For me it really wasn't even close. The L3000 are better phones in every aspect. The DT990 are priced in with the HD650 and K701 and they perform along a similar line.

The 7802's sound great in my new amp .

No way that was too coherent to sound like Ray

I would think a balanced dynalo would fit the bill.

Plenty of room for after market clocks and a zapfilter or transformer coupled output stage

I'm looking to get my first HDTV and right now these two are at the top of my list: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-4hNQdT9K5AE/cgi-bin/prodview.asp?I=305hls5679&wm=cl http://www.crutchfield.com/S-3V6SbpYDHGy/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=147350&I=15855A2000 My seating area is about 8 ft away so I'm thinking something in the 50" - 55" range would be just about perfect. The Samsung is about the top of my budget and I'd really prefer to spend less.

Nice to see a non-diy entry in the sub-$1000 balanced amp market.

Yeah I know, hopefully it'll ship out tomorrow then.

Tonight? It was supposed to ship out today

Happy Turkey Day everyone!

Damn that sucks, hopefully the speaker is ok and nothing was knocked loose. I'm pretty luck in that my friends and family know to treat my gear well and usually ask before using it.

My wait is just about over, I should be getting my new amp on Friday

I just wonder why you didn't get a new player and have exemplar transfer all of their parts over to the new player? If you factor in all the shipping you've done it would have saved you money by now.

I did some maintenance to the server today, that included some DNS changes. If you see the following in your browsers address bar: http://72.18.146.20/ then either your ISP or your computer is caching the old DNS entries. If your running Windows try opening up a command window and running ipconfig/flushdns and that should clear out any cached dns entries. If that doesn't work you may have to reboot your computer.

$7500 seems like a hell of a lot for that, does anyone know how much it cost new?

The hollowness and odd midrange are the deal breakers for me. The 650s and rs-1s are both cheaper and none of their flaws bothers me as much.

The W5000 are just one of those phones I've never really liked. The first time I heard them I thought they were ok but since I've had a pair on loan for a few months I've started to dislike them more and more.

Gears of War isn't the only reason I'm thinking of the Xbox 360, though it does have me leaning towards the 360 instead of the ps3.

Except HD-DVD is useless and I don't want the wireless adapter

I had thought about that but they are going to be impossible to get. Sony had committed to have 400,000 PS3s available for the US launch, but recent reports say they are only going to have 150,000 to 200,000 available at most.

I've been leaning towards the 360 mostly because I want Gears of War and partially because its cheaper.

If you were getting a new game system which one would you get and why?

That 40 ohm output impedance could very well explain any issues you were having Grados

Yep two gain stages and the output stage. To the best of my knowledge it's a new design. Yeah it'll easily drive anything, plenty of current and an output impedance of around 2 ohms should make it a great match with low imp. phones. The 6528 is a beast of a tube each one requires 5A of heater current, so the power supply should be rather impressive as well.
