't mind Mike, I'd like to stay over. I'm also in for going to Brother Tuckers, I've never been. Does anyone here know if Vicki got her BHSE already?
June 28, 200917 yr Author If you don't mind Mike, I'd like to stay over. I'm also in for going to Brother Tuckers, I've never been. Does anyone here know if Vicki got her BHSE already? Plenty of room. Nope, Vicki does not have it yet. Hopefully, in time for the meet.
June 28, 200917 yr I hope the BHSE makes it. That by itself is worth coming down for. Of course, it's always a pleasure seeing everyone and hanging out
June 29, 200916 yr Been doing some jedi mind tricking on Becky, and it worked. She changed a scheduled trip from weekend of 7/10-12 to 7/17-19, so I'm in. Mike - I can sleep in my car or on the beach if house is full.
June 29, 200916 yr raffy, I'm also hoping. It's supposedly finished except for the front panel on the power supply, which had to go back to the machinist. Something about needing another screw. I dunno. Justin said it would delay things about a week, which means I should have it next week if we're working with actual weeks. If were talking about Justin weeks, I'm not sure what it means. I've personally been okay with delays up to now, but now it's time. I should definitely have it by mid-July, and if not, I'm going to be pretty cranky.

Gene, you have a room to yourself and if you miss having Al with you, I'm sure Achilles (see avatar) will keep you warm at night. Damn, I have a shit load of beer and whiskey but I think I need to get some more. Gene Me Alex Carl CJ Dom Vicki (Evening) Frank raffy Matt
June 29, 200916 yr Now it's officially a meet. Jp, you might as well book your flight. Resistance is futile ... Gene, you have a room to yourself and if you miss having Al with you, I'm sure Achilles (see avatar) will keep you warm at night. As long as Achilles can spoon, snore, and snuggle, we'll be just fine. Damn, I have a shit load of beer and whiskey but I think I need to get some more. Don't forget those growlers The Younger is bringing over, and I've got a jug of Lagavulin I'll bring.
June 29, 200916 yr Author Gene, no need to bring the Lagavulin. I have an unopened bottle plus another 10 or more bottles of various Scotch, Bourbon and Rye.
June 29, 200916 yr Should we start listing what gear we are bringing, so as to avoid duplicates? Also, I'd appreciate it if anyone with ANY amp that can drive an O2 takes it, since I want to hear options. On same topic, don't know if any of you can DIY, and I'd appreciate help in rewiring a STAX 007ta amp to US voltage (I will pay for services of course).
June 29, 200916 yr Author Alex, good idea. Nugget Audio Beta 22 Luxman P-1 (unless sold by then) HF2 Galibier Serac tt Emotiva Cdp System-Audio Ranger speakers flecom has diy skills. It's just a matter whether he chooses to use them at the meet.
June 29, 200916 yr Headphones: HD800 O2 Mk1 Grado HP1000 (polarity switches) ESW10JPN Amp: Stax SR007ta (japan voltage =( unfortunately) Luxman P1 ONLY if Tyrion's is sold by then Other items that will already be at Mike's place before meet: Aero Dac Phonomena II If there is anything else anyone wants to hear that I own, check my profile and let me know.
June 29, 200916 yr I'll bring the Woo WA6 SE and my Accuphase A-20 power amp. Probably just computer for source (with duet for fun), and the K1000s, Stax Lambda pro, HD 650, SA5000, HF2, and ATH ESW10. Alex - what voltage is your Stax 007Ta at now? (100 or 220) If 100V, I have a 115 x 100 Volt converter that I can bring over for you. It is high power capacity, and wouldn't break a sweat supplying the 7T.
June 29, 200916 yr I'm taking the following: HF-2 O2 Mk2 Stax SRM-1 Mk2 Pico DAC/Laptop Broken Extreme - maybe flecom can check it out?
