Very Nice Ryan. You realize this means that it has to show up at Chiunifi-Redux! I have relatively recently become a big fan of Craig and I need to hear my HP-1's on the Moth and Zana Deux.

What If I Were Looking For a Complementary HP for The 750..?
morphsci replied to Contrastique's topic in Headphones
OK. Yeah I had to "bend" mine but its a fine line between vice-like and loose on these. They have gotten a little more comfortable over time, but I would not rank them in the top 10 for comfort. -

Was that with the stock cord? Switching out to the stock HD-650 IMO gives it a less "in-your-face" presentation and definitely cleans up some treble harshness. However, soundstage is what it is with this phone regardless of cable. -

I'm telling you, give the Senn HD-25-1-II a try (See post 19). DEW EEET!! -
motorcyclists that get caught in my front grill ... selfish, inconsiderate fuckers.

Well for out and about I would also suggest the Senn HD-25-1MkII. Just make sure and switch out the original steel headphone cable with a stock HD-650 cable (and turn the earpieces upside down). Here are a pair for sale -
Cartridge Recommendation for Old Dual DD TT
morphsci replied to morphsci's topic in Home Source Components
So is there a reason to choose the AT440MLa over the AT440ML, other than the ML is no longer in production? The stated specs of the ML appear superior to the MLa? -

Thanks. Lots of good recommendations. I will track them down and try to make some decision. Right now the AT looks very interesting. -
Cartridge Recommendation for Old Dual DD TT
morphsci replied to morphsci's topic in Home Source Components
Its the standard tonearm that came on the system. Straight 8.75" tubular tonearm with a detachable cartridge holder. Four-point gimbal suspension with adjustable counter-balance, tonearm height and anti-skating. Will accept any cartridge with a mass of 1 - 10 g. Unless you owned one (and had the manual at hand) there would be no reason to know any of that (unless you were practicing for an audiophile cocktail party). -
I am bringing my old Dual CS-721 (vintage 1976) out of retirement. I had some work done on it around 2002 and it works great. The cartridge on the other hand needs some help. It currently has an old Ortofon LM30 cartridge. A replacement stylus costs about the same as a new cartridge of comparable quality. Therefore, I am looking at alternative cartridges for this table. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, especially from those using older direct drive turntables

Sounds like a title to me.

I think stupid and inane posts are da bomb.

Well small world. I was there from 74 - 81 (Forestry). Was only back about 3 times from 81 - 05. Now I live 45 miles south, go figure.

I did not know you went to UI. When were you there? I also remember the smell and it is still there (at least it was last week).

Thank dog, I was starting to feel old. Welcome and sorry about your thin and wrinkled skin.

And there's also a pair of MS-Pro's about 45 miles south if you want to give them an audition

Do the upper end EAR phono stages have subsonic filters?

Yeah, I was really bummed when Logitech bought Slimdevices. But I have to hand it to them, they actually seem to be leaving the creative side alone and certainly Slimdevices has b rought new products to market much more quickly under the Logitech umbrella. I'm hoping they can do the same for UE, maybe then I can afford a UE custom.

Happy birthday to the man that knew about headphone audiophilia before there were headphones
