SoCal Mini Meet June 23rd 2018

Food will be ready at 12:30 then. Pretty traditional Lunch Time ought to work, no?

 

I plan on stopping by for a few hours. Thanks for setting this all up!

I'd prefer not to pack any heavy gear up (apartment with stairs ), but I can pack any of my lighter stuff if anyone wants to hear some:

HD800
Hifiman Edition X
Focal Elear
LCD-2
Ifi Ican pro
Matrix HPA-3B

 

Count me in.

And I'd really like to hear the Edition X, @elwappo99 - I'll bring my HiFiMan EF5, it's one of the best amps Fang released and should be a good pairing. I also have HE-560s coming in the mail this week.

 

Okay actually I'm going to go back on what I said. I'm getting the cheap DAC loaner package soon and the Dynalo is my only good HP amp at the moment. Or I use an O2 to see how well each DAC clips.

However I have no problem circulating it to you guys after the DAC loaner is complete.

Edit: or the alternative is someone loaning me an amp for a bit and I wouldn't mind the Dynalo disappearing for awhile.

 

I'm only seeing us with 2 desktop DACS, A Yggdrasil A2 and what will be a cold Modi Multibit?

 

I’ll bring the Topping D50 that amir said measured/sounded better than an Yggdrasil. Maybe someone from the meet can pass it on to @purr1n for measuring.

 

OK Cool, does that need a warm up like the Schiit DACs?

 

No.

 

I'll bring my RME Babyface Pro audio interface which can be used as a DAC. Not as well known as its other more detailed siblings, RME ADI 2 and ADI 2 Pro, but hopefully it'll do for comparison's sake.

 

Sorry for the slow update. I've been caught in something the past few days.

First post updated with attendees now.

@BillOhio can you please send us your address via PM?

 

It should have gone out this morning(?).

 

Oops, you're right. Sorry, for some reason, it didn't load new PMs for me. Got it!

 

I didn't get a PM but I know where you live if you know what I mean.

 

Hey guys have to get off this party bus, sorry about that, looks lkke a fun meet!

 

Yeah Man, was hoping you'd get here last so we could all watch you parallel park.

Brencho, damn.

 

Spoilered below because it gets annoying quickly

How is parking in your area?

Also, are we allowed to bring +1s if we're not maxed on attendance? I have a friend who can bring an awesome 45 tube based headphone amp.

 

Got work, won't be able to make it. Have fun!
