HD800? Another rumor?
This has a bunch of good info on equal loundness issues: Equal-loudness contour - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In the end for most equalizations there are certainly "optimum" volumes.

What are you listening to Part Two
Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machine It is one of those days at work, less than 3 weeks as assistant manager and massive fuckups from both above (huge budget shortfall) and below (stupid shit). Yay!

Tour de France
Absolutely and totally obsessed with it. I "watch" nearly every stage on the velonews race tracker then go home and watch the recording of the stages too.

HD800? Another rumor?
Does yours look like this one? Mine does and that's not flat that's a matter of scaling. That said +/- 3dB isn't bad. What annoys me is that they don't give you their target diffuse field curve just the deviation. The geek in me wants to know.

Sonic Studio 302 (aka Metric Halo ULN-2)
Nice writeup JP#s I'm glad to see that more people are looking towards commercial DACs. In my opinion they absolutely destroy Audiophile DACs for value and performance (and usually add ADC as well).

HD800? Another rumor?
The graph for my pair I'm sending back is much the same. +5 was my zero. The 100-12k I think is the IEC standard for equalization. clarification: I really don't care about the squeak but because others do and I have a pair that do squeak it ruins resale (which I may or may not use depending on how my KGSS sounds). Headroom hooked me up. Great service as usual.

The I'd Rather Be Happy than Fit thread
I get up at 5 am for my personal trainer 2x a week and work out 4 or 5 of the other days. Mostly cycling related (either on an acutal bike or on a trainer). I'm still a fat bastard but that will change over time. I wish I had my dad's metabolism not my mom's. I look at a cheeseburger and I gain 2 lbs. Hoping to ride a century in the fall.

The Headcase Stax thread
I'm very interested since analytical is what I look for. I saw some tests on lambda pros and they were nutty flat to the diffuse field equalization. I would say the Omegas are overcooking the bass a bit anyway. Too rich for my blood at this point unless I can find a pair to borrow for my electrostatic vs dynamic showdown. Spritzer: Congrats!

The Headcase Stax thread
What says HC of the 4070? I head it at CJ and I was really rather impressed. I'm thinking that they may be more neutral than the O2 and I'm not loving the O2's sound leakage. What's the ruling in these parts?
