  1. K340 I know I paid slightly over $200 for these, but they can be had for less, and these are remarkable headphones, at least when powered by the Dynahi! Very alive, and rich, and musical. This can has made me very interested in the higher echelon of electrostats.
  2. Chekhonte, the article said that the percentage of vinyl sales went up while the percentage of CD sales continues to go down, which means that there were still many more CDs sold then vinyl. Still, it shows the vinyl market is growing. As for hi-rez, DVD-A is dead, and SACD is dead outside of classical. I predict Best Buy will stop carrying CDs almost altogether in 3-5 years. Already now you can only find new releases and greatest hits albums.
  3. cool, I didn't know Modwright was doing the transporter, thats a good move on his part.
  4. maybe not RS-1 fast.
  5. Welcome to head-case!
  6. suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupa trose!!! !
  7. The K340 is much faster then the HD650, and its midrange is richer and more alive.
  8. new motto?
  9. no, I have the vinyl! but even so I've never listened to it.
  10. yup, my first time. A post on SH led me to the Deceiver box set, and browsing the store led me to the other stuff. also just ordered the two Genesis Archives box sets, the few albums I don't own yet on CD (Nursery Cryme, We Can't Dance, Trespass), and some more Phil Collins.
  11. King Crimson - The Great Deceiver 1973-1974 The ProjeKcts Box Set And some King Crimson shirts.
  12. dang, now you've got me intrigued about this setup. high end headphone classical goodness.
  13. undelete me immediately!
  14. of course, one man's loud is another man's quiet is another man's earsplitting, so its silly for me to speak in these terms.
  15. So I really enjoyed the K340 last night. I didn't listen to it nearly as loud as previous nights, and the overall result was much more pleasant and balanced. I made the same volume mistake with the W5000, trying to crank it to get bass impact.

    slow forum

    that is awesome. i especially love the use of simple dramatic piano music in the second cautionary tale. Here, this one is how I wish all music could be: [ame=http://youtube.com/watch?v=lp_PIjc2ga4]http://youtube.com/watch?v=lp_PIjc2ga4[/ame] I first saw that one in a gum or coke commercial or something.

    Anyone ever heard these cheap Maggies they sell factory direct? 60 day return, $550.
  18. haha. Actually when I saw it I was thinking "I could just have him ship it straight to sacdmods..."
  19. but you can't get them in black in japan! the color is not available! http://www.pricejapan.com/front/e_good_info.php?code=42&category=10 I've never heard the 007, in fact I've never heard a proper electrostat. The closest I've heard to a stat is a K340. I like the K340 though. If the stat is handling the highs, I like the way it does them.
  20. don't you fools know I already saw that thing? that was before I dropped two bills on new music.
  21. ed says $1999. still $3500 total with the KGSS.
  22. true. if I accumulate the good recordings, the equipment will follow.
  23. some dimarzio m-paths, and a slew of MFSL cds and SACDs (mccoy tyner, coleman hawkins, megadeth, zappa, allman bros., little feat). also two bill evans sacds. if I keep buying music like this I'll never get a new source.
