@paul02: Thks for the suggestion bro. I'm okay with anyone willing to pop by with their non-ATH gears actually, but this meet is mostly created for and by ATH owners, so I think there's no need to start another dedicated thread for this. Do kindly add yrself to the list if u're interested to turn up! :)

I feel like I'm imposing on you guys. Since it's a ATH appreciation thread. I guess maybe it won't really be nice for me to turn up with my other gears :X

No lah don't say that, what impose lol. The gears are all gonna be there, one more person tk and listen the avail ATH gears lying ard or come mingle with us, there's nothing bad or intruding abt that at all. As long as u're friendly to strangers like me and u don't harbour any hatred for ATH as a brand, u're of course very welcome to join us for this ATH meet. :o

Besides, I think I rem that u seem to be working for Sennheiser svc centre for yr sch attachment? I'm considered relatively new to most Sennheiser stuffs, so if u could bring a few stuffs down to let us try, I would be more than glad to tk up yr offer actually. ^ ^

Anyway there are also other forum members in here like Rickysio and Rubick who don't have any ATH gears currently iirc, but i believe they are still coming down to support the event. Yeah but the choice is ultimately yours though, will leave it up to you to decide. :)

Congrats on yr new ATH headphones purchase Saionji! ;)
And welcome to the club of course hehe. Yeah those AD series sure are comfortable, there's no way in hell I would part with my AD1000PRM after trying them, even if someone offers to buy it off my hands. :s13:

Let's see how it goes then. Yes I did internship at Sennheiser and I own a lightly used HD 600's.

No prob, Rubick it's alright. Anyway just exchanged a couple msgs with my ATH chairman/co-organiser, currently we have quite a few problems at hand cos due to my lousy connections/incompetence, i couldn't secure a good venue yet for hosting the ATH meet, despite that I went to recce quite a few pretty quiet cafes earlier this week during the evenings, but somehow the reviews on hungrygowhere and the actual spot ambience doesn't quite match up and is alittle noisier compared to what i read. :s13:

I think we need somewhere that can last/operate until 11pm or midnight, cos in btw i'm quite sure some of you would like to grab a bite so we will head for quick dinner first before we kickstart the event. Then there's also the issue of power points as well, so far all the cafes I checked they cannot provide any power points for us.

Worse come to worst, I will just postpone this meet till somewhere in the near future, when there's more ppl involved or we have a proper private venue to host it. But I will wait for my co-organiser to come in first, and see what he has to say before deciding. :)

@kenz Wah kenz you bought W3000ANV ah, gx gx on yr hoot. Damn power right, I consider the W3000ANV a more technical-performing woodie than ATH's W-series flagship W5000, as it corrected alot of flaws in the W5000 and is generally more well accepted with wider genre bandwidth. But unfortunately i think in terms of midrange coloration, I think the W5000 still bodes with my personal taste/listening preferences better. But of course in terms of looks the W3000ANV wins over W5000 for me. :)

@Rubick: lol I saw the Vorzuge thread liao, understood that yr one already arrived together along with those who MO-ed the amp with you. Too bad i can't join u guys tmrw cos not free, perhaps some other day bah got chance will arrange personally with you agn for coffee one day. ^ ^

Hi Haonan,

No worries. Putting together a meet is always challenging.

There's a nice little place in orchard, The Hot Nob Cafe, rather quiet and private dining cafe.

There's a wide selection of food and beverage, and if the store permits maybe can book the place for the evening till 11.00 pm.

The food and atmosphere is nice and conducive for private meets for over 20 pax. :)

Maybe can check it out.

Hey kenz, thanks for the suggestions and advice. Will check it out with them tmrw by making a phone call to ask. You have any idea if their staffs are willing to provide tables with power points for us to use? I think Randius wants to bring his AT-HA26D together along with his MBA for the guys to try out the avail ATH headphones, and I also have my HP-A3 which needs a main to be avail, cos I got a separate USB power supply device to power the HP-A3 itself, to give the DAC/amp a cleaner power source.

My friend just smsed me about Epilogue Cafe yest, I haven't been to this place before cos i'm not really a book nook, but if anyone of you has any idea during evening times they are deem a suitable place for hosting such events, please do feedback in here and I will email them soon. Seems like from their website, you can make arrangements with them to do booking for some private events. But I think there might be some additional cost involved for event booking according to my friend.
