I went to a meet a couple of weeks ago, and listened to the HD650s with a bottlehead crack(no C4S mod) fed by a ModWright transporter with cheap Chinese tubes and small MacBook. Best I ever heard the senns, and I've owned the 650s before. Freaky how the " veil " was lifted.

Something like this flexible french curve tool ? Steve has gotta have many good tricks to deal with this situation, and know what tools to use.

You've got a job with the firm forever, but you take a small pay cut, and move to... Kalamazoo?

Really hope you enjoy it Ric.

fIf you don't like it Justin, I will take it off your hands, or trade for whatever. Don't care if it works or not.

I'm first in line for the "brown bag" wine tasting.

The phase could be corrected at the outputs, but I'm with Pars, I don't see why the need for the extra wiring and butchering. And it looks like one of the diodes is missing, unless there is yet another angle to be seen.

Provided there is not a serious problem with the pcb layout, one would have to be deaf not to notice the out of whack soundstage that would result from one channel being out of phase.

You're right Al. It doesn't look good from any angle. Sloppy mess for a dollar part. One more thing. What in the sam hell is going on with the input of the left channel here? No 1N914 diodes? Crossed wires from the 389(bypassing said diodes actually)?

I beg to differ ...if it's like my board, then the part should have been inserted pin for pin without crossing anything, like you have indicated. The physical body of the part is oriented correctly. Perhaps someone else could look at the positive pin on the rectifier bridge. It kinda looks a little stressed, perhaps. Maybe we could have a looksy at the parts that this regulator feeds, on the amp board.

I would have to agree. As long as there is money to be made, things won't change much. With all the coal/oil reserves, it's doubtful we will see a significant change in our lifetime. It would be something to see us move beyond using fire. Some interesting facts about the economics of nuclear power. It's kinda retarded how cheap nuclear is.

There are no other land based options where I live, yet. Everyone I know with DSL(mostly apartment dwellers in or near the city) can smoke me.

My bad Ari. I didn't click on the link to the other K&K PP amp in your second post. The CCS on the outputs was what I was talking about. Is that amp in your second post (post #3), is that what the Raven is?

Happy Birthday Fitz.

Al, sorry to hear about your wife. Todd and I were talking at the meet, about how messed up it has gotten for teachers lately. His wife is also a teacher, and it doesn't look good from any angle. The students are the ones who will ultimately pay the price. Nate. I don't know what to say. I remember you talking about surprising Kristopher with the raffle money over a cold brew. Like you, I cannot imagine.

^This^ Have a great year.

Have a good one Craig.

Indeed very sad news. diyA Hi-Rez Highway

I used the Dynamite at about 3 oclock for the loaners. Since I was last in line, he gave me the opportunity to purchase them. I wish I had now.

Gotta listen to a ModWright Transporter > crack/speedball > HD650 combo yesterday. Never heard the 650s sound that good.

I get no new content when clicked from reading pm's or conversations. Perhaps it is weird from other places on the forum. It always works from the home page or any other thread.

wow, love the bottle rocket pic a lot

Happy Birthday! See ya next Saturday!

Walmart has a rollback on chips ahoy. The Reeces ones are good.
