Wasn't paying too much attention to treble extension when I listened. I think I heard it on Doug's prototype loooooooooong amp, and was busy playing around with the output impedance switch. That was fun. I definitely want to try the MS-2i and MS-Pro.

That's exactly what makes it impressive for a John Grado, it doesn't have huge treble spikes or a 10dB bass hump. Or both.

Yes, please.

I heard a pair at CJ as well and they are indeed impressive, for a John Grado. Probably the best John Grado I've heard. Still not worth owning, for me, especially since I couldn't get it to sit right on my ears. I think the one I tried had bowls.

Not fried, but I tried homemade butter mints for the first time and they are amazing.

Claudio Abbado + Vienna Phil playing Mahler 4 Slowly making my way through all the vinyl. First LP I buy after this will be Mahler 5. And 9. And 1 and 2. Or probably just all of them.

It's really hard for headphones to sound better than Triports, so it's expected that the B&W sounds worse. That, and the shitty waffle pads.

It would probably help them sound more airy, yeah.

Are 16 yo girls attracted to you?

Perhaps there's a certain thread you might want to post in?

Spent pretty much the whole day at the wedding, even though I only played for like 40 minutes total, including the last minute rehearsal right before. It was a friend's wedding, so it's cool. My payment was a whopping $25 iTunes gift card, which is completely useless to me because I refuse to use iTunes (it would be a different matter if I owned an iPod). Dusty, next time I see you, it's yours.

There must be something to that rig (Sony CDP + GS-1) since I really liked the HD800 with it. Didn't get to try any other headphones with it. Was the CDP the XA-5400ES? I don't remember.

Near identical to what?

No comment. Other than 'my bad'.

Ooh, I hope you're going to be posting pics of the build as you go through with it. Just got my "new" refurb Dell laptop that is a massive, slow POS, but is better than the worse POS I have now. Vostro 1520 from a Vostro 1400. It's 120 better. Or just 120 bigger.

It's probably Colin's since I know his was measured. I covered up one of the vents with my fingers on swt61's pair of TPs like I did Colin's before he plugged one up on his and it sounded a lot better. The bottom ones are the five measurements that Tyll took, each with a slightly different positioning on the dummy head.

Where's AdamCalifornia when you need him?

Well, iirc Colin's pair looked a fair amount better, but he retuned the damping beforehand. And is it me or is the LCD2 down 20dB at just before 15kHz?

^ I think it'd look cooler if he had a red bow tie on. Humoresque: Isaac Stern Plays Great Violin Favorites (Vinyl) Can't find the album art online of my particular copy.

Graffman + NY Phil - Rach 2 and ROATOP (Vinyl) Oh my.

You wouldn't happen to have anyone in mind, would you? Maybe someone who uh, likes a certain AKG headphone that is in current production? And who also has a "girlfriend"?

I'm not, I have to play for someone's wedding on Saturday and hopefully schedule a lesson. And also catch up on work from last weekend.
