    Will be in class, but there in spirit, so if anything randomly crazy happens, that was me.

    Does anyone by-chance have an Atticus they could bring? I'm seriously considering buying one, but would love to spend some time with one first...

    Zach will be sending me an Auteur (and probably a balanced cable) for the meet.

    I'm in for sure. Sorry for the radio silence. Work is nuts. Let me know if I can bring anything. I'm going to read back through this thread to get caught up.

    You could bring your NAD M51 since you were interested in the schiit multibit offerings.

    It's gonna be a bit of a tight meet given the space, but we'll make it work xD. Probably just gonna have to take turns going in and out of the conference room. Show up early if you really want to do good comparisons.

    @Thepanther71 is a friend from college, who I invited to the site and the meet. He has been to some head-fi meets before though.

    I'm not sure if I'll bring the Studio this time. It's a little hard to take on the train. I'm thinking about bringing a smaller setup.

    Soon I'll have an office space I can host meets out of, so hopefully some of y'all can make it to Connecticut.

    Thanks for offering, but there's not enough space for a second table.

    @thegunner100: when you have time, would you add a setup list to the first post? I want to be sure there will be enough room on the table. Thanks!

    Given the tight space constraints, I will take one for the team and not bring any gear. Nobody ever listens to my shit anyways. ;)

    Looking forward to next week.

    In addition to the PMx2 and Code LEX, I was going to bring the RME ADI-2 Pro. I have been using a NuForce STA200 power amp and a resistor box that I made to lower the noise floor, but if space is a problem and there isn't much interest, I could leave it at home. If people are interested in hearing the amp though, does anyone have a Saga they would be willing to bring? I've been thinking about adding a dedicated preamp to my setup and would love to try it if anyone is willing to bring one.

    In terms of other headphones, I backed the kickstarter for the Taction Kannon headphones (the ones that physically rumble with bass) and received them near the end of December. They won't compete with the other headphones that will be there on technicalities and don't really need much in the way of amping, but they are certainly fun for music with lots of bass, gaming, and movies. I can bring them as well, perhaps something for people to try while not in the main setup room since it doesn't need an amp/DAC.
