Good Evening.... Infidel
Plan of action is down to plain, simple bake-off: chat, drink, eat, play music, maybe swap some kit. I am 99.9% sure I won't have access to anything from work, but tone might bring something.

Ok, can people reconfirm attendance? This is weekend after this one, saturday 14th.
Would this be an opportunity to hear a Wadia in Action?

I don't have one, so only if someone else brings one.

Not stock is fine, I'm looking to improve on my modified G98.

My I suggest you borrow a 301/2 from MAX, and demo at home, for a true reprsentative picture, failing that an 861.
Also that would give you a chance to manaerise it
I've not yet heard any a/v processer (even well played with Lexi's) that could produce anything close to decent 2 channel sound.

Hmm... looks like there's a possibility that I can have a Zetex Acoustar on hand on the day.
Thanks Tony
I would feel obliged to buy from MAX if I had a dem with them, I've already been there and had a change of heart on dCS kit so I'll pass on that.
I was looking into the Wadia 7, as I already have a decent DAC, but having just spent quite a wedge on having the G98 transport modified and ultimately finding that I prefer a stock Meridian 500 I need to stop buying things blind. I've got an Apogee Big Ben arriving next week and could have bought a Wadia 7 for what I've spent in the last month on the cost of modifying the G98 transport, buying the 500 transport and the Big Ben master clock.

Gary,
The 7 is nice transport, you just have to be careful where you put the PSU, and a aftermaket umbilical pays dividends too, I've only ever modded one of these very rare, and being a 2 box unit not every ones cup of tea.
Though they are supremely musical
The 270 SE is a better bet IMHO.
If you wish to hear how a correctly set wadia can sound then please PM

Yep, can definitely make it
Isaac is it still okay for me to bring the stock superdac up?I'll PM you or give you a shout on IRC for directions (or give me a postcode and I'll let the AA routeplanner do the rest
, since it seems a fairly straightforward journey up until I get off the motorway).

Yup, no probs will.
Don't want too much kit on the day, but we can have a few bits here and there.
