Is this something similar to Burning Man? Can I come dressed up weird and covered in dirt?  8)

Burning Amp is the largest DIY show in CA. Nelson Pass will be giving a presentation. People bring speakers, amps, turntables scratch built, kits or rebuilds. It is a very fun event. I will be demonstrating two systems, a rebuilt Motorola EL84 amp, Bottlehead Quickie battery powered preamp, Onkyo C-7030 CD player and a pair of ADS 420/2 speakers. My other system will be a " Cheap and Cheerful Hifi" system consisting of a TDA7297 amp, Sony Playstation, and a pair of Braun Output c speakers. At last years show this system received more attention than my main system which was centered around a Bottlehead SEX amp. I will also be donating a couple TPA7297 amps for the raffle.

Anyone can be in the show, hope to see you there. You do not even need to bring a complete system, the coordinator will match whatever you bring with other people's equipment.

Leica,
I'm planning on going, and looking forward to it.  One question I had was whether people play music on their systems or are the displays static?

People play music on their systems, bring your favorite CD's to play. There are a few static displays like half finished projects . If you are coming please come by and say hi.

Leica,
Given the pics I've seen of last year's Burning Amp, you may not be the only one  :wink:

I'll find you if I make it.  There are a couple of us from S. Bay and lower E. Bay that are up for the trip.

Leica, if you really want some attention with a TDA7297 you should ask to borrow one from someone that got boards from me.

I would love to meet Nelson Pass, but to far away for me.

I'm going and was wondering if I should bring a pair or two of my DIM (Did It Myself) speakers.  Leica m3, do you have some speakers to play on your system?

I have speakers for my system, please bring yours, there will be someone with an amp to hook up with your speakers.
