music matters vinyl. I guess I've had this for close to a year and just found it sitting there unopened

Very nice I like the look of them

Parasound JC-2 uses an RK27 and costs $4000, that isn't acceptable IMO. DIY FTW for preamps.

Happy birthday

Since creating this thread I've been able to hear the 1.7 in two lengthy auditions. I have to say with more critical listening a couple of things started to really bother me. There is a particular "whiteness" in the 8 KHz and higher region that gave voices an unnatural tone. The imaging also seemed more floaty than normal for Maggies. On one audition we were rotating in the 1.6 and MMG. I actually preferred both of them to the 1.7 (ranked 1.6 > MMG > 1.7). I was really hoping to like them more than the 1.6 since I was still eligible for a full value trade in on my MMGs, but I can't get credit for the 1.6 since they are discontinued I think I'm just going to look for Sound Labs after I move.

Disc Doctor vinyl fluid 1 gallon. My DIY concoctions just aren't as good. I have been good this BF, so far the only thing I've bought as tempting as some of the online deals were gotta keep the spending in control

Nice Is it mainly for comfort or does it improve the sound as well, and do they now isolate like traditional IEMs?

Have a good one!

Staxolences stretch, the first time I have heard this happening with any SR-007

I really do like the new remaster, but the lack of dynamics really bothers me. I'm doing a shootout now on the Maggies, and at ~ 1:12 when Head Like a Hole goes from the "quieter" part to loud its virtually non existent on the remaster. On the TVT I nearly lunged for my volume control to turn it down quickly.

Yeah Arthur's review stirred up controversy and made Lenco prices shoot up as well. It is pretty impressive that he thought the Nantais L75 was better than his Forsell.

No definitely not brick walled, but does have a significant amount of compression compared to the original. Also it might just be peak limited and may not go into clipping. I don't really get the waveform dusty posted. Here is one that might be a bit more clear. Remaster top, original CD bottom (Head Like a Hole)

I was disappointed by how much less dynamic the remaster sounded. There is little dynamic contrast between soft and loud. Otherwise I agree the sound is an improvement for the better and I will probably get the vinyl if less compression is used.

Nate are you going to use a wheel or controller?

Kerry if you (or anyone else) wants it removed it can be done

I thought these things were a joke to stall woot offs

I had a friend listen to the Zus at RMAF and simply said he would be interested to see their measurements. The 22L are really good and Justin said he wasn't too thrilled with the Omen in chat. Thus, my conclusion

I will be really surprised if you like the Omens more than the Quads

Because when Cutler isn't throwing picks he is getting sacked

Selectings from the Heifetz Original Jacket Collection (11 cd version), though nearly all these performances are in the Classic Records 45 rpm road case, too lazy to spin vinyl atm. I am salivating for the 103 CD version coming out in December

Ehh MusicDirect had a killer "sale" last year- free PS Audio PowerPort (~ $80) with $200 purchase. I will still be suckered into buying some of the Everest Classic Records plus some of the Oistrakh titles I've been eyeing on vinyl. They go straight to spam unless it's an order confirmation.

If any of you chaps hear of any Black Friday deals for ElusiveDisc, MusicDirect or AcousticSounds please do post

Nate I was biting my nails every time Vick threw a pass to Maclin. Also epic fail 102 bench points for me. All in all good Sunday with Oakland D-man laying out Roethlesberger

Zu is releasing a $40k speaker. That is a bizarre price jump from their next cheapest
