January Sounds Good
I hope your not snowed under in those hills. I didn't want to have to travel so far in the Snow Plough.

Any idea what kind of date you'd be looking at?
May be a bit early for me as I'm still waiting for a couple of bits from China.
I'd like to bring the Bigbottle up for a listen. Not a competitive listen, just interested in how it sounds next to Nick's benchmark phonostage, The MFA.

#504 HEDD speakers
Adam is a very well established and respected brand in the pro world with some crossover into domestic hi fi. A couple of years ago the chief designer left and with his son set up HEDD. Since then their studio monitors ( which all use an AMT in a waveguide) have been causing a bit a sensation amongst audio engineers and other studio professionals. They are now about to debut their flagship model, the Tower Main which is aimed at both the pro and domestic markets. I suspect it’s going to be rather good. I’ve been talking to the UK distributor and he would be happy to bring a pair along to a future meeting and get feedback from a hi fi orientated audience. If there is interest I am happy to make the arrangements. These are active speakers BTW.

Firstly,
I really hope the weather holds, allowing for a safe journey, as I have been looking forward to attending.
Secondly,
With the special Vinyl replay device on board, is the day leaning toward a vinyl replay day, as I am trying to get a few Phonostages up for a Demo, but don't want to contribute to unbalancing the 'Bring a Device' Theme for the day. I can quite happily wait for a Phonostage Day to do this.
Thirdly,
If of interest, I have a unopened Led Zepplin, 'How the west was Won' Vinyl/CD Box set, would anybody want to hear this ?

I'll come over and see what's happening.
