    Some of the Head-fi Texas people are trying to get a meet started again, so I've offered to host as I have the last two. SBAFs are invited of course. So far the plan is late January or early to mid February, and so far at Norris Conference center on Anderson where the mall used to be.

    Let me know if you want to come.

    Here's a link to the HF interest thread: http://www.head-fi.org/t/775588/austin-meet-interest-check

    I'm looking forward to as well. It will be good to make some real audio friends, not like those bitches from SoCal! ;)

    Seriously, these meets are where I've made some great friends in the past and it's something I really missed while I lived in the UK.

    Yeah I need to get out to SoCal eventually too. Always look for it, but Merv and crew always wait til like the week before to announce anything. I need several months notice!

    Would loved to, but still during the school year. I usually do not have any time, especially this year, where things have been absolutely crazy.

    Mmm.. I'd take whatever you want to send! Haven't historically seen much EC wares down there. So far only a S7 with stock tubes (I think).

    A meet in Texas? Nice. It's too early to say what my availability will look like just yet (school and all of that), but I'd like to go.

    I'm really excited for this. According to the Head-fi thread, there's going to be a lot of really cool stuff there, including the HE-1000.

    I'm going to bring my gamma1.5. I'm hoping someone there has an O2/ODAC we can have an A/B station. I'd be willing to bet the gamma1.5 DAC/amp smashes the O2/ODAC in both tone and resolution.
