  1. I wanna use LEMO connectors on my next phone just cos they look cool
  2. I think dusty means all the reviewers will be figuratively gushing over the 800, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want an ex review set
  3. Now there's bravery. I hope they don't suck.
  4. Damnation, I wish all those Senn fanboys would fuck off the boards while I'm trying to read my ortho threads. The server's too busy... with Sennheisers.
  5. That doggy needs some underpants, or a thong, something..... maybe just longer fur
  6. I'd assume the HD 700 will be the economy model seeing as how there's a huge price gap in the range now just waiting to be filled. I don't think it'll be released until later to capitalize on the 800.
  7. I can't recall what amps I heard the 701 with at a meet but it still sounded meh to me. Not necessarily pure bad, certainly not fun or exciting though, just bland... and then there's that lumpy headband.
  8. The Cake Daleks will accept this title until we have conquered this world then we will decide titles!
  9. At first of course I considered drugs, then I stupidly decided to trade for an amp.
  10. Yeah, I just tried to reply to an ortho thread and suddenly the page flickered and all my typing was gone DOH!! I'll wait until things calm down over there before attempting again. WOOHOO!!! terminate title FTW! YAY!!
  11. Not any more, I'm down to one set now and the 800 would need to be something really special for me to let these go
  12. The price is certainly sobering. I'd need a really good long listen before even thinking about committing that amount of cash, especially as I'm getting such awesome results from homebrewing. I guess a lot of it has ultimately to do with musicality. I have a number of phones which may well be technically better with more details and all that balls, but my orthos are just so sweet and musical even a $1400 phone would have trouble toppling them for my prefs. I hope I get a chance to listen to a set one day. I don't generally like current Senns and I hope this is a big enough departure from the 5/6xx series to be of interest.
  13. Heh, if nothing else the 800 has certainly generated a lot of traffic. I wonder how the sales will go once it quiets down and most realize they can't afford it anyway. Still, it's a pretty good reaction to something so expensive. Maybe there is hope for the high end market after all.
  14. You have a glass head? No wonder the faceplant broke all your teeth out. Next time try to have your head made from Pyrex, much more durable.
  15. Is that fucking schweet or what! I thought you guys knew.
  16. Very nice indeed. I'd love to get into bigger projects but my weeny workshop is only big enough for headphone cups Great work and looking forward to impressions. I thought your car install was awesome as well. You're a talented guy.
  17. What kind of price would you be looking at? I don't even know which model you have. Jus' wunderin'
  18. Good, and yes, comfort should never be overlooked
  19. Nice! I've yet to own a tube amp though I keep promising to make a Starving Student one of these days whenever I get some free time, as a small living room amp.
  20. they do that just be annoying to modders. So, the latest mods that happened way, way too late last night was to replace the standard pads with the oversize Omega 1 pads and SR-X pad inside as another circum-supra. Extremely comfy now but a little bulkier. I think I may add some padding to the headband later as well, just to go completely overboard
  21. Dammit, they said everyone uses glue these days. They also told me the ability to grip on the front and back of my hand was an upgrade.
  22. Even though he's been written off, I vote Reks for the best faceplant with accompanying pics of damage. Best shovelwork and best basement aptitude.
  23. Surgery? They just superglued them back on. The wonders of modern medicine
  24. I popped into the lacal pawn shop and found a nice variable speed Dremel for $10, pretty nice and has already paid for itself
