+1 lol.

Some good points made so far. Personally, I would prefer a community where there was only one state-approved headphone amp, manufactured in state-run factories owned by the proletariat. For the people, by the people: and while the streets run red with the blood of the fat capitalist bourgeois pigs, I could enjoy my Socialist Worker's of America Party-approved symphonies on my "Headphone Amplifier One," so named because it is the only (legal) headphone amplifier in existence. Also Jews and Catholics could not use the amplifier. But until my dream of a totalitarian communist state comes true, in all its ethnic cleansing glory, I'll just have to do what we do in a free market capitalist society, and vote with my wallet. If I don't like the fact that an amp manufacturer stiffs tons of angry customers by spending time putting research into what to me is the fucking dumbest looking amp I've ever seen, then I don't have to patronize said amp manufacturer. Also I can get on internet forums and make my opinion known.

welcome to headcase!

The SA-10 is a really exciting player to me. If the 999es conked out today I'd probably pick one of them up.

awesome! i love the wood.

Sure, based on what I've read concerning the two cans' sound signatures, it is kind of ridiculous to try and say one is better then the other, just that one prefers Joe or John's sound signature better. but hell I did it anyway, cause I'm a rebel. one day I'll get banned from here and start my own radical headphone forum. www.head-jack.biz I'm insanely curious about the GS1000, but I'm pretty sure I would hate it. I almost want to hear it, just so I can hate it.

So I'm having one of those moments... been weeks without my RS-1s, just listening to them for the first time since I got them back, MFSL Cream Disraeli Gears, "Sunshine of Your Love"... I have a hard time grasping how it can get any better then this. I'm sure the HP-2 is a great can, but damn man... RS-1s are teh awsome can. And the tubes haven't even had but 5 minutes to warm up.

ack! will do, thanks earl for the head up.

Thanks for the review, I've been trying to decide whether to purchase the KSC75 or the HP-2.

Oh, so does Grado still physically manufacture the phones?

Note that Grado repaired the RS-1s and shipped them back to me before the Alessandros have even shipped. Earlier this week I emailed alessandro and they told me the ms2i was "backordered"... how can an item be backordered from the manufacturer?

woot, rs-1s just showed up at work! made my weekend. can't wait to hear how they sound.

Yes, I noticed that. It is a very good looking amp. Very pretty, IMO.

and they ship in a very pretty case.

lol

sorry jpak, the postjack factor is a no spin zone. *cuts jpak's mic* see jpak is a koolaid drinking secular progressive, and we just catch him and his left wing nutso friends in their lies. bring me a fact to back it up jpak, ONE FACT, and we can talk again on the factor. Foo Fighters, okay? OK... Anyway, got hungry reporting back in, says the W A 5 still looks great, thanks for keeping us posted. and somebody reminded us the 6sn7 is the "campbell's soup" of tubes. I can't confirm this yet, but we have our people on it...

Just in off the wire! the WA5 makes philodox semi-erect in the penis, meanwhile jpak is learning to fly like the foo fighters song b/c the amp inspires him much like the foo fighters song inspires its listeners. aerius doesn't give a shit. it is possible aerius has not actually seen the amp in pictures yet. stay tuned to the postjack factor, after the break geraldo is showing up to weigh in on the W A 5. no spin, fair and balanced!! geraldo!

more reviews! hungry and recstar say "WOW THAT IS ONE SEXY AMP DAMN!!!"

the reviews are in!!! big thumbs up from REK DOG.

What do you think about a $3000 woo amp? http://www.wooaudio.com/products/wa5.html Anyone at the meet listen to it?

But, like DC said, I will own them all eventually. I have 23 right now, and bought all of them for between 8 and 12 bucks a piece. I mean, how awesome is that.

This is one of my favorites: All the Heifetz ones are great. Anything with Fritz Reiner and the CSO. Also check out sa-cd.net to read more reviews: http://www.sa-cd.net/titles/0/296/date/100/1

happy birthday hungrych!!
