I was just commenting on the photo hosting being back. I thought Jude said they wouldn't be bringing it back after the crash.

Head-fi photo hosting is back

I used a medium with my HP-2. I'm about to get a custom made case for my Omega 2 (the regular flight case is a bit of a PITA since I need to wrap the cable up to get the headphones to fit in). Still deciding on the wood

R5? Is that half an MDR-R10

I finally caught up on BSG. I'm so glad they didn't . Also I agree the Baltar conversation with the Centurion was legendary.

I completed half of the markl mod on my D2000. Basically stuffed the earpads and added Dynamat to the back of the earcup. I'll do the rest of the mods tomorrow. They do change the headphones, but with these initial mods they aren't any better than the stock headphone. As is expected the entire presentation is moved further back, but nothing else really improves much.

I wouldn't consider the M^3 to be a fagpiley amp, it's probably one the best SS amps If I still had the DT880 I would have liked to have used it with the Beta22, but I somehow doubt that would have changed my perception of them. It's not really the bass that is its sole weakness. The entire headphone doesn't sound natural to me.

Not very exciting or fun. And I had a backlog of about seven Lost episodes and a few BSG episodes that I've been catching up on. God damn lots of stuff went down.

They won't. At least the last time I heard the Thiels.

Huge room (either golden ratio or bigger) will be a top priority in my next house. No pushing the speakers closer to the wall to get bass crap. And since Sound Lab has so few dealers, they offer them up for an in home trial with money back return if you're not happy. Apparently they haven't had a single set of speakers ever returned.

Which DT990? I had the DT990-2005 and DT880-2005 at the same time and the DT990-2005 had a lot more bass than the DT880-2005. So I'm not going off memory.

The owner of Sound Lab is a very nice guy. Was willing to set up an audition for the Majestic 945 with a private owner even though I told him I couldn't purchase them in the immediate future.

I've heard very few speakers that have the resolution of the Stax I suspect the ones that do are in the $15000+ price point.

I'll break it down why the DT880 is a piece of shit: -awful shrill piercing highs -terrible midrange, unnatural and cold. Horrible midrange timbre -bass light with poor extension At least with the D2000 it's more of a Grado PS-1-ish sort of presentation where the bass is overpowering but the rest of the headphone isn't so terrible. Moot point since the Omega 2 crushes both of them.

The TDA shot is yummy. Nice and in focus too

Chocolate covered pretzels from a local candy store (much better than Flipz) and A&W root beer.

You know you have to post inside pictures of that one now

Empirical Audio does.

Posting inside pictures of DACs is so H-C fotm (I'll hop on this bandwagon)

I'll put up unresized images either when I can access my FTP or when Head-Case makes the switch to the new forum software.

All hail the glorious Stax fart!

Monkey's Audio (APE) has been long dead. The developer said it won't be updated anymore.

I'll add both of you guys when I feel like getting on. Omega 2's stealing my free time!

Since the diaphragm holds a charge I've always tried to store them in as close to dust free environment as possible. So I put them away in a box or a case.

Sounds good.
