Hmmm, maybe in a custom vintage audio case? I know that naamanf recently took on some builds (and you'd most certainly get more than your moneys worth there), but I don't know if he plans to do any more. I'd recommend the builder of mine, but I'll let him chime in himself if he has any interest. I here Nate's not very busy though!

I kind of got the gist of it from the other posters, and the "bitch slapping" comment was purely in jest. I did understand soon after that you were actually complimenting my phones if anything, I was just puffing my chest for dramatic effect, and being silly.

I've never spent any real time with one, but I've owned several Sony ES units, and the reliability factor was very, very good.

I had mine built for me, as my skills with a soldering iron are sadly much less than my skills with a table saw, and those are questionable. I picked a builder who wasn't offering his services, but who had built one for himself successfully. I thought it might help us both, as he might get some deserved attention, and I'd get a nice amp without the wait of the well known builders that were swamped with work. That worked out exactly as planned, and was a very pleasurable experience on my end at any rate. I have projects and plans with other builders as well (I kind of like collecting gear from people I admire), but also have a current project in the works with the builder of my ?22. That speaks to my satisfaction with our original projects.

Nice Justin! Those players are as sexy looking today as the day they debuted.

Well I'm crossing my fingers that when you attack it again tomorrow you'll be able to sort it all out and continue on.

I feel the exact same way. I came in defending him. And I still stand by that as far as charging for the mods. He came in with an attitude about HC though, and I tried to politely offer a few insights into how to approach this site. I was all thinkin' he was a decent enough guy getting a bit of a bad rap. Then he kept spewing more and more self grandeurizing vomitus, and I just couldn't stay silent. He should definitely learn to come in and jab, then dance around the ring for a while, but most self important assholes never learn when to shut the hell up. It was an eye opening experience, and in the end I'm glad I got that peek into the real markl.

Now I'm really bummed I didn't take the time to hook mine up to the Zana at the last Dallas meet. By the time I got around to it he had already loaded his gear up.

You know if this thread exploded on HF we'd all be clambering to post it over here, and tear it apart. Seems kind of anticlimactic now. Oh hell who am I kidding. That asshole was beggin' for it, and it was fun as hell rippin' him a new one!

Your integrity oozes from your poetic posts, so no manufacturers bother to try to sway you from your holy path. You are the enlightened one. Even though it may seem more fun to play the self inflated flatulent, Denon modding fuckwad, your path was already chosen Master Fitz.

Amen Brother, but once you give them all the juice they ask for they mezmerize.

I think I've uncovered the man behind the markl mask.

:rofl:

Ooh, I must've missed all that. But I did go from being slightly put off by him to an actual fan. That was in good portion my own stubborn dickheadedness though.

Oh that's not the kind of moniker I had in mind. Yeah Reks! :prettyprincess:

Certainly oicdn, uhm I mean saint.panda.

Reks, has this guy not earned a custom moniker at the very least?

markl modded Denon D5000.

Dew Eeet!

Oh my god, I had no idea. Well I guess you are the Mack Daddy aren't you? I apologize for my prior ignorant comments. My Mom slapped me when I was five, and my Brother pissed in my Corn Flakes! I just can't get past it! Can you help me?

Dear saint.panda I'm writing to inquire if you'd be interested in reviewing the Flying Peppermill. It would be of the utmost importance for our growing little company to obtain a review from a member of your demi-god status. Please don't let us down! Sincerely S

Writing a lube review could offset some of the costs of your other hobby though. " I like Velvet Glide because it feels real good on my hoo hoo, and it doesn't stain my sheets"...

Any fuckin' slob with a high post count and some rudimentary writing skills has most likely been contacted by manufacturers for one reason or another. I've been contacted several times. I've also been contacted and asked to write reviews for Stereo Mojo. Am I some kind of demi-god? Fuck no! I'm a guy on a fuckin' website that may have some simple insights to pass along. The day I start thinking that I'm more important than I really am, is the day I start turning into an asshole who runs down others because they're not as important as he is. When the truth is that most of us here don't care to ride that train, even though we've been sent the free tickets. You truly don't see what an asshole you are do you? You would have been well served to make a few quick points and leave, but you had to blow your fuckin' horn loud and proud! Well you've very much succeeded in turning me, an indifferent member into a someone who grimaces at the sight of the name markl ! At this point I'm not sure anyone gives a fuck. No ill will meant towards you purk, it's just that this guy is hard to stomach.

You have a twisted sense of humor. I love it!

Yeah, well I'm starting to think it isn't a good fit for you either. OK Fitz, you can go back to work now. I'm really done. It's gotten to this...
