Went to the DFW mini-meet. Last one was all Sennheiser stuff other than my 2nd system.
This time, lots of Stats. I did a bit of horse trading and when it was done I got rid of
two Stax amps and one of my sets of Stax headphones. I went home with some cash
(that the Mrs. confiscated) and a Grado RS1, as well as a
portable Ibasso d12 DAC/AMP. So I now have a a Stax setup,
A Senn hd-650, and a couple of Grados. The big surprize: the Ibasso.
It sounds pretty good with a set of Grado's. This one may have to stay in my office.
I also got a chance to listen to a Senn HE-60 and a Stax sr-009.
There was also a HD-800 Senn there as well.
A great way to spend an afternoon.

I appreciate you posting the link about. I tried to get enough stuff done so I could make it, but I guess it wasn't in the cards.
Sounds like you had a great time.

We really didn't shut down until almost 7 pm.
Not a ton of people, but most knew each other and with great gear
it was fun. Nick was a good host and did a good job with everything.
The he-60 and SR-009 pretty much shows you that headphones can
match any speaker for outstanding sound."The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." --Thomas Jefferson
