!!!!!

Your comments are entertaining, truthful and downright "Herculean" .. thanks for that, man. And re: these online forums? No worries .. such doesn't even exist .. makes for fun on occasion, though. Fun dialogue. ...

Red Sparrows - At the Soundless Dawn ... ... Former Neurosis members. So good. ...

LOL!! Reminds me of the 404LE's I just spent way too much money on.

Alice in Chains - SAP ... ...

"don't be a douche" ..

Again. What Santa said. I can live with that ... hell yeah ...

Indeed.

fuck yeah. (though the definitions are lost on me) .. but still. Fuck yeah.

One of my female heroes: The Duke Spirit - Neptune ... .. The band is pretty rad .. (not to mention the front) ... ... ... but that's just me.

That was the old me!!! I did my time in solitary, okay? One whole feckin week (cut down from the initially promised two, for good behavior, I guess?) ... it was deserved and it is now behind me. Man, what the fuck does a convict have to do to make way in the free world these days? Jeezus. And I'm proud to say that I'm now, mostly, this thread not withstanding, rehabilitated. Mostly, anyway ... (I did get kicked out of High School ... also a Peter Murphy concert once ... Chase Bank too, where I was a software designer ... then, hmmmm ... oh yeah, overclock.net threatened to kick me out for using the word "ass" too many times ... and ...) ;-) (sorry, I would have posted my initial inquiry to other more whorish sites but you fuckers are way, WAY more fun)_ ( and way smarter, too) ,... Bear with me (and the Scotch ... ) ... ;-)

Sufjan Stevens - The BQE Soundtrack ...

Santa was indeed correct ... backed out as too lateral of a move ... Gonna focus on Scotch from here on out...

There's a pair of really nice looking SR-404LE's for sale at another site. $700.00 ... I got the itch to pull the trigger just because; fatter cable, swanker looks, leather pads ... and supposedly pretty great on the Lambda scale (I've read the main threads here at Hcase re: such)... But already having the 307's (my secondary cans) and some Koss ESP950's (my main, most loved cans) ... just not sure if I'd regret a $700 purchase for a minimal improvement over either of my current cans (especially the ESP950's which I consider quite dramatically better than my 307's... Really pretty, though, that's for sure. Also not sure if $700 used is fair or not ...

I might try them from an Amazon source that allows returns should I not like them. And I've already got the Gilmore Lite, which I'm also assuming would work fine with the HE500's ...

Puddles - covering the Lorde song, "Royals" ... "A seven foot tall clown with a golden voice..." LOL ... by far better than Lorde ... and also the best shit I've seen all day: ...

I'm going to read a bit about that headphone (Paradox) as I know nothing about it. I'm curious about the HE-500's as well ... thought have never heard them and know nobody who has them. They look awful huge and heavy, though ...

Ditto. I really enjoyed the 303's when I had them; in fact, the guy I sold them too about six years ago recently contacted me to see if I wanted borrow them back for a bit. So we're going to do that here in the next week ... will spend a good deal of time comparing to the 307's ...

Of course I'm not serious. It's a computer form for chrissake. one would be clinically ill to vest any thing "serious" in it (other than fun dialogue, that is) But thanks for that comment ... your mention of materials used, other than just the driver, are interesting. The stats perplex me, though ... in a good way ... not only do they sound great, but they also pique my curiosity.

Goddmanit. I was serious with that question there for a second... And horses don't have feathers, either.

Turtles.

That's what I thought.

I've been pondering this question... If electrostatic cans are mostly just a thin filament of material .. then how do various cans have different sound signatures? Is there a crossover circuit in the headphone? Why do my Koss 950's sound so much different than my Stax 307's? What is the variable that affects sound? Curious...

Yeah ... hilarious and inane as it may truly be ... I really do want that. ;-) (I tried to "like" your post but the forum won't let me)

I consider headphone species to be more different than amp species. And much more influential, regarding sound,.... And, of course I won't be wearing all the headphones together and at the same time (you fucking dunce) .. And as counterpoint to my stax cans? Hmm ... Beyer T1's or Grado GS1000's both come to mind ... Both of which are way less "flat" sounding. Both of which, too, are outside of my price range. But they are good examples of what I am looking for. And they are both nice counterpoint to the sort of mid centric, flat sounding Stax cans that I have. Spendy, though ... PS500's are looking good ...
