Only 200?

It's back.

Will do. I'll report back once they're ready.

The two 18ga conductors act as another shield I guess since they aren't tied to the Senn plugs, only the 1/4" plug. Again, pretty odd construction but hey I like the way it sounds so I should really stop complaining.
They're not shielding anything, it's just extra bulk to make the cable thicker. The wire costs practically nothing for a length like that, so I suppose it's worth it to be able to charge more for the cable than they would be able to if they left it much thinner.

Ah good, this thread just reminded me that I need to call up Frank and yell at him on Monday.
-
I turn the phones up until the neighbors start complaining, anything else just isn't sufficient.
Coincidentally this is only half as loud as philodox listens.
-
Mine still haven't "warmed up" and I've had them for several months.

Sprtizer was funnier.
Almost as funny as your spelling.

[update Nov 18 2007]: We have made significant progress in the past 24 hours. Please stay tuned.
In other words, Jude took a shower and changed his clothes.

For 1/4" I would definitely recommend Neutrik over Switchcraft.

10W?! At what impedance? Did Stax put a warning in the user manual? I imagine most people have amps with over 10W of power. Last time I checked, not everyone had 300B SETs
I thought you knew better than this, Jonathan.
If you're only drawing say 1W from the amp, it makes no difference whether it's a 10W or 100W amp. That's just the maximum amount of power the amp is rated to output.
If you were to plug a 100W lamp into a 5kW generator, the lamp doesn't explode in a massive fireball. Same idea.

i never had a problem. i must be lucky.
Yeah, but anyone with normally shaped human ears is more likely to have this problem.

They're just as uncomfortable as regular Crados, don't believe the hype.
-
you know, he really likes your signature...
\I can't even begin to count the number of times I've clicked on that link. You'd think I'd remember it by now.
-
Can I have it then?
-
I would probably get banned if I invited AdamCalifornia over here, wouldn't I?
-
Yeah, he was saying that just to get unwarranted attention to his threads about it, which he made several of.
-
Well I know first hand that he doesn't believe in that policy, considering in the past he's used information on other websites to send me some very nasty messages threatening to ban me.
-
Am I correct to deduce that midrange is not the H2's strong suit?
-
Dvse, but with a system like that, he wouldn't be able to slap people with the censor and ban sticks when they say something unfriendly to Head-Fi or its sponsors.

I've played the K340 at around 100dB without it sounding strained or any more coloured than it normally sounds anyways. It does have some weird colourations and soundstage issues inherent to the design of the headphones, but if anything they normally seem more noticeable at lower volumes to me.

I have most of my CDs ripped onto the computer as FLACs, which gets periodically synced to an external harddrive that is normally kept disconnected. Since I rarely use the original CDs (just keep them on the media shelves), I figure I'm pretty well covered as far as backups are concerned. Assuming all else being equal in the hardware chain, I don't believe in any inherent fidelity difference playing back from the original CD, a burned CD, or from the harddrive.

It's one of the Japanese-only releases. I'll know how it is when I get it... I bought it for $6 from a guy in Japan.
-
The last few weeks have been pretty slow for me for any new music purchases, this is all I have to show for it.

How long do your K340's take to warm-up ?

Oh you're a fine one to talk about people having absurd amps.
At least mine is cute, so it can get in closer before it goes for the kill.
