Hope you've had a great birthday Joachim! Cheers!

Thank you everyone. Had a nice one with my wife in our summer(winter)cottage. Now I’m preparing for Boxing Day +6. Birthday of both our children and one grandchild. Happy New Year everyone!

It won't last long but it is nice. Boxing day dusting.

Test build of Super-Carbon up and running to see what is what: PSU angle brackets are recycled from a previous, very tight, build, where those cutouts made perfect sense . Two small issues worth mentioning on amp boards. First, TTC004b and PZTA42 have opposite pinouts (ECB vs BCE) so if using TTC004b, transistor front needs to face heat sink. Second, you need to add some current limiting on the CS LEDs if you intend to use them. Running at +/-550V. No listening yet; need to build a more permanent CS supply solution first and also tidy up in general.

Happy Birthday!

new board in the stax mafia google drive has the orientation of the ttc004b fixed. edit: current limiting on CS LED???

Happy birthday.

Happy Birthday :3

Belated Happy Birthday, hope it was great!

I binged it in a couple of days. Some things are aesthetically Gilligan but overall I found it slow. Like the whole season could have fit a couple of episodes.

I meant the wh1000s sorry.

Happy Birthday!!!

Whatever the current Sony wf1000 series headphones is these days.

I don't know why anyone, other than the hardest core of audiophiles, would want any headphones with a wire anymore. So no specific recommendation (except that the B&Ws are overpriced for what they are, but you probably assumed that already) but a recommendation to look at Bluetooth phones.

Happy belated Birthday Ric!

Resurrecting a random thread rather than starting another. I got asked for a closed headphones recommendation and I am out of it on the current market. She is not an audiophile and doesn't want to spend a ton, noise canceling is ok but not critical, and doesn't want ear buds. Any thoughts?

My existing direct-drive trainer had started to had multiple signal drop issues so Santa was kind enough to bring me:

I love playing around with classic gear. But not 17k worth. I miss the days of $20 garage sale finds. Another 10 years and this sort of thing will fade away. Everybody that wants one will be too old to carry it.
