From Illinois? Yeah, I could see that being a tiring day trip.

Apart from having to visit Glasgow, that sounds alright!

Ah, but these particular 650s came with a custom UPOCCPCPZZTOP cable, guaranteed* to blow through said veil like a hymen on prom night. * Void where prohibited.

Just tell the seller you'll only buy the house if the basement is mold inspected and remediated. Or that you want $20K or whatever off the price to get it done yourself. Worth a shot if you like the rest of the place.

Well, there's no going back. I bought a pair of used HD650s for a friend and, while they were passing through, took the chance to spend the afternoon listening to them side by side with the HD800s in my system. The 800s simply pissed all over them. Despite having lived very happily with both 6X0 series Senns in the past for extended periods -- they now seem uncomfortable, lethargic and muffled to me by comparison. Off you go!

Happy Birthday!

Hey Dinny. I found this a very interesting read over at Computer Audiophile. I don't think the author will mind it being reproduced here. I have simply snipped out all the crosstalk in the thread.

Like I wouldn't have mentioned it if I'd got one! Picture is from Computer Audiophile.

Hoppy Beerthday!

I think you should sue Justin in his personal capacity. Happy to provide the address to your process server. Just send me any BHSE you might eventually seize, OK? Sorry, got nothing.

Then we're cool.

Bronski Beat, and you're laughing?

You're the first person I've come across so far who thinks the 800s sound better cranked up, Larry. Out of interest, what's your source? For myself, they make me want to buy a turntable. Listening to good hi-res needledrops is heaven. Bad CDs, not so much. I would venture to say they spotlight digititus, if it exists on the recording.

Double Dutch rudder?

I'll ask my guy at Julios. He can usually get anything.

I predict these will blow goats.

Brits respect a man with full control of the mother tongue. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2T0Ofr6VYMI Go see "In The Loop", by the way. It's excellent.
