Time: Noon - 4pm
Location: 909 North Bluff Rd. Collinsville IL., 62234

From budget to totl if there is a headphone, iem, amp, or dac you were wanting to listen to it should be there. I will be bringing a TT with some rare and new carts including an miltek aurora, at30he, and bin 215 and 323. Hope to see you there...Oh and it's FREE!

Would you like me to send the GAS crew an email?

Sure thanks Bob. I hope to see you there. Yes I am on the ill side, just across the jb bridge. I'm free most Tuesdays if you would like a personal experience rather than an event setting. I do find because most headphones are intimate, meet events are still worthwhile even with open cans you can get a pretty good idea what to expect at home.

The location is where?  Is this a store at 909 North Bluff Rd. Collinsville IL., 62234? 
Also, 909 N. Bluff Rd. is 25 miles from the JB bridge, which is my book is not 'just across the river from'.
Is 909 NBR your store and your house is near the JB bridge?

Ken, I think the fella 'jibzilla', said he was right over the bridge isn't at the same location he's mentioning, which is being hosted by a different fellow, 'jseaber'.

BiStL,
Whoops!  I see the error in my ways, said the blind man to his deaf dog.
Thanks for pointing out the obvious, which I was oblivious to.

All good. jseaber is the owner of jps labs. The event is at his office which is the 909 address. They make nuwavguy's  o2 and odac as well as their own C5 portable which I am looking forward to hearing. He is about 20 miles north of where I live.

If anyone is going to the event via south county could a non-driver get a ride?

I'm not too far but I have a small car and lots of gear I'm bringing. Might be a tight squeeze.

Bryan, if I go, I will be able to take you. I need to find out Liam's schedule first, and I'll let you know.

Looks like it is.  A friend I know is going and I'll be there, as well.

The meet went very well imo. Some really great setups. Vinyl david that cartridge is made by lp gear, bin215. It is there new homc cart. I know you said it was not your cup of tea but at least you know what not to get. I think it's decent for $200 but not quite as good as grey market 2juki, kazu, etc. deals.
