With the ED-5 there was no amp pairing as it uses the same chassis as the SRD-6 I think... it's been a while.
-
I'm sure they sold a lot more of 007A's so none of this makes any sense.
-
Yeah, what I've heard from dealers all around the world, the X9000 sells and the 007's sell... the rest not so much. This was not a good idea unless they plan on releasing a Mk3.
-
That certainly includes the Mk2 so we are all basically fucked.

Well it happened. Yesterday, the only talk on the news was that the people of Grindavík would be able to celebrate Christmas in their own homes and the police were being criticized for almost arresting one person who wanted to sleep in the town and reopen his hotel.
With almost no warning, a rather large fissure opened up some 3km north east of the town and the lava flow is running to the west, away from the town but directly towards the main road and the Blue Lagoon. There has been erected a protective barrier all around the Blue Lagoon (mostly though around the geothermal power plant it's right next to) and they are now plugging the gap where the road pass through the barrier.
The bad news is this is a rather larger eruption than the last fews and the lava flow is heading towards the hot water pipe leading from the power plant. That carries all the hot water used for heating the homes south west of Reykjavík, for some 40000 people. If that is consumed by the lava... there is no plan B except to use electricity to heat the homes or at least, keep them from freezing up. Yeah, this is bad...

Unplug the headphone when they noise is present and don't touch the pins... is the noise still there? It does sound a lot like the drivers are damaged in the headphones.

The ED-1 is quite rare and even more so the ED-1 Signature. There was also the ED-5 but I've never had one of those, they seem to just have been sold in Germany as the SR-5N and NB were so popular there.

Nothing new I've seen, they have all use Stax circuit boards. His ED-1 clone does use his own PCB's but the circuit is clearly a clone.

It's made by Pawel Acoustics:

Inside those were real Stax amps, those I've seen were just rehoused SRM-313's. He makes a copy of the Stax ED-1 to this day.
-
Yeah... that part annoyed me no end.
He did tell her off for using a brush to clean the L300's which would probably have killed them in the end.
Also, has anybody else noticed the T8000 chassis has been changed since the first units? Much more ventilation on the new ones. Wonder why that was changed...

Turn on the subtitles and translate to English.

I'd love to see that, or just anybody trying to build a closed electrostatic. It's not easy as simply slapping a cover on it like the Koss ESP-900 was dreadful.
-
Excellent.
-
Yes, they have an identical headband it's not as strong as the 007 arcs which can be bent back and forth.

It is plastic covering a metal core

Well things aren't good but it's just a waiting game for now. One town has been evacuated, has suffered a lot of damage and people were given 5-7 minutes to go into their homes and save what they could. If the town is wiped out, that is worst case scenario along with the Blue Lagoon and geo thermal powerplant just to the north of it. If it opens up in the sea just outside the town, it is also pretty bad as Keflavik airport is very close by so no flights in or out of Iceland... perhaps the whole of the northern Atlantic will shut down for a while at least.
Let's just hope this thing moves and opens up somewhere in the wilderness where it won't do any damage. This is about 30 minutes away from me so yeah... pretty close.

I've put Mk2 forks on a Mk1 but the pressure has never bothered me. You can bend the arc a bit on these but don't take it too far.

Nope, I'm keeping it
Gotta love how bloody random all of this is.

Most SR-5N's were sold with SRD-6's so I'm sure this was the intended setup. There is no way to do the EQ properly at speaker level so this makes the most sense.
