That does suck but you never know what may happen between now and then.

Maybe you should convince your client to settle?

Cool Mike, this is officially going to be a party now. Moar beer for everyone!

It doesn't look like I'll be there. Due to the Jewish holidays, our family program was rescheduled for Oct 13-15, and the likelihood of me being allowed to take Friday day off and find someone to cover my groups is pretty much an impossibility.

Maybe you could fly in late Friday and still be there for Saturday and Sunday? I wont be getting in till friday PM myself.

V and Al come in late Friday and leave late Sunday, its a great show. The headphone part is great but getting to hear all the SOTA speaker rigs makes it a show not to be missed.

For anyone attending, I would appreciate a copy of the program listing all the attendees. Thank you!

You mean one of the show guide booklets, Greg? Not sure I understand, you won't be coming this year? Could definitely pick up an extra to send to you if that's what you mean.

i forgot all about this meet and i guess i wasn't contacted because i wasn't a vendor last year. too late?

I decided not to unpack my main headphone rig after the Colorado meet, so I'm still mostly all packed up and ready to bring my gear to RMAF. Even without the PWD, ZDT and WES I'm enjoying all my music. I could sell all that stuff and buy one of my kids a year of college at CSU instead. If I narrowed my preferences down to only one flagship headphone I could almost get a second year squeezed in. Hmmm...

Sure would love to see you there. Hope it all works out.

Yep, the show guide booklet, unfortunately I have way too many things going on here with no room for one more fun distraction. Thanks!

I'd still like to find a way to make it. What's your schedule looking like Steve?

Dang I was gonna make you like the Merlins this year!

I hope one of the exhibitors is bringing the Merlins. Merlin is not in the list of attendees. I want to hear zMerlin, Salk and Amphion. I think Saturday will be all day auditioning speakers and some amps since I'm set source wise. I'm probably set all the way around but I am tempted by speakers at the moment, despite liking my Amphions

... since I'm set source wise.

Less true words were never spoken.

There really is no place else for me to go digitallly. Now analog, I guess you are right.

burmester?

burmester?

Not even close.

al, amarra stuff > burmester?

i dont know anything about burmester other than their gear looks super cool.

Expensive case and marketing or superior sound? Hmm, hard to figure which one to prefer...

Justin I emailed you 7/6 from my yahoo account, I'll sent another email to you today. I'd love to see you there.

All I can say is I felt the Metric Halo ULN- 8 was a step up from the Berkeley Alpha DAC, which I am not that impressed with sonically. While $4000 for the LIO- 8 and $6000 for the ULN- 8 is not chicken feed the way Mike and I and to a lesser degree Al use the unit as a DAC, Phono pre and system pre amp is goes from ouch to very reasonable.

The thing that sucks is I am now considering buying a pair of stereo mics for local recordings.

Oh and as for RMAF, this year is going to be jam packed as Marjorie the event organizer sold all vendor rooms out. We are also doing a raffle to draw attendees into the room. Now I just need to get going on table space and local rigs
