What sort of F1 did you guys have? A DIY one or the one built by Pass Labs?

Congrats, I think the gold faceplates look really tacky. Silver suits the amps much better. Do you know if Peter would be willing to do a black one?

redleader is just such a cool name that I signed up with it as my dupe account. Oh shi...

Jeez man 909 I respect your posts at Headfi and here, you were one of the sensible members. WTF??

Post pics!!

I've heard Ray's and Mikhail's R10. Ray's sounded a lot better, iirc a 2002 model.

I didn't find any faults with the B52 either. It sounded really good with Ray's later model R10 as well, I'm just not really a big fan of the R10. I think a direct comparison with a Supra-XLR vs B52 would be a very interesting shootout. IIRC the Supra-XLR is around $3000 base, but the B52 primary function is as a preamp not a headphone amp correct?

Accepted everyone. I'm going home for the night, if for some reason the "member approval" setting doesn't work (ie regular members can't let other applicants in) I'll change the settings tomorrow.

Head-Case ? Group at Last.fm The group is set to member approval, so once you apply any current member will be able to accept you. last.fm basically tracks what you listen to after you download the plugin for foobar2000, Winamp or iTunes. It then creates a weekly listened to top artists, and overall top artists. If you apply to the group the fastest way to get accepted- reply to this thread.

I've decided to get a HD650 to contrast the K1000. But it will be run single ended and more for a bed-fi/ transportable setup.

Oh I was also going to use this in a computer setup. I was going to use the line out from my TBAAM, but thinking about a USB DAC. Going to be a part of a bed-fi or pseudo transportable rig that I can take with me when I travel.

Cool, I thing I'm going to pick one up to use with a HD650 Do you think it will help with making the HD650 a little "less dark"?

Hehe IEMs don't need amps. They need better sources.

That is one hella shitty amp alright. The only "amp" that made the ipod headphone out sound better than it did. It's sad to see he has around 7000 sales

I'm skeptical this change will be for the better.

Do you...touch yourself at night

Grab an M-Audio Audiophile USB off ebay.

Thats my audio best buy as well. $200 for an awesome sounding Grado. 60 GB iPod I got used just when Apple announced the new ones another good buy, it gets a lot of use. Altec Lansing iM716 IEMs, I prefer them to the Ety ER4p. TheSloth gave me an awesome deal on the K1000, but not really a great buy since I'm going broke building a system around it. But I love them.

That guy charges an arm and a leg for his shit. Maybe he'll take a hint and lower his prices rather than bumping a thread a few times then creating the same thread again a few weeks later.

edit: the entire thread has some good info because they had 2 people listening and switching back and forth. But the thread was mainly for Lavry vs Transporter. (aahhhh why is there limited time for edits) No kidding it pretty much sucks since Dan Lavry himself shot down the idea of a remote for the DA10

I think he's just trying to say the DACs are very similar...I don't think that hurts his credibility

Reply to my PM! I've been dieing to buy those CDs you told me about

The modded Lite DAC-AH (Pacific Valve) is liked at Headfi. IIRC $220 new

Someone on the Slim Devices forum that did a direct comparison of DA10 vs DAC3 for anyone that cares. Seeing how both have preamp capabilities the DAC3 is looking really overpriced right now.

My SinglePower plans are temporarily on hold. I found an amazing deal on a poweramp for my K1000 so I bought that. I think I'm going to put together an RA-1 clone and then order the SinglePower in January.
