Karrin Allyson - In Blue

^ Nice album art earlier... Verve - remixed3 now... Norah Jones - Not Too Late

Go up to the SR225 at least. The letter "i" seems to be the most noticeable change on Grado's new lineup.

Mozart or Jazz usually helps fight melancholy.

Vivaldi / Bach: Helicon Ensemble - Jaap Schr

Nice

And now... Al Di Meola - Flesh on Flesh

Dire Straits - Brother's in Arms

Aimee Mann - Lost in Space

Glad to see all the Aimee Mann props. Bill Withers - Ain't No Sunshine

Brilliant

Beck - Sea Change then...

I hope you enjoy it - It's a good one. It's also in HDCD if your front end can take advantage.

Guns N' Roses - Chinese Democracy

The Highwaymen - Super Hits

Happy Belated birthday!! Don't let the g/f, family drama bring you down. They always work in cycles - just keep and even keel.

Miles Davis - Miles Ahead

I've been watching it. Really enjoyed it. I hope this creates enough buzz in California to help keep the state parks open.

You have a good point luvdunhill.

Where's the 50" flat screen?

I was just thinking that since the Sig 30 was designed to use battery power to theoretically have clean, more stable power, a gain stage bringing power in from the grid might defeat any of that benefit. Also, the idea that every extra component added to the "chain" runs the risk of degrading the sound. But... I really don't know. I may have heard it in all it's glory. If so, I was just underwhelmed considering how many really like that combo. It sounded good but not great to me.

I heard the Sig 30 with the K-1000s. I was pretty underwhelmed, but I think they were being held back by being double preamped. We were having a K-1000/HE-90 shoot out and Neil's house. I'd like to hear the Sig 30 again under better circumstances before I judge them. I do know that at another forum Krmathis (a long term O2 owner and fan) is amping the K-1000s with the Sig 30.2 and has his O2s mk.1 up for sale because the K-1000s are getting all his listening time for whatever that's worth. (stated in his FS post) That's the problem with the K-1000s and Stax. You have to have 3 different amps if you want to have normal headphones. I hope you can figure out a way to fund an amp or just sell them and focus on your other 50 headphones and not spread yourself too thin. A 300b amp would be ideal.

Your other phones are amped with one of the best. For the K-1000, the ZDT is the weak link IMHO. They should sound fast and extremely tight from top to bottom even if they aren't your taste.

They are different. Kind of like frost bite and a 3rd degree burn is different.

They have grown to that massive status because it's the only place people can get the real news. It's the only place that's not an Obama softball parade. Show me where they have been caught making anything up like 20/20 and others have? They back their stories up with facts as stated already. I don't always agree as I am not a disciple of any network, but I like to hear how jacked up things are under our current government and not just when a Republican is in office. It's both party's that are screwing things up, so don't play the liberal republican thing. It's boring and tired. No one really "gets" how bad taxes will bury us in the near future. Most likely after the next election for obvious reasons. We will start to understand that the bailouts and government run medical, etc. will cripple our pocketbooks for decades. This money will be all too real for us soon. And it's going to be a bitch and last for a loooong time. Bush started this spending trend and Obama has taken into the stratosphere. Neither Bush or Obama are bad or evil people to me unlike the fanboys of either side like to make them out to be, it's the system and party's they are tied to IMHO. That's a crisis that bugs the hell out of me. A future of hopeless financial struggling after we get out of this mess.
