  1. Get in touch with Hirsch...he tube rolled that amp a lot. I think the best tubes are not what you'd expect...an inexpensive Japanese brand...what were they called? Raytheon, maybe.... yeah Raytheon brand 6cg7. Can't say that I've used EH though.
  2. Have you tried not using your penis? Me too.
  3. I did have that problem when I first installed 2.0 but it seems to be fine now. Every now and then there's a lag though. 2.1 has been seeded to developers so hopefully a fix is forthcoming.
  4. I have all my tunes as ALAC and I use iTunes with airport expresses and iPod Touch as remote. It's working out well.

  6. Yeah it is, especially for longer lasting product lines like the iMac and Mac Pro.

    NetFlix "WatchNow"

    Sorry to bump an older thread. Has anyone used the Netflix Roku player for "Watch It Now" content? The Netflix Player by Roku | Watch Over 12,000 Netflix Titles Instantly on your TV
  10. "A wealthy scoundrel seduced and betrayed me." No seriously. I bought an iPod and was tooling around iPodLounge (now iLounge) and came across a link to Tangentsoft. I was more excited about building a little amp in a mint tin than the headphones really. But once I built that amp, I needed something to use with it. I always wanted to get into high end audio, but I figured it would be a little later in life when I had a house and could dedicate money/space to a speaker setup. But headphones offer an experience I can't be without. So I'm hooked.
  11. Now that's a neat looking mockup.
  12. Apple refurbs page has 32gb Touches at $429.
  13. iResist 1.0 resistor calculator...too cool and FREE!
  14. I'd love to hear how it goes...I've always wanted one of those, but the price has stopped me. We have a cat and a dog as well.
  15. Can you add a place for speaker taps?
  16. Essentially the author goes over some of the challenges that you face measuring headphones (specifically the FR). He talks about getting accurate readings from the headphones on a dummy head and how headphone position alters the measurement from one reading to another. Then he goes on to talk about the various ways you can go about applying corrections to the measured curves based on Free field or diffuse field response. He talks about the work of Thiele and how the headphone industry doesn't seem to have a consensus about which is better, FF or DF. Then there's a bit with a dog. He then goes on to show the FF and DF corrections for 4 headphones and how the graphs differ and so forth. It's all very gripping. Truly neat read. It should show up on Stereophile website in a few months. It's in the August issue.
  17. I read it as well, pretty interesting article.
  18. I too have purchased refurbs with absolutely no problems.... one laptop and one iPod. Couldn't tell them from a new one and they performed just fine.
  19. SignalSuite Haven't bought it or used it, but it seems like something folks like us might like?
  20. What spritzer said. They're fun....rolled off treble, but an image unlike any other e-stat out there. Definitely something to hear if you can. You'll most likely get the $800 back if you decide to sell later....they don't pop up that often.
  21. Well, It's been awhile since I used them, but I seem to recall them not fitting well, I think I still have some at home, I can check tonight.
  22. I'm not associated with the seller: AudiogoN ForSale: Stax Electrostatic Sigma Professional Sigma Pros for sale on A'gon
