Being poor necessitates such measures

I was looking around for something to bling my tubes around the base on the casework and found a nice and cheap way to do it for those little amps like the Starving student and CTH, EHHA and others with wee tubes. Looking around in Lowes hardware stores I found these solid brass Brainerd door viewers: If you unscrew the ends you end up with a pair of brass surrounds. One end fits the CTH and Ehha size tubes and the other fits the Starving student tubes so you'll need to buy two viewers to get a matching pair @ $7 or so each. When added to the case, you get this nice bling surround. They are pretty deep as you can see so you may need to trim them down depending on how your tubes are mounted. It's a great way to add some polish to your build for cheap. the mounting size hole is 1"

Happy birthday, and ignore manaox, here's a cake for you.

Most decently made phones will last decades if treated well. Repairs are usually needed for damage than failure. Whether it's cut cord, broken headband or whatever. Relatively few phones fall apart naturally or fail electrically. Of those, some hi-end magnesium frames on odd Denons and Sonys have proven a bit fragile, AKG elastics give out with age, same with pads and other 'consumables'. Most go on seemingly forever without any problems.

Yeah, the marmots are squirmy little things

Cavalli EHHA amp kit Weeeeeeee!!

Catchy title too!

I'd try it but no 650 here either and never heard the 5000. So, yeah

Happy Birthday Mr G

Hope it was a fun day!

Some switches and standoffs for me wee amp

That's why they invented stair closets

and that's just what he found between the cushions of his sofa! Sennheiser is very generous with their hype machine.

I'm not sure I like the bullet proof shields on it, other than that needs more black and gold.

...with percentages if you don't mind

Threads aren't over until someone mentions Hitler. erm, DOH!!!

what was this thread about again?

I imagine these are being tested and measured by a different benchmark and specific standard than run-o-the-mill phones for domestic use. I'd imagine most phones would read poorly by the same standard unless I'm reading wrong.. not unheard of.

Now, about that $300 dollar USB version you promised me

Nice, and congrats

Because they are high quality and very durable studio engineer phones built for a specific application.

I don't know why people get so pantybunched over their fuckingheadphones, it's not like they mean shit in the grand scheme of things. I like all kinds of shit and don't really hold any brand affiliations. I like what I like no matter who makes it or who else likes or dislikes them. No skin off my nose either way. People are dumb, some more than others.

Bah, Kids!! Happy Birthday Hungrych

Nothing wrong with my 50 year old butt wiggling I'll have you know
