He could get a North Star M192 DAC and its CD Transport. I believe even with Empirical Audio mods it should be only slightly more than $5000.

Oh my god I was half awake when I read it the first time. That's hilarious I know it's like saying an Indian person that doesn't like mangos! postjack get crackin on that watermelon

I hope Criterion continues to remaster/repackage movies when the new HD format takes over.

I see, it should still be interesting. Though it looks like the book is OOP. I might be able to get it from the library when I move. Tonight I'll start watching the Metal Gear Solid Saga Volume 1 DVD, since I finally found a copy for cheap. Very excited for MGS4, with the two new videos just released.

That Apogee looks really good, that would be the nicest ADC I've ever seen used in a needle drop I doubt my TT/cart would be up to snuff, it then becomes the weak link

I haven't, I will get it at some point.

No you didn't send it. But any generic toslink cover fits on it. I got a few extra with my HT receiver. Thanks for the offer, and remembering Oh definitely. I'll keep the paper sleeves just for completeness sake.

MMF-5 TT, undecided phono-stage and an E-MU0404 as the ADC. I believe I have the same drop as you, the one off OiNK. It's ok, but can be improved. Most of those guys use ok gear but they use poor ADCs like X-Fis and Audigys.

It's damn good. (Kurosowa fanboy)

Yeah thats right. It's a pretty sweet set, would have been cooler if the booklet was a little different from the CD's. I will have a Head-Case needle drop up hopefully before the end of summer

mulveling do you really have two L3000s?

Flipping through the huge booklet is very cool. And since I don't have my analog rig running I spoke to one of the physicians I knew at DHMC and he said I could spin it on his setup. VPI + Avantgarde Duos = yum

I assume his question was if I bought these and they broke will AT service them. I didn't think he wanted to mod a pair with L3000 drivers. Anyway apparently working with AT Japan is a smooth process.

What do you guys think of JM Labs speakers in general? Like the 1037Be or Divas?

But there is wood under the leather it blow my head fool Oh no you di'int. This is no fotm. L3000 > mortals

Leik what kinda gay manufactur puts leather on their headphones. Get some darth vaginas you pansies.

Hirsch have you heard the 70s Tesla PCC88 tubes? My SHA is eating up and spitting out 6DJ8s like a...I don't know.

Thats the spirit! Stay positive Eat

I'm going to bump this in three years. Ok.

I'm down for a meet that weekend. I think I'm going to a bachelor party in Newport that Friday night, so I would prefer a Sunday meet. As for hosting I can ask my parents, I'm sure they'd be fine with it unless they were having friends over. They have a huge finished basement that's pretty much empty except for a gym. They live just outside Concord (in Bow) so I think it would be fairly accessible to anyone. I could offer up my apartment in Hanover, but I'm pretty sure my lease is ending before that.

A slice of meatball and tomato pizza from a local pizza place. And I made a garden salad for a side. Too lazy to cook tonight.

All good points. Similarly I know I can afford to have the HP-2, but they just haven't got much use between the K1000 and L3000. And like you knowing what or where I could have put that money really tempted me to sell them if the right offer came along. Keeping them wasn't making my enjoyment of music any better or worse. The K1000 absolutely rock with either a warm SS amp or tube amp/preamp.

I'm not going to get one. Thinking about it $4000 is just silly (to me). Plus the K1000/L3000 just work for me, they cover all my music genres and moods. Plus I want a really nice speaker system.

If I was a mod I'd fix it for you friend. Wheres that Rex
