So if the HFI-780 and D2000 are trashed, what's left?
Every post by you in this thread can be summed up as "you must hear ultrasones with you own ears, go hear ultrasones", nevermind that most of us don't care to hear them. Some of us have tried them and hated them, others have better things to do with their time than listen to headphones which are not very well liked by well-respected members. And that's not even getting into your piss-poor attitude and communication skills. Why the fuck should we listen to someone comes across as a 14 year-old jackass?

Then why the fuck are you on a personal crusade to push Ultrasones on everyone?

Your recent music purchases
Ok, update now that I've cleaned the records, these LPs are in really good shape, no scratches or scuffs, very few pops and I'm pretty sure a trip through one of those TNT vacuum machines will get rid of them.

I'm still cleaning the records and haven't had a chance to listen to them yet.

ZYX Bloom, best bargain MC under $5,000?
Or step up and buy an Airy 2.

Concert dilemma -- please help!
Always see the greats before they pass on, always. Once they leave this world, you'll never see them again. Jazz concert, no contest.

NY meet impressions
To me they absolutely require tubes and a turntable rig, preferably with a warm fat sounding cartridge to give it more fullness and punch. Even with a Capitole or Simaudio Andromeda and some of the best amps money can't buy, they don't quite do it for me. I just like the RS-1 & PS-1 sound a lot more.

NY meet impressions
I wouldn't. The HP-2 is great on a technical level, but the presentation leaves me wanting. It's like a flawless supermodel who won't get intimate or sleep with you. The RS-1 is like a cute GF who fucks you silly every night till you can't pee straight. She may not be perfect, but she's a hell of a lot more satisfying.

Any hockey fans?
I'd say the problem is our fans are too good, no matter how much the Leafs suck the ACC is always sold out so there's no incentive for the owners & management to improve the team. The Leafs could finish dead last for 5 years and the ACC will still be sold out every single night. If Toronto fans actually stopped going to the games, then management will actually start thinking about building a good team to get the fans back. Of course, there's the other problem of the Leafs being majority owned by the Ontario Teachers Pension Plan, those dumbasses don't know a goddamn thing about hockey.

Any hockey fans?
It's even worse in Toronto, and our team completely sucks ass. The only reason I can even get tickets to a game is because my GF's friend's brother plays for the Leafs, so once in a while they can pass us a couple extra friends & family tickets. I love watching hockey, but not the Leafs since they skate like slugs and all they do is dump & chase the puck since they have so few skill players. Watching say, Ottawa & Montreal go at it is a whole different story, pure end to end action, brilliant passes and moves along with great goals. It's a much more exciting & enjoyable game.

Way to go Head-Fi
It's probably my 2nd or 3rd favourite, behind Royal Spa. They give great massages.
-
Speakers are awesome.
It's used, on the 'gon. If you don't like it, you just flip it for the cost of shipping.
-
?22 as a preamp?
Or bump up the gain of the amp itself.

Ultrasone HFI-780
Let me make this clear for you. You're not welcome here. Go back to Head-fi or wherever you hang out until your balls drop or you grow a brain, whichever comes first. Run along now.

Ultrasone HFI-780
You just don't get it do you? You come in here, make a big scene, make "jokes" that aren't funny, and you expect to be accepted. What kind of social retard are you?

That's what I said to your mom when she offered me a $5 blowjob. I have standards, man.

MS-Pro, RS-1, SA5000, AD2000, K601?
RS-1 is clearly the new FOTM.

Put options, lots of put options. I, for one, welcome a financial sector meltdown.

Lathes are fun!
Is it just me or does it kinda look like a sex toy?

I believe this qualifies as the understatement of the year.

Squished down bowls, I might get flats at some point but I'm happy with the sound as it is so it'll probably stay this way for quite some time.

The SA5000 was the worst headphone I've ever heard until I had the trauma of hearing a DT880. The tone is crap, it can't do decays in the midrange or bass, the treble goes "SSSSZZZZSZSZSZSS" forever, and the resolution is only slightly better than Senn 580. The only good thing about it is that it's comfortable, though I imagine the mesh headband will pick up a bunch of funk from your head over time. The RS-1 rules and I'm not saying that because I own one, I've liked it since the first time I heard it something like 5 years ago. If you want "flat & neutral", you can forget about it. The RS-1 just makes things sound right, especially in the midrange. Detail, resolution, speed is all far above my Senn 580, makes it sound like a cheap toy in comparison, beats out my K340 pretty easily as well. The soundstage is typical Grado, moderately sized, upfront, but with very complete and seamless, there are no blobs or holes. I've found the imaging and portrayal of 3D space to be better than my K340 which was the previous best, the K340 tends to beam some sounds in a cone while the RS-1 lets the sound radiate naturally into 3D space. I haven't heard the others yet, I'd imagine the MS-Pro to be similar to the RS-1, the others, who knows?
