  1. Now that I've spent some good 20 hours comparing the modded SR-007A to my old Mk1 I can say the are very close though not quite the same. The modded phone is slightly more forward and there is a slight remnant of the midrange "honk". The combination of these two makes voices seem slightly tilted upwards and certain notes are "off" but without the benefit of a direct comparison I'm not sure I would have noticed it. Today is a rather warm day for Iceland (hovering around 20
  2. I know about those but the other feature was really growing on me. Ohh well, you can't have everything.
  3. Btw. Is there a feature in the vB so that we can quote posts from inside the "reply to thread" screen as was possible on the old software?
  4. Which equals to a lot of hurt if those wires manage to find a way to ground through you... That was a particularly bad day at the "office".
  5. So you need some massive 40kW heater elements?? The shipping might be a bit excessive though... I'll be scrapping a rotary cutting knife soon so one large AC motor and a DC stepper motor but if you need something special I can ask the local repair guys who have a lot of strange parts.
  6. I seems that there is an automatic subscription with the treads I've posted in. I chose in the options to get an instant notice of subscribed threads and I've had two emails about new posts in this thread though I didn't subscribe to it...
  7. Works fine from the HDD so just save it temporarily to the hard drive
  8. We will have to find some appropriate form of punishment...
  9. ...or he has a clone? That would explain a lot of things...
  10. Nobody takes the internet as seriously as we do and definitely not "old" Europe. I think the the phone companies are fast approaching 99% 3G coverage of the island and some 15-20km out to sea, like we need to check the email on top of a glacier or out on sea . Alex has been posting on the APL forum though so he might be doing it telepathically...
  11. That sucks big time. I still haven't heard back from him since my issues in April and most likely never will...
  12. The forks (which hold the earpieces to on the arc) break a lot on the Lambdas and so to the arcs so just don't sit on them. The drivers are pretty robust and dust is not much of an issue but some form of a dust cover is a good idea.
  13. Thanks for the list not that I need any more sources or headphones after my most recent shopping spree...
  14. Massive line sources tend to make believers out of just about anybody...
  15. Great impressions but plug those ports and the bass is even better and the midrange is the best you can get with no "shout" on the vocals... There is no other headphone I would rather use for rock though some of the classic 60's stuff sounds sublime on the SR-3/SRA-3S combo.

    slow forum

    Quoting the above video... "Holy shit!!!"
  17. Did the original Naim CDS use S1 chips?
  18. That's very cool! I know that there is a set in my future once I can find a place that's big enough with the ceiling height to match.
  19. If they are anything short of a triple stacked Quad ESL or Sound Lab Majestic's then no...
  20. Ouch!!! That's a lot for some chips. Btw. Have you heard anything from Alex about your player?
  21. If anybody wants a DAC with S2 chips look no further...
  22. I think that the D5000 mod only sounds like the R10 in markl's own idiotic mind. The fact that he thinks Rudi's amps are good speaks volumes... You can force them to squeal like every other ESP but it's not normal. The fart is a pretty silly name for it...
  23. The Marantz CD-7 is on my hitlist... I think I'll stick with my inferior chips for now...
  24. Get a new amp and report back... ...
  25. You might be over damping the driver or putting too much pressure on the top of it and thus more tension on the diaphragm.
