Uh oh, what did I accidentally post now...I mean, what did my cats accidentally post now?

Wait didn`t you at one time on the HF stax thread say that you couldn`t hear any difference between the bhse you auditoned at a meet and your old 727? Anyway because the pads are long gone from manufacture and hard to source (unless you buy from the UK Stax distributor for around 200gbp) I would use any leather conditioning creams (use standard colour one for all leather not color matched to the brown on the Omega) for the earpads. This is what I did and do when I had an Omega 1 a moon ago and for my other headphones with leather earpads to prevent cracking.

Don't forget to replace that 10m90s as well. An easier option to finding the right shoulder washer is to use an insulating screw, such as the aforementioned nylon. Joehpj has a different PCB version; our negative rail isn't next to the bias.

Same as I met. I eventually rebuilt another PSU with new board. The bias rail and negative rail are really close. And may cause short in high humidity weather. Maybe it's the problem. The real cause still remains unknown. I had KGST powered up every night for about 4hrs for over three months. No further problem found.

Being able to deposit checks using a smartphone app and camera is one of the great innovations of the 21st century.

Its a no brainer get the 207, save up and then get the new O2 007 or 009`s. While some like the 507 I dislike it in every way and a side step from the 207 rather then a straight upgrade (if you ignore the model numbering). The 207 with the 252S amp can be had for around $550 shipped from Japan and even less if you buy from YJ Auctions.

In a sense I'm kind of relieved that Minsky made it to 88; that is not a bad innings. Everyone else on the list in the last month hasn't made it out of their 50's or 60's.

I'm in the same boat. I like the iphone 6S+ screen more than any but the iphone 4. If I've gotta go bigger than the 4, may as well go all the way big.

Was offered a dream one year research position with my absolute favorite professor in all of med school. The man is close to retirement as a practicing neurologist so this is one of the last year's he is taking on students. He can tell you which page any neurological disorder is on in the neurology bible and can act it out on cue but more importantly is one of the most humble and down to earth people I have ever met. It's a research position on paper but I basically would be an apprenticed to him and shadow him during any patient interactions in his office and in hospitals. Instead of MAYBE (he is so popular, his office does a lottery for students every month) doing a one month rotation with him in my third year, I get to take a year off after taking my first boards and spend an entire year with him. The fellowship comes with a tuition waiver for the last two years of med school so that's a huge help but most important of all, he wears scrubs every day and has no dress code for students rotating through his office! Says he can't think unless he is comfortable. He asked me to think about it over the next week and get back to him. I told him I was taking the spot immediately. There was nothing to think about to which he replied, "you kids get more impatient every year. Im not giving you the answers to the licensing exam, you know." Hooray!
