    @E_Schaaf left his (amazing sounding) modified 4-screw HE6 with me to bring to the meet. He forgot the cables though. Does anyone have old school HiFiMan (sms?) connector cables they could bring, either terminated with 1/4" or XLR. If not, he'll have to come by again tomorrow.

    Just for the sake of clarity - the HE6 does have left and right backwards. My mods are asymmetrical and I accidentally applied them backwards to one side, so I went ahead and did it backwards on the other side too.

    Just flip L and R when you put them on (the pads are facing the way they should relative to the mods). If curious you can also flip the pads and listen backwards - might change the staging a bit. Feel free to swap whatever pads too.

    @DEATHxMACHINE's pair does not have this mismatch. Thanks for covering on the cable @elwappo99

    Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow. I've got a lot of gear and I don't want to pack all of it, so I'm hoping people can pick out stuff they'd like to hear or stuff that's a bit out of the ordinary.

    Headphones:
    Hifiman He-6
    Hifiman He-5se
    Focal Elex
    Audeze Mobius
    Sennheiser HD800
    Sony SA5000
    Koss ESP-950
    Stax L700
    Stax SR007mkii
    Sony WH1000XM3

    Amps:
    Liquid Platinum (monoprice)
    THX 789
    Stax 353x
    Cavalli Liquid Lightning

    Also I'd prefer not to pack up my DAC. Can we run a few amps off someone's DAC?

    You provide an amp or two; I got at least 1 (Pro iDSD will probably not warm up in time) DAC. You can scratch Liquid Platinum off; I'm bringing one.

    Bring sodas, beer, and water. I've got the Bourbon covered.

    Will slow roast a tritip. No guarantees, only been able to age it two days. I really needs two weeks.

    Well folks, I can't make it. Have too much chaos with the new kitchen and bathroom going in. Have fun to all who attend!

    Wish I could have been there. I had to be back down to Laguna Hills by... 30 minutes ago. How was the DNA?
