Hold your breath everyone, it's time for an AUSTIN HTF GET TOGETHER!!! It's been ages since we've had a meet, so gosh darnit, it's about time!
Humphrey and I are going to do a comparison of the AE900 and CRT next Saturday, the 25th, at 7:30 at my place. He also suggested Jay might be interested in bringing over his AE700 to do an old model vs current model comparison. And, if we have time we'll watch a movie after the demos. If anyone wants to bring other projectors to add to the mix, please feel free, the more the merrier.

I'll be there. Any chance you guys will have filters on hand? I'd like to see what help an ND filter would have on my old Sharp.

Of course I'll be there.
Equipment I'll be bringing: - Panny AE900
- Oppo Digital Upscaling DVI DVD Player
- 15' DVI -> HDMI cable (monoPrice)
I have a 10' DVI->DVI cable as well. Speak up if I need to bring it as well.
Chad will you bring your 81C filter? I'd love to see any differences it makes.

I paid for 2-day shipping, so I should have it in time.

I will be there with my Mits HC3000U. Do I need to bring my Oppo DVD player? Anyone going to be there that is a whiz at calibration? I have AVIA and the GetGrey disk. Should have Hoya 77mm multicoated filter by then as well.
Also will need contact info and directions.

I'll be there with my AE700. Looking forward to see the differences in the upgrade.
Bob,
Welcome to the Austin HT forum!

Bob: Welcome to the Austin group of crazies.
I'll try to make it (daughter and her fiance will be here - maybe I'll drag 'em along).

I'd like to come. I could bring my ND2 filter. I don't think I need to bring my 4805 but I could if there's interest. I can dig up some HD content if we need some of those to play, presumably off of Jonathan's HTPC.
