3 emotions.

I think that the 5 wires coming out of one side, knowing that one of them has to be safety ground should give you a real big hint as to how to fix them. But dumping in the garbage where they belong and getting a decent set of headphones is an infinitely better idea.

Yeah, no, sorry, I meant Monster-branded anything. I like (lower-case em I.E. non-branded) monsters, too. I googled "monster train wreck", and the image of Lindsey Lohan showed up in the results.

We are trying hard not to make orange juice. Take the hint? S-l-o-w d-o-w-n... Channelling Jules: "There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. "path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon you." Now... I been sayin' that shit for years. And if you ever heard it, that meant your ass. You'd be dead right now. I never gave much thought to what it meant. I just thought it was a cold-blooded thing to say to a motherfucker before I popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some shit this mornin' made me think twice. See, now I'm thinking: maybe it means you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here... he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or it could mean you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. And I'd like that. But that shit ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be the shepherd." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

i7 or I would have to leave Head-Case.

You mean if you don't click on the multicore benchmarks?

Happy birthday, Marc Eisensomething (as you are listed in my phone)! Hope you manage to celebrate some today!

Wait...what?

My 007A's have the pots plugged, use Mk1 springs and I did some small mods to the earpads. Due to the new headpad on these the correct fit is even more crucial than with the Mk1. Early would be from the early months of production. Serial numbers mean nothing at Stax. There is indeed nothing wrong with the phones, well not a long term thing anyway. It's just a combination of the metal stators, the film and its coating which is at fault here but it is a more frequent issue than with most other sets. Stax have always continuously tinkered with the designs over the production run. The 007Mk1 is actually three different headphones which just share the name for some reason. The 009 aren't perfectly fine (far from it actually) and my 007's aren't dark either. When Bob was here on Monday and Tuesday we chatted about the 007 and he said he didn't like them. Fair enough but it was also clear that the fit was never good for him so I taught him how to make them fit perfectly. When he gets back then we'll see if the better fit changes anything for him. The end result should be what the 009 could have been, an improved SR-Omega. To tackle the imaging the only thing I can do is to stuff the pads on the back. Well either that or just replace them or the stuffing. The bass is a bigger issue as there is clearly a section of the upper bass missing plus a suck out of the lower bass. There has to be an opening somewhere but I'll give it a week until I start ripping them apart...

It has to be better than not vacuuming at all. Go for it, Colin.
