I smell an opportunity! Let's buy Koss! We've got enough PE, law, accounting, engineering experience here to put together a nice little package to help them out of this little hole. Then we run the show, and start R&D on the stat to slay all stats. Then we win.
Not to mention the civil suits filed against Koss by any non-family shareholders. And if I were Koss, I'd start thinking about potential claims against the various credit card companies whose risk/fraud departments didn't pick this up until just now.
When I saw Messiah at Carnegie Hall recently, it reminded me what a violin is supposed to sound like. Strings, wood, bow. No metal, which some sources would have me believe.
Listening to the TTVJ Portable right now. Setup is iMod-->TTVJ-->JH13. Very preliminary impressions are that it sounds damn good. The JH13s don't need an amp but they sure do like one. Moar bass quantity with the same extension, and without congestion.
Also the iPod is black and the JH13 muddy water blue, so that probably adds to the nice bass. Full impressions after the ALO iMod LOD has burned in for 2 years.
