It sure is purdy... [ATTACH=CONFIG]3003[/ATTACH]

a) That should be just fine for 99% of the amps out there since the RCA input is configured just like that. The only oddity is something like the Woo WES which can't perform the phase splitting necessary for this to work. Either transformers or a phase splitting circuitry is needed then. Such a small difference should have no effect what so ever and in my experience you only run into trouble at 750-800V with the Pro bias Lambdas. The SR-007 doesn't mind that though but I couldn't hear any benefits from pushing the voltage like that.

The amp might even invert phase on its own (i.e. some are wired up the wrong way around) so this isn't a big deal.

Good luck Marc. For me it was making moar cakes and I nearly cut a finger off delivering a massive wedding cake yesterday. I'm leaving in a few minutes to deliver a large batch to the Reykjav

I do doubt it very much. The SED EL34 is said to have similar coatings yet there are no wild claims about needing 300 hours before they can be measured properly. I'm always vary of claims made by some importer which has to defend an excessive markup...

Fuck no, not enough rape involved with the pillaging.

The pictures above, the first two are of the first volcano which was tiny compared to what we are dealing with now (which is relatively small as well). The last picture is of the current eruption or rather one of the rivers which is constantly flooding now.

The old ad for that amp (which has been up for years) explained it better but basically it is just a simple tube amp with a transformer driving the different headphones.

If an iceage would hit then we'd be screwed. It was bad enough suffering through the "mini" iceage from about 1350-1850... Being up here does have some perks even if the stark beauty is sometimes overlooked by us, the natives.

Indeed.

Where they rape u...

Yes indeed, much like in 1816 (the year of no summer) but the end result is more CO2 in the atmosphere. Good that we are such a "green" country then...

No, not really. An eruption like this releases a lot of CO2 plus other sulfur based substances.

Things are certainly getting bad since there are now directives for everybody outdoors to wear masks due to the ash. \ There are also indicators that two other volcano's might open up soon which could cause devastation to farming on both sides of the Atlantic. Not good... not good at all.

I'm getting my parts directly from Germany and I'll ask him if Senn has any intention to stop supporting the HE60. It would decimate the used market since these are very fragile cans and won't last.

We are quite safe over here but a friend of the family lives just beneath the volcano. He's been evacuated and will not be able to return until the flooding has stopped. There is a massive flood on its way down from the mountains now, the second today and we can only hope the levies will hold or the damage could be quite bad. The water and electric supply for the Vestmann islands is situated not far from there and so is the spot where we are building a new ferry harbor for the islands which could all be washed away. The islands have seen their own fair share of volcanic activity... While the volcanic activity has caused little damage here it is bad news indeed for Norway. With a south-western wind today all the ash has been blown towards Norway and could ground all flights there tomorrow and for even longer. It damages the aircraft engines so nobody can fly near the stuff. It also means all flights from here to Norway, Sweden, Denmark are all canceled until further notice. Why are you giving me such ideas... I wonder if could make that the ultimate DIY project nr.3.

Hey, that's our "White house" here in Iceland! Cool pic...

It's half way around the country so there shouldn't be any problems. Now if the volcano's closer to us would open up then we'd be in trouble.

I also placed a large order for HE60 parts and haven't heard of any issues with sourcing them for me. I know for a fact that Senn will be keeping the Orpheus running indefinitely and they have huge stores of spare parts for every model.

Nugget Audio B22 would work...

Call and ask for part number 50814.

Now as the eruption had stopped, another one opens up this morning underneath the glacier only a few km from the old spot. This one could go badly as the flooding has already started but everybody has been evacuated out of the area.

Blah, smaller then me...
