Jdisc is an easy item to ship flat..  any chance of just UPS the thing a few days early to where you are staying?

I guess i could, just don't feel like dealing with the disc this trip. i use it at local outdoor shows and that's about it. i want to try omnis at red rocks.

I'd jdisc it

from the section at red rocks you'd need more than 2 feet (imo) to prevent a "mono" sounding tape

why not bring a clamp and run on 2 different stands?

if you sold your miniDPAs, do you still have the jdisc you made for them..?

How about an easily transportable, disposable hrtf-like baffle?  ;)
