I know I forgot to pack XLR and IEC-power cables for the Opus, so I imaging extras of these would be useful as well...
Fast Eddy: USB cables too thanks. Bring a wad of different cables- preferably with your name taped to them.
BRIAN: The DAC arrived 5 min. ago !!! No time to test it ATM.
Thanks! you did it!!

I vaguely recall that Sy said he might be bringing a turntable. And I
might be able to bring one if I can get some time to get the cartridge reinstalled and verify that it's working properly.

Chris, If you brought that we could all relax, and we wouldn't need any other turntables.
SY I assume that your Phono pre is for MC?

Not SY - but my phono stage handles MC cartridges well. I can also bring along some S&B step up transformers to use with other stages.

On my side - I just received by FedEx a very cool CD drive from LossLess Audio and their special power cords. Check their site - very cool stuff:
www.LessLoss.com/people.html
They are coming all away from Lithuania for the Burning Amp and I am sure they will be happy for us to use their really cool drive and DAC if needed.
There is Twisted Pear DAC as well so I think we are quite well put together on the digital side.
Next:
Schedule is posted on the site. Please make sure that times are fine for you and that you could comfortably make it. We do not want you stressed rushing to the show.

Brian: WOW! Sweet looking DAC, really looking forward to hearing it. Does the USB work with Mac or PC?
Lots of inspiring goodies in the gadgets preview thread as well.
I'm still scrambling to get the CUGS preamp ready ... it will be working, but at this point it's down to packaging. Right now the pieces are still on a sheet of plywood. The chassis still needs quite a bit of work and then final assembly, plus some power supply regulators. Worst case I'll have to run the preamp off my bench supplies, but either way my evenings will be busy leading up to the event!
In light of this, I've decided to scale back my effort just a hair (not too much)... I think I signed up to bring just a bit more than I can handle at this point, and with the larger attendance / # of exhibitors, there probably won't be enough time to show it all. So I'd rather focus on a few things instead of trying to bring everything plus the kitchen sink...
I'll still be bringing my CUGS w/ Rakk DAC (integrated into the preamp chassis) of course, plus the squeezebox, and my Krutke Seas L18 speakers and test gear. But since Jan and I agreed to collaborate and demo his error-correcting power amp together with my preamp and speakers, I've decided not to bring the tube amp (it runs, but needs a few minor fixes - don't think I'll have time to do it), and I'll probably leave the headphones out as well, unless someone desperately wants to hear the CUGS driving 'phones.
Safe travels to everyone... looking forward to seeing you all there!

Hi All, Looks like I will be able to make it to Burning amp. woot!
I can offer to bring a SlimDevices Transporter if anyone is interested.
I can also bring all the associated kit ( laptop, router, 300GB's of flacs) if required, but would much rather enjoy the event rather than baby-sitting a bunch of gear.
So if hiFiZen, or anyone else, is interested let me know.
Who knows, we may be able to answer the SB / SB + Dac / Transporter question.
Looking forward to meeting you all.
Grahame

OK I designate chrismercurio as the official turntable bringer. In this position, he is entitled to a nice gift from Nelson Pass, personally chosen. Gary B - bring your TT stuff...
WOW this is getting insanely good!! Maybe too much stuff..

Grahame,
SD Transporter would be great, and a welcome addition to be sure. I think most of the participants will be babysitting some gear, so don't sweat it - you'll fit right in! 🙄
I haven't decided exactly what I'll do for a slimserver. If someone else will already have a computer set up to handle slimserver duties, I can just bring a USB drive with FLAC files on it, and that would simplify my preparations a fair bit. I do have a contingency plan, but of course it would be more gear to manage.
Cool! I'm definitely gonna want a good listen to this one...

Did I miss some posts, or were there no formal(ish) arrangements made for the proposed Saturday pre-burn BBQ get-together?

Is there a WiFi or hardware Internet connect @ The Station?? 😱
