Wow, something else to look forward to. And your name appears in my pp record with increasing frequency, including one more today.

That's what I was thinking. The HT3 seems to be about $100 more than a used Stratos and the guy may be willing to deal since it's been listed for 32 days. It also appears to have some decent upgrades and it 3 years old. I probably should contact Klaus to try to find out how up to date it is with the idea of buying one new from him. I also may see if he has any deals available on a pair of monos directly from him.

This is going to require some research. Things move around here so fast I can't keep track. I will review paypal records and post. I put out a challenge to my good friend Jp Numbers to post as well. I think I have him beat but it could be close. I still have any item or two to add before the end of the year.

I think both of these are still available, unless Hop picked up the 3 channel amp. AudiogoN ForSale: Odyssey Stratos Dual Mono AudiogoN ForSale: Odyssey Stratos Ht3 Cap/Face Upgrades I'm leaning towards the Dual Mono. It would be about another $100 to change the blue faceplate to black or silver. I have no use for the 3rd channel in the HT3 but it would give me the option of picking up a stratos and having them converted for monoblock use. I still would have my eye on picking up a Belles 150A Reference or a McCormack DNA .1 with mods but these are both pricier. Any thoughts?

I better be on that list because I want to see the pic that beat that one out.

Forget the amp, what a great pic of Lilly!

I'm not even waiting for Hanukah.

And one is headed your way. Should be there 12/17.

I don't care about what the rest of them say about you, you're okay in my book.

Yeah, he rebuilt one and now he will do the other so it should be fine but I'm done. I'm going to try to blow them out for $600.

Yup, TAD. I like the sound but this is the third time I'm sending them back. Paul will fix them but I think I am moving on. I'm going to sell and have Paul ship them for me. He's going to give the buyer a 60 day warranty.

I'll let the flash of my Glock lead the way. You should feel proud, the beta is the only headphone related gear that will survive the purge. If you don't get it out by then, no problem. It was purchased in '08. It's going to be my temporary speaker amp since I packed up the Hibachis and I hope to never see them again.

I need a good kick every now and again. I can't think of better people to be doing the kicking. Nate, I will hunt you down like a dog.

It shocks me every time I read this because I can't think of another headphone that does those things better than the Jade. I think CJ and/or HighLife commented after trying the Jade that they had never heard a headphone with as much of a soundstage. Not meant as a shot or anything, I certainly respect your opinion, deepak.

JJ Grey & Mofro in two weeks. Dirty Dozen Brass Band coming up as well.

I was considering selling my headphone gear, except the beta and upgrading to upgrade my speaker rig.

Everyone is a comedian. Alright, no new headphone gear in '09.

No new gear in '09!

Nate, that sucks. Have you heard anything in terms of when they will have the power up?

The Cary sounds nothing like the RWA stuff. The NuForce with ice modules may be similar. The Cary sounds nice but there is a slight hum that I can't get rid of no matter what I do. I tried a cheater and nothing so it's going back to Oz. I'm pretty intrigued by the Odyssey amps.

Thanks. I'm also looking at the Belles 150A Reference as a possibility.

Congrats on the amp and pre. Now you have me interested. I may try one out while I wait for a McCormack DNA .1 Rev A or B shows up on Audiogon. I checked out their website and I didn't see the Candela. I did find it here: Odyssey Audio Hong Kong - Candela Tube Hybrid Preamp

I was just making a comment on the population of NH versus Broward County.

I think the NY meet should come to you.
