    I just found and ordered this watch from amazon, not the most interesting of watches but certainly sleek and not too expensive.

    Well, yes, that is the bigger problem. I need/want a new watch and have not found any that have peaked my curiosity yet. By the way, that Nixon is way too crazy for me!

    It is really annoying that they don't have deals for cool watches for women!
  4. The black cable felt much more sturdy to me than the clear.
  5. Yep, red is always faster. Just picked up the 640GB.
  6. Sherwood, that is a sweet looking bass.
  7. OK, I have been trying not to react too quickly/strongly to my new toy but... HOLY SHIT, the ECD-1 GS-1 JH13 is great. OK, I got it out of my system.
  8. Yeah, the Carolina blue trans is great. The setup GS-1 and JH13 are made for each other, really transparent setup. I could not be happier with the sound. I think the seal is slightly better in the left ear but I think I am getting a pretty good seal in the right ear.
  9. True, but nothing I make myself will ever be allowed on a the plane. I am still considering a DIY project for the bedroom setup or office but since my projects don't seem to ever get finished, I need something in the meantime. On the other hand, I am listening to to the JH13's on the Corda 2Move right now and they sound damn good so maybe I should cancel the Pico.
  10. It has been a great morning. I got the 64" cord which is the perfect length from my GS-1 to my recliner. :prettyprincess: :prettyprincess:
  11. Finally gave in and ordered Pico DAC/AMP to go with the JH13 for travel and in the office. I tried to be different but it is no use.
  12. They will be paired with the GS-1 and ECD-1 as soon as I get them home tomorrow. :dance::dance:
  13. JH13's are shipped and should be here tomorrow! It will be a good weekend.
  14. Hmm, interesting, I thought that keeping the Desktop portable plugged in all the time would lead to me having to send it back every year. I will have to call up HR and ask.
  15. I would be very interested to know if the answer to this. I thought you could not since you are supposed to send it back to Headroom to have the battery replaced. Looking at these picture, the batteries looks like they are not easily removable. http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue41/headroom.htm
  16. Al: Thanks for notes about the noise floor with the HR Desktop. This is certainly very tempting indeed. I was planning to do the G-lite + Pico Dac for the office but having an all in one amp/dac (which would make it a possible transportable solution) plus the ability to do optical is very tempting. Do you think the Astrodyne would be noisier than the DPS? I assume that one cannot use the Portable Desktop as a desktop rig (i.e. keeping it plugged in instead of charging the battery and using it unplugged all the time) without having to get a new battery every year - the size of it is nice.
  17. I have a question for Al or whoever else has a Headroom Desktop amp/dac (home) and a pair of JH13's. Is there *any* hiss with this amp on low with the JH13's with the volume at a reasonable level and no music playing? I was originally thinking of trying to get a Glite+DPS and a Pico Dac for the office. But then I was thinking that the Headroom desktop amp/dac is more transportable and I could take it with me for 1-2 week long trips (or maybe I would just be lazy and grab the 2Move or just go for the ipod instead). On the other hand, maybe I will just *try* to build something like a CK2III for the bedroom and move the Stello DA100/HP100 to the office (currently in the bedroom).
  18. Happy Birthday! So what color are the JH13's?
