Need speakers for my new amps
You went out of your way to say that this thread was serious... so I thought that maybe you might have gotten SOME amp, even if not a 13k stupidass 300B amp. I'm not gullible, I guess I just expected more.

Where did you get it at Nate?

Ah, billy is a potato... it all makes sense now.

Need speakers for my new amps
I used to work at the queens warehouse in missisauga where they stored all that shit. There was a barred off weapons section too, with a katana right near the edge. Was so tempted to jimmie the thing out of there, but resisted somehow. So, did you get a new speaker amp?

Waitaminnut, those are $13k? Either you stole something very expensive from work, inherited some money, or are full of shit. Which is it?

I'm waiting for the HCT HMS 100 knockoff myself.

Source upgrade?
Yeah, I guess you got me there with the separate sentences. So, you meant that they are high priced yet good... though not necessarily of the same magnitude as Atma-Sphere and Kondo?

Sony PFR-V1 Personal Field Speakers
Are you using it with that boostaroo thing or without?

Weird, so... how much do they suck?

Source upgrade?
Wavelength mentioned in the same sentence as Atma-Sphere and Kondo? Interesting. I'd like to see what KG thinks about the company.

Source upgrade?
That is one good step, I'll give you that... I think it is more relative to what is in them vs. how much they cost. Same reason I'll never buy Empirical Audio. I guess it is a combination of my bullshit meter and my cheapass meter.
-
Source upgrade?
I'll be interested to see how it compares to the Hertsens. I don't know why, but Wavelength has always made my bullshit meter go into overload... I've been wrong before though, and for Mike's sake I hope it is a keeper.

Stax vs. Senn Round 1
"Says the man with the electret" That's electret-dynamic system to you, son! Seriously though, I try not to look at audiophile as the 'dirty' word that some do. Am I an audiophile? Without a doubt. What non audiophile customizes his stereo equipment, uses tubes, spends more than $100 on headphones, etc. I recently showed a picture of my office to a couple coworkers. They both liked the color scheme, and commented on my Wife's Mac (were in IT and support an all PC evironment), but one said "What's that thing with all the little lightbulbs?" and the other said "Nice valve amp!". I bet you can guess which is the audiophile.

Guess what? You own electrostatic headphones. You are an audiophile. Sorry.

The HE60 sounds good
I'm confused, I could have sworn you flat out said they were forward sounding at some point. Must be mixing you up with someone else from the Stax Mafia.

Strange, you are always saying the HE90 is forward sounding [which I haven't noticed when I heard them], but I did notice that the HE60's are very forward.

I prefer to call them 'mini meets' myself.

Well, one of them is old, but the other is sorta cute in a freaky facial piercing sort of way.

No thanks. Fuck JB, this cardas cable is too damn fidgety. I unplugged it by accident when my mp3 player was deep in my bag and somehow my the stupid thing was set back to play on the internal speaker when the cable is yanked. A little embarassing on the bus, but the girls in front of me seemed to like 'Let's Dance', so its all good, I guess.

Lol, more like government workers don't get bonuses. I'm pretty sure those in private industry up here enjoy a bonus every once and a while.
