  1. Yeah it would be fantastic if there more impressions regarding the Black Diamond in general. I've done quite a bit of research and can only find a handful of posts that could be considered as such. Even the ECP thread over yonder is devoid of any real solid impressions on the BD, let alone ones comparing it with the DSHA-1 and L-2. At this point I'm definitely open to the BD. I've had one gentleman contact me considering selling his L-2 but nothing has been finalized yet. I'm also eyeballing the Ragnarok assuming it actually gets released for sale to the public anytime soon. I thought I had read somewhere that Doug was down to his last BD unit for sale, however I read that almost a month ago and his ordering page is still up and the BD can be added to the shopping cart. Just FYI whatever I buy I'll be pairing with the HD800, hence why I've been so interested in the L-2 as of late.
  2. Those definitely help quite a bit Jimmy. Thank you.
  3. Thanks for the input. That's what I figured. I could only find one for sale thread over on the other forum and that was from 2013.
  4. Ok I guess that was poorly worded. What price have these two been selling for on the used market in the last two years?
  5. What would be a fair current market value for a DSHA-1 and/or L-2? I tried researching this but I can't seem to find their original MSRP although I did see some mention of a sale Doug had at one point.
  6. I'm interested in knowing as well, along with an estimated price if it's available. Would this amp be considered a step up from the DSHA-1 and L-2?
  7. Van Winkle Family Reserve Rye. This year's release is outstanding. Far superior to the 15 year bourbon.
  8. Sippin on some Very Very Old Fitzgerald from 65.
  9. 2010 Stagg followed by 2007 WLW followed by PHC 10
  10. Greene relegated to second string?! For one lousy game? Not a chance. I refuse to believe you're that gullible. No one on waivers has a chance of putting up numbers anywhere close to what Greene will do this season.
  11. That was certainly a strange looking lop sided trade IMO. Who is Tracy Blankenship and why would he/she trade away Shonn Greene, a first string RB, for a sub-par WR and TE, especially when that individual already has a bench full of WR? Not to mention that Grant is now out for the season and Maroney just got traded to the Broncos to play second or third string there. Exactly who is going to be Tracy's second RB now? That trade made absolutely no sense.
  12. I love when you have to work late and you miss the draft. My team is complete and total dog shit. What the fuck is the autodraft doing drafting me two back up kickers?
  13. I'm good with any weeknight after 8pm that works for everyone else.
  14. Somehow I had overlooked this thread. I'm sorry I missed the festivities.

    I received mine this afternoon. They're pretty nice. Here is my graph for the records.

    These recent comments from this thread were just too funny not to post here. This guy has such damaged hearing. LCD-2: Pics of my setup! review to come. - Head-Fi.org Community "The mighty LCD-2s - lets just say I don't think the Stax Omega II's no matter how exotically amped can approach a modest LCD2 setup"
  17. Thanks for stepping up and joining Aura and thank you as well VPI for being willing to extend the player limit. I'm looking forward to it.
  18. Could we please expand the draft to 12 players? I'd love to get in on this.
  19. Perhaps you may be new to headphones in general, I'm really not sure, but this releasing of four figure headphones is certainly not a new trend. It probably just seems this way to you because so many companies released flagship offerings around the same time, after having a drought of sorts for a few years in a row.

    Audeze LCD-2

    I agree. I haven't read anything in the the last six months that has made my eyes roll more than all of the hype from kwkarth.
  21. Is the description of the 404LE in the for sale thread over at HF accurate, or simply a bunch of bullshit in order to hype and sell it? Is it really that good? FS: STAX 404 Limited Edition, 404LE 35th Anniversary - Head-Fi: Covering Headphones, Earphones and Portable Audio There is not much to say about these...they are a lightyear ahead of the 404 Signature in terms of sonics and cosmetics and a perfect companion to the O2. The have better bass extension, slam, and dynamics than any O2, have better detail up top when compared to an O2 Mk1 yet are smoother, and have a near perfect midrange presentation when compared to an O2 Mk2. Not to mention that they easily surpassed my HE60's in all regards.
  22. I've thought about ordering many times since they first popped on the radar but I just can't bring myself to do it. I've never owned IEMs and the whole idea around inserting something that far in to my ear, coupled with cleaning issues and worrying about wax buildup getting in to the output area, just diverts my mind from the order process every time. I'm still amazed by how positive the overall impressions have been, especially from those that we all know are clearly experienced. But for some reason I still can't bring myself to do it. All the accounts of multiple refits and knowing that they're custom and a done deal doesn't help either. If only the had a program where they sent out demo pairs or had local kiosks demonstrating them, then I may just be able to push myself over the edge on an order. Hearing is believing though. I just can't buy something without sampling it unless I can either A) return it or sell it at a minimal loss. Hopefully I'll get a chance to hear a demo pair at a meet in the near future. Until then I'll remain quite content with the HD800.
