Yo bro sup! Cool, good to know that! Looking forward to yr impressions of the AD2000X as well hehe. Btw bro, got look into the buyings links I provided for u in terms for AD1000PRM? So u ish hooting brand new ones or still getting that 3rd-hand used set from that Head-fier dude?

Guys this is just a tentatively unconfirmed proposed idea for now, but i'm considering to organise a local ATH-gear meet-up somewhere ard the lunar CNY period, either on the February 8th Friday (one day before CNY eve), or on the 2nd day of CNY, which is February 11th Monday. I don't do new year visiting for the whole CNY festive season, but the 10th is prolly out for me as I will not be free for the whole day that day. 11th I should be able to come out after noon.

Gear rigs wise, I will not be able to provide any proper desktop rigs/source though, cos this is not going to be a huge event so I will not be tranporting all my stuffs via cab, but I'm still aiming for a closed door event and not somewhere outdoor for the safety of our own rigs. If someone is able to provide a gd idea for the venue, please do come in to provide yr ideas.

The gears I'm able to provide for now: *tentative, may be subjected to changes*

ATH-AD1000PRM (with mystery secret guest, one of the ancestors from their Air Dynamic line-up)
ATH-W100
ATH-ESW9
ATH-FC700
ATH-CK100PRO
ATH-CK100
ATH-CK9
ATH-CM700Ti
AT-PHA05BT LTD
AT-PHA10
Fostex HP-A3
TTVJ Slim
Audinst AMP-HP

Now is dead broke, so can't buy either one

And Randius, if u're reading this I will need yr help in organising. I can't do this alone.

Let me take a look and see how to go about doing this. Yes, most likely it will be a small, indoor meet. Hopefully the venue can have power socket so I can use my HA26D

Started out with CK7 which went so well with my Cowon player. Then CK9 which had weak cabling.

Currently using AD900 which has incredible airiness.

Would love to have the ESW9. Anyone interested in letting go PM me?

 

[Haonan]

@racoiaw: Started collecting their stuffs since ard 2008 actually, and I don't usually like selling away my gears especially for those that I quite like its soung sig, cos when u buy sell, u start to lose alot of yr original money investment in that way. Most of the ATH stuffs i bought i can honestly say i quite like/appreciate all of them, the only setup that i don't exactly utilise much these days is my ESW9, mainly due to its bass response and how its cup earpads tend to give me fatigue in terms for my ears after short periods of listening.

@Randius: Thks bro! Yeah really need some brain-storming wrk soon. Can't think coherently yest night since i was pretty sleepy, but now that i've woken up i seem to recall last time some of my friends used to rent some places in the city for small LAN parties one , those cater for 10-20 ppl in one rm with sockets avail one. Will check up with them and see whether they still have the contacts.

I have NTUC membership so i might be able to get Downtown East/Costa Stands function rm as well, but I think those along the lines might be quite costly actually for such a small event, lol. Well we still have some time ahead of us, so no hurries.

Will check out the details soon and revert back.

@Haonan @Randius: I'd see if I can find any venue too! But CNY priod not sure if everyone can make it

By the way... do you think we can get ATH SEA to sponsor us?

I will be discussing this with the AT SEA sales manager but I don't think any sponsorship will be available in such a short period of time. Let's see how the first meet goes and perhaps the result may prove interesting to AT.

 

[kenz]

oh oh .. something to look forward for ATH fans

Thanks Haonan & Randius.

You guys can actually comment and vote whether u prefer on the Feb 8th or 11th. 8th is on a Friday, it will most likely be held in the evening times as during the day, most of us would prob be at sch or work. 11th is the 2nd day of the Chinese Lunar New year. That one can probably be arrangedd during the day, most likely from 1pm to 6pm like that.

There seems to be a lack of responses so far. So I just have to warn you guys first, if headcount is not enough for this ATH meet most likely this event will not pull through. I can probably still meet up with Randius though he wants to test out my gears, then see who wanna join in but probably I will not bring everything liao. Even though my gears doesn't involved full desktop setups, lugging 4 full-sized cans + several portable items can still be quite a feat for someone who does not drive.

No prob. Kenz would u be coming down for this meet? Maybe you guys can start voting the day you prefer, then I will keep track of the headcounts too, so I can see which appropriate venue I can pick according to the amount of people.

 

[Guan22]

Damn. I should be working.
Mon, 11 Feb, around 2pm would be my best time.
