Very nice Deepak, way to make me jealous.

Happy Birthday! Extermicake!

Happy birthday Big Al!

Depending on how it is implemented, sure.

Oh...a wise guy, eh? Why I oughta!

You could easily build a sweet 300b amp with that kind of funding. DIY, be a nice topper to the Tower of Power!

The bass is less because the bass is canceling between the in and out of phase speakers.

By inefficient, do you mean it is a lot of work to make, or actually significantly impacts the volume of the system?

Good luck Naaman, and be safe!

Looks like a Hammond 1550C.

Indeed, that lathe is hot!

Those nose/mustache/glasses disguises would work nicely, methinks.

Some serious win in this thread recently, o2s+new machine shop.

I am not sure what you mean by voiced for headphones. Generally, headphones and speakers like similar things, just in different quantities. Lots of power, flat response, low output impedance, low noise, enough, but not too much gain.

ffffuuuuuuuuuuuuu, sorry to hear that man, and really hoping Jack is unaffected.

With safesearch ON.

Hammond 158Q.

The point of infinite baffle is that the backwave can never interact with the frontwave. In the speaker world, there are people who use a wall of their house as the baffle, with the speaker tightly sealed to a cutout in said wall. Front of the speaker goes into the listening room, back either outside or into some other area of the house.

And since when did an aardvark baguette strike you as haute cuisine?

Infinite baffle = sealing earpads with no ports.

I would think the capacitance of the taket, especially with the transformer box, would swamp cable capacitance effects.

Got to hear these today at NYC, was really underwhelmed. Kinda sounded, I dunno, woolly to me. I don't even know if that is an audio term, but thats what they sounded like. Should have snagged them and listened on a different rig, just had the Beyer and some Headroom amps, and I think some onyko cdp or something. They were in the MOT room though, and I am not too familiar with how most MOT gear sounds, and I didn't care enough to take them outside in the rain to the member room, if I even could have gotten away with doing that. Really, really dug the frame though, so comfy.

We frikkin missed you man. Lame!!!!!!!!!!

That doesn't sound like something most of us would care to do, or be of real benefit. Why would we want limited headphones we may want to become harder and more expensive to purchase? I guess maybe get Stax to give us more new stuff, but they don't seem to care what people on forums (at least in this country) want. Yeah, that sounds fun. What is this 404 mk2 though? I dunno what it was, but I too didn't care for the SR202 either really when we last heard them.

Dan, you figured me out. I actually spent the whole meet wearing a rubber monkey suit, pretending to be Dinny. Alas, no free dacsies at the end of the rainbow, simply more rain, and no rainbow.
