Sorry I cant help convert the unwashed masses, but this meet is at the same time as the Florida meet.

Yup. Sony v6, Sazerac 18, DEQ, and two bottles of Diet Mt. Dew.

Penny and Giles RF15. Though if you really only need the range of -40 to -85dB, methinks you have way too much gain in your rig, and would be better served by first rectifying that.

Doesnt discount me at all. The whole meet seemed pretty split about which they preferred. Everything about this hobby really is down to personal preference, I have just stated mine here. You are all free to disagree with that. I also have no idea what rigs other people were using, and I didnt try the two of them on a wide range of rigs either. I know there was someone walking around comparing the two out of an imod-portable amp.

I am allergic to cats.

I am keeping the pair you heard.

Should be some difference, as you dont get the leather-skin seal.

He didnt say, and I didnt ask. He also did say they would be offering upgrade cables, and laughed and agreed when he saw me roll my eyes. Not fit exactly, no way to attach them with the stock method, but they are almost exactly the right size. I will try them pressure fit. Probably would have to use double sticky tape to affix them, unless one got creative. The headband looked like a little more finished version of the one we have seen pics of. Dunno if it is final. You wouldnt like them, at least in this form. Maybe more open pads and more damping would fix it, but I dunno. They had partial velour pads, leather side/velour against the head, but same complaint. Maybe a bit less, but there was probably an hour between when I listened to both of them, so I wouldnt really want to try and say.

Indeed, you are not wrong.

Mmm, lemme know when it is done.

Nope, gotta get around to trying the O2 pads. Dont really have any other pads which seem suitable, though I wonder if AKG pads would work, as the mounting looks very similar.

Yup. Those are sockets for the optional input phase splitter, as apparently it cant work with a SE source otherwise. It was a great meet, well worth the 8 hours in the car to hang out with the gang.

I never liked the YH-100, either my own pair or NoNoNoNoNoNo's modded pair. I dunno, I REALLY like the HE-5, actually agreed to buy it today. Didnt try a Millett with the Audez'e, but my normal Max was a bit bass light with the 25ohm HE-5. Easily could be a function of the 470uf output caps, so if I were going to try it, I would probably go for at least 1000uf there. I much prefer my l'espressivo.

Quad of NOS NIB Mullard E810F.

I actually was quite surprised by how much I preferred the HE-5. I dunno, I just found the LCD2 to be muddy and congested, too bassy, and hot, heavy, and uncomfortable to wear. There were two pairs there, one with solid leather pads, and another with leather/velour hybrids, kinda like what the HE90 does. Alex mentioned it isnt done yet, about a month off or so I think, and that the cable was going to be removable and connect by mini-xlr (balance-able, not like some of the AKGs).

And seems they finally figured it out over at the monitor. Irish priest kidnapped in Philippines released | csmonitor.com

More to the point, what is the benefit of seeking the opinions of others, once one has already purchased all of the equipment they are going to for a while. Seems a bit backwards, buying and then asking.

Great. Not another word about them until then.

This is going to keep me amused for the rest of the day. Just lucky I wasnt actively drinking soda when I read it.

What does the math say about how many seconds after 8am Tuesday morning it will be until you can afford JH13? Congrats though Brent. Hopefully you can make it turn into even more.

I will ask them at the meet tomorrow, but soon is all I have heard thus far.

Have a great one, get many dacsies!

Warning, does not compute!

Lower distortion too, since less excursion for a given spl. Of course, what you are asking about is a line array, and there is a lot of available reading material on that subject.
