This place might not be slow for long if Head-Fi continues to look like this:
We apologize for the unexpected downtime. We are at the datacenter now, working hard to get the site back up. The site may be down for most of the day (Sunday, November 11, 2007), but we hope to have it up sooner. -
You know, I didn't try any of the Woo gear.
-
Uploading pictures now...oh, hmm, i definitely haven't seen that! nobody here as a picture of it?
-
If you can stretch your budget to 800ish I think you can get a refurbed Macbook.

I just got home now, Ian won't be home for another 25 minutes or so. We're both wrecked and I'm only typing to keep myself up long enough to drink some much needed water. Great meet, some impressions will be Casino limited. Speaking of which, The Monkey is a worthy candidate for access.Well, I'm not sure how many guys from here made the meet. I couldn't make it since I just had too much crap to get done. I know Nate and Ian went, but IIRC, they were talking staying over and driving back on Sunday, so I don't know if they have access to computer yet. Even if they went home after the meet, they'd getting home right about now.

Abe, I think you'll find if you just ask a clear and complete question folks around here will be very helpful.

Funny you'd say that since we were working on them last night.Reminder for my walnut cups, you guys are getting me excited about these

In my experience the depth of cup plays a huge role. A lot of Larry's pairs use standard depth cups which may make some difference but I wouldn't expect much. I would put stock HF-1s better than any of the SR series but not on par with the RS-2/RS-1.Grawk, do you think the deep cups play a big factor in your HHF-1? They always look a little awkward to me.
Of course you, Jack, have friends that have been known to work with wood and Graods so you have options should you find yourself in possession of a pair of stock HF-1s.

New they were $200 + shipping.
Used stock examples have gone for anywhere from the low $300s to over $400.

In a word, no. The 580 shares the driver with the 600, not the 650. And if they sound virtually identical to you I don't know what to say, they certainly don't to me.HD650, HD580 (I might very well be deaf but the 2 sound virtually identical - also don't Sennheiser use the same driver and 'capsule' parts for both?)

You need to concentrate on listening to more music, I have yet to see the picture in your sig have more than 4 albums in it for a week.Well, its being simmered. I'll toss it on the grill after finals.
-
I choose Class D because I am a _huge_ fan of switching noise, phase shift, and bizarre, complex distortion spectra. Those things really improve my listening experience and I could not go without them.
-
Wow, be pretty cool if I pioneered a smiley. Problem is that it really looses effect at resolutions smaller than 60x60. Of course, this being Head-case there's no reason that we can't have a large format smiley and not limit ourselves to the typical 15x15 format.
-
You're kidding right?
-
I'd hardly call those specs high power, the mini3 puts out about 3x that much into 330ohm. I wonder how low the i-qube's output would be with a load like that?

You know you can order the LTD direct from bluetin.com for ~$300 + shipping, right?Less JPN/VTG, more A900Ti/A950LTD talk, please.
-
With the number of headphones in your collection how does anything get any listening time?I bought the A950LTD when it was released, and sold it soon afterwards because I felt it would never get any listening time with the L3000 around. It is kind of a "mini L3000" in many ways, but it can't match the L3000's refinement.

It's really just something that I'm toying with and probably shouldn't even be considering. I'm certainly not looking to take on another build any time soon, I'm up to my eyeballs in crap as it is. Thanks for the input though and it certainly applies to more than my situation.Question is, without a good amp, why bother, though you (Nate) can build a KGSS for ~$500, or a BH for ~$1100, or so. Oh, I know there are cheaper amp options, like a SRM-T1, or one of the energizers, but that would be my choice.

Bunch of lazy bastards, not shocking at all.that's only a little more than half the guys going.....
go figure.....
Thanks for the effort, man.

Well someone just posted a host of Lambda gear FS on HF, anyone care to make a recommendation for those of us thinking about sampling stats?

Don't care if it's faster since it's fugly.

Yikes, either I didn't take as many pictures as I thought I did or somehow pictures got deleted from my camera??!??!
