Hello Head-Fi'ers!

Exciting news about our June 22 meet! Danny McKinney, @SageM , with RAAL-requisite / RAAL 1995, has plane tickets to fly out and join us! Between him and local folks, we will have an Immanis, Magna, SR1a/b, CA-1a, VM1a, and HSA-1b available for listening. Danny also hopes to bring a Feliks Envy with him. And, there is a slim chance he may also bring one or more additional very exciting amps. We will update this thread when we have a better picture of what he's able to bring.

We also plan to open up the meet to Head-Fi'ers from out of town for whom it would be worth traveling to hear this gear in a quiet-ish environment (at least up to the capacity we can accommodate). Should be a very exciting meet!

LoL, shouldnt have said rare, but I have a Warwick Bravura, which is pretty fun, and I have the Elysian Annihilator which might be interesting to some. I also recently got a Tor Nick tube amp, from Ukraine, you dont see those every day. I also have the new Hiby R8ii dap if people are interested, and a couple ZMFs including the new Bokeh which maybe people havent heard yet since new-ish. Geshelli J2 with the Sparkos op-amps too if people interested.

Hi, I'm from Austria but happen to visit friends in Boulder at the time of the meet. I would love to attend but I could hardly bring any of my gear from Vienna :-/. I was planning on just traveling with sony 1000xm4. Is it ok to attend just as a guest? If someone is interested I could bring the shure kse1200 along, I'm also willing to part with them as they sound great but don't fit well for me. Best, Nonno

    • GizAudio Chopin

    • Mega5est - the latest hype from DMS. Excellent. Making me reconsider my love for the U12t.
    • Along with a number of much more esoteric IEMs, including some xMEMS stuff.
  • TWS
    • Noble
      • Fokus Mystique (will be for sale - they're great, but too big for my ears :frowning2: )

      • Fokus Triumph
    • HiFiMan
      • Svanar Wireless - great, but the case is an affront to mankind - will be for sale
    • AKG - N400NC (will be for sale - fantastic, but too big for me :frowning2: )
    • JBL - Tour Pro 2
    • Devialet Gemini II - if you're looking for an incredible TWS, this is where you should look
    • Final ZE3000
    • Creative Aurvana Ace
  • near-TWS
    • iFi GO Pod
    • FiiO UTWS5 - both 2-pin and MMCX
If you wind up falling truly, deeply in love with anything I bring that isn't explicitly for sale, let me know - I'm trying to make room for more, so a lot of this I'd be willing to sell, I'm just not quite ready to admit that to myself yet haha

Whoa. That's quite a list. This is going to be one heck of a meet. :L3000:

Also, how are you going to fit that all in your car? :thinking:
