Ok... This was a killer meet. The NKOTTT (New Kids On The Travel Team) I think payed homage to the FL Travel crew. I have to be up for work in a few hours, so this will be quick. A big thanks go out to Mike, Alex, Al, Matt, Jeff... wait, let me just put who not to thank. __________ I want say that my fav rig was Alex's Exemplar 2900 -> Luxman P1 -> Grado HP-1 (I dug the one with switches over the other two... not sure if it's "coolness" factor of the switches or the "shrunken bowls" (they seemed to be about 80% size to me). Vicki's rig is sick. Matt's vinyl rig sounded REALLY good on the HD800s. That was really enjoyable. One big thing I'd like to do is mirror Mike's sentiments and really really send a heartfelt thanks to the Zu guys. I spent a solid half hour listening to them over the two rooms, and I did like them for some things, others it was harder to make an opinion of as I wasn't familiar the music, but it I can kinda understand why you wouldn't throw on "standards". Anyways, these guys brought a ton of gear a long long ways (drove from about 1.5 hours further away than me, passing my place along the way just off the interstate. I though the 5 hours I spent going through airports and planes was bad!) The Zu guys were really passionate about what they do, and you could tell they enjoyed it, even when they were winding down. Oh, before I forget, @Dash for getting sick and having to back out. I missed seeing him there and hanging out. OK, I've fallen asleep at the keyboard thrice now, so let me just say I'll be adding some more to it later. Thanks to all who made it happen, and for giving me yet another great weekend with friends. **BRENT** P.S. On our way out to the airport we got behind a cab... just though I'd post up one of the last pics I grabbed.

Pancake House, if anyone's interested... **BRENT**

Fire alarm... 8:37am. Toast? Burnt. People? Pissed. It's been hypothesized that I was just too hot and set off the alarm. **BRENT**

I just took a shower. A douche for a douche!

^ Wish you were too, Dan. Especially since Vicki has her new MBP and doesn't know how to use it yet. **BRENT**

Call the hotel when u land and they send the shuttle... takes about 15 minutes. **BRENT**

Heh... bastard. **BRENT**

The curse of #s... "I always wake up at 7"... doesn't mean we have to. Ok, it was 7 central for me, and Al got back to sleep. 2 hours extra for me over normal, though. Alex, you're a slacker. Pm me if u are coming to the hotel... Oh... the dumbass who packed my laptop forgot to put the charger in Anyone have a spare charger for a compaq cq60?

Didn't stop #s... **BRENT**

Pizza, beer, liquor, dead hookers... good start so far. **BRENT**

X2 **BRENT**

New job in 1 hour, flight in 12. **BRENT**

Hey... if the bar(s) are beer only, I'll be sober and can drive. **BRENT**

Probably a repost, but something this morning reminded me of this so thought I'd share. **BRENT**

Fay lease koom play ahnn yozs! **BRENT**

All you have to do is buy them for someone... I'm sure they would in return get you a pair as well! Just a thought. **BRENT**

That's a beast, V. Did you get my text? Congrats. **BRENT**

JH13 (That means "Congratulations on waking up alive enough times to reach the 21st anniversary of your birth"... in Mexican). **BRENT**

FTFY Dinny **BRENT**

You know, I was kinda hoping to have a PM saying "JH13s ordered, here's my address for zee Grahdoze". Oh, real quick, does anyone know what they usually sell the cables for separately? **BRENT**

/me slow claps for Dinny. I'm proud of you kids who took the plunge. I was at work, toiling away, hoping to set aside a bit towards the fund, but I did hop on the forum on my phone to see if there was anything going on and saw two new pages of JH 13 goodness. FWIW, now that I have 7.5 hours a day with iM716s, I realized that they are relatively uncomfortable. **BRENT**

I will be at work then... however, if anyone wants hf1/hf2 matching combo for jh13 sale price order me up a pair and I will ship out grados before thanksgiving. **BRENT**

From JH Audio's Facebook page... JH Audio You've heard of Black Friday..just wait until Black Wednesday! Most awesome deal of the year on the JH13 only from 9-11am, 11/25/09. Stay tuned for details! JH Audio | Facebook **BRENT**

I wanted 640s, but I 500s were 2/3rds of the price at 78% of the capacity. I'll probably wind up selling one of the 500s to a friend to offset the $$$, but ripping it out and doubling up in my comp would be nice. I guess I could put the 250 in it now into the portable enclosure? **BRENT** *Edit* You know, if my buddy doesn't want to snag it (or doesn't need it), I may just keep it as my Jesusmas gift from the fam. Could have one external 500 and one internal 500. We shall see. Maybe someone bought extras. I know there were some extra 500s bought here.

Toshiba 500GB USB 2.0 Port External Hard Drive 40$ Toshiba 640GB Toshiba Portable External 60$ Plus tax. Free shipping over 50$ (get 2x500gb drives, give one to a friend as a gift... still comes in 11$ cheaper after tax than just 1 does from amazon). The guys in the chat already bought up half of 'em, so I'd hurry. It's also on slickdeals.net, so I doubt it will last long. It is also confirmed that a 1.99$ 15$ off 75$ coupon from ebay works. **BRENT**
