Ba-dum-ching!

Very nicely done. The front panel of the amp looks so clean when you can move the power switch to your PSU box. The two jack look (a la T2) is really nice. Also gogo Team Silver!

Happy Birthday, buddy!

Tried making a few posts in the LCD3 thread over on the "dark side." What a mistake. I'm sorry I bothered. Anti-intellectualism reigns supreme over there. It reminds me of the the "Tea Party" mentality. Complex things are scary to the simple minded.

It was in my case. I bought one before I knew any better. I'm still trying to unload the thing. It's been an expensive lesson, but one I'm not going to repeat any time soon.

Happy Birthday to you, Sir. I have you (and your rantings over at head-fi) to thank (blame?) for the 009s sitting on my desk right now.

Beautiful job, Spritzer. I applaud the choice of silver. What does it say in the lower left corner?

Very nice. Front page right now on NYT as well.

Looks fantastic with the front panel. Great job, Greg. Can't wait to hear it for myself.

Saw the article yesterday! Congrats! Move the beats solo review to your front page temporarily?

I just went looking for the HE90 measurements as well. Were they ever publicly posted?

A friend recommended this... fantastic!

As far as understanding the measurements, If memory serves me correctly I believe Tyll posted some primers on his measurement techniques back when he first started up inner-fidelity. I bet with a little searching you'll have no trouble finding them. Once you read them, it helps to start going through his reviews and try to see if you can match up his subjective impressions with the objective measurements. Once you've looked at enough of Tyll's reviews you start to get a feel for how the measurements influence his subjective impressions. Eventually you'll be able to look at the measurements and intuitively guess how the headphones are going to sound. Tyll can comment here, but in reading his reviews I can't really remember any occasion where his impressions haven't been borne by the measurements. As far as what conclusions I draw, I know I hear things somewhat similarly to Tyll so between the measurements and his subjective impressions I feel like I can get a pretty good idea for how the headphone is going to sound relative to the gear I've had and heard.

What are you talking about? Have you seen Tyll's measurements from his "world-class" shootout? The frequency and square wave responses sure as heck seem to do a good enough job of explaining the "significant difference in the sound of the bass between the LCD-2 and the SR-009" to me.

^ Great post. Couldn't agree more with what you've said and the points you made.

And.... how does it sound?

Great job, Greg. Sounds like you are getting close to having them make a little music.

Anyone got a pair of HE90 or HE60 to send in? I'd love to see how they stand up to the stats Tyll's already measured.

^ Amen

Sounds like something Brian Eno threw in the trash.

ORLY? You mean besides yourself and the money-bags ESLs over on Head-Fi? /kidding

Jeez, just what the trolls in the LCD-2 thread over there needed. I sure would hate to have just plunked down on a "rev 2" only to have this come out a few weeks later.

Holy Moly! Tyll's been busy: http://www.innerfide...-404-and-sr-003

As for my 009s, is there any reason you need to keep them around? I don't mind letting you hold on to them if there is a need.
