Sounds good. Now I just need to find a nice tube amp for speakers to run with it.
-
Has there been any work on this lately? I really want to do this one.
-
Thanks Tran. That webpage with all the information is just what I needed.
-
What is the power supply for the Squarewave? Nothing complicated I suppose. Looks like a nice little "cheap" amp.
-
I missed this completely. I've been concentrating on other things for the past month. I guess I have to wait until next time for a Krell board. As mentioned above, is there any information anywher about the Square Wave?
-
^^ My priorities have changed lately and I have not been listening with headphones much at all.
-
^^^ That Sucks!!! I could see me ending up in a bad accident if that ever happened.

After reading what pigmode wrote, I realized that I needed to step back and think about it. That and my wife made the comment that I was hesitant enough with the decision that she did not think it was exactly what I was looking for. It was damn close but just not it. I'm looking for a comfortable saddle next week while on vacation so that I can enjoy the riding a little more when I get back.
-
As much as it pained me to do so, I decided not to get the Firefly. I really wanted it but after multiple measurements and checking several fit calculators it was not as close as I had originally thought. I'm going to keep riding the Orbea and work more on losing the weight right now. I've told my wife that what I really want is a Kirk that is made just for me. It will cost a little more but I will get exactly what I want.
-
Very cool looking case Tran. I have decided to sell my T2 boards if anyone is interested. They will be listed in the sale forum shortly.
-
It looks blue from the pics. I will not do anything until I can get a good look in person.
-
Brent, it does not come with the headset which is fine with me. I would prefer something other than red. Vicki, remind me again about that motto. I know that I heard "sorry about your wallet" a lot when I joined head-fi and it was true. To be honest I have spent way more on fountain pens in the past couple of years than anything else. I do have a rather nce collection though.
-
After talking with the wife she gave me the okay to get this. What do you guys think? I measured my current bike and compared the numbers. They are almost the same except this has a taller head tube and less drop. That is exactly what I need right now. I cut some wood blocks and held them against the bars to simulate the difference that other day and it was almost perfect. It will take a little time to do the full build up but that would be okay with me.
-
I have noticed as I get older my tastes are changing. I figured you guys would understand. Pick your poison is definitely right. Yesterday I spent almost $5K to sign up for an IT(CEH) boot camp during my vacation. I would have never done that a couple of years ago. Priorities change.
-
This being a headphone forum, I thought I would ask if it is acceptable to sell my primary rig, Beta22 and LCD2, to fund a bike frame/fork purchase. There are three frames fro sale on paceline that I would love to have. A Speedvagon, Kirk, and Firefly all with measurements that are damn near perfect for me. I would only be able to pick one of the three which would be hard enough to do.
-
That does not sound like much fun at all Vicki.
-
Looks nice Birgir. I like that it can be unbalanced or balanced in. That makes source choice a lot easier. The fact that parts are actually available is a plus too.
-
Nice ride Brent. Looks like fun. I have not loaded my last couple of rides but here is one of my usual routes. The wind was about normal for this time of year here at 17mph. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/299031774 One day I will figure out how to post the screenshot like Nate does.
-
The more I read about Dave Kirk, the more I want one of his bikes. Just sounds like a good guy. I am now just waiting for my new wheels. I decided to go with Brent's friend Troy for the build. He has come up with a cool, at least I think so, solution to the weight the wheels have to carry. I will post pics when they get here next week.
-
I'm with raffy, heat over wind any day. Of coarse, living here I get both at the same time. Yesterday it was steady 20-25mph winds. I did not get in any riding this past week. I'm going to try and make up for it this week though.
-
I really wish I lived in the states close to any of you guys. The rides you guys are posting about sound like a lot of fun. I have not riden all week due to work and getting things in order for my wife's return from a 3 week business trip. Also the wind here has been terrible. 18-20 steady with gusts to 29-30 all day every day last week. It will be like this for the next couple of weeks here. Makes for a fun boat ride to and from work though.
-
Tube, Portable, and Stax are three words that I nvever thought would be in the same sentence. Can't wait to see this one.
-
^^^Are you referring to me? I would love to have it but the 59 tt is a deal breaker for me and I actually like the yellow. My Orbea has a 52 st and 57 tt. I've got a 70mm stem on it now and am comfortable. I'm playing the saddle switch game right now. I'm going to get measured while on vacation next month. Hopefully that will help.
-
Nate definitely has first dibs. I just went out and measured my frame and I think that 59 is just a little bigger than what I would like. I'm riding a 57 right now. Beautiful bike none the less. It should make someone very happy.
-
If Nate's not interested I might be. Depends on price.
