TTL Converter
It looks like you have the TTL input before the amplification stage, though I guess it will just go to the rails and act as a buffer? Also, is it any real benefit to do the bypassing of the DC blocking caps to the extent that you are? What are you actually doing with TTL signals?

Amp/DAC recommendation for D2000 & DT990
I think that amp would not match too well with the Denon's 25ohm impedance. Of course, I would stick with the above recommendations to sell your existing gear and go for Stax.

The Headcase Stax thread
SRD4 has no bias supply, so unless you add one, it can just run the electrets.

The Headcase Stax thread
The "keyway" is the same as is on your normal bias Lambda, so as long as that fits, you will be good. The o2 plugs and such only get wider when you get about 13mm back from the start of the plastic, presumably where the end of the pins in the plug are and the ultra wide ribbon connects. Until that point, its almost exactly the same as what you have. Except, you know, the center pin.

New, Cheap Dynalo...
Woot, thats major win right there! Now for duals!

Opinions Sought (remolding of IEMs)
Definitely a good thing. Two or three refits from Unique Melody, even assuming they are free, and you could double the cost of going custom just on shipping. Hmm, definitely something to ponder.

Opinions Sought (remolding of IEMs)
That is good news. Do you have any idea if they work with you like JH seems to in the event of a poor fit?

Pfft, headphones can be worn on a bike. Anyone asks, space age earmuffs. It's cold out there, donchaknow?

The ultimate DIY? A Stax SRM-T2!
Ooh, very nice! I presume that since the tension on the pins seems to be inherent to their design, there is no need to worry about cold flow in the teflon?

Beyer T1
Ah, but if I can lead either Dusty or Chris into temptation, I can come mooch a listen. DEW EET!

Beyer T1
Nope. I would actually love to hear one myself.

The Headcase Stax thread
I presume the scratchy sound stops after you short the pins out? If it doesnt, then I have no clue what could be going on, but the drivers do hold bias for a good while.

Your recent music purchases
- Fang's new orthos shipping
About 1.62w, current limited. More into the 25ohm impedance of the HE5, voltage limited.- Fang's new orthos shipping
He has said he is working on a higher level version, as well as a cheaper version.- New, Cheap Dynalo...
Yeah, real shame that Linear Systems never seemed to get the P-channel equivalent up. IIRC, they had been predicting Q4 2008, which obviously didnt happen. Dont know if they are having fab/yield issues, or just decided it wasnt worth the money to pursue.- Post the last thing you bought!
I supposed connecting a spare PC to the TV isnt an option?- Arlington, VA Meet
I will try, but no guarantees.- Post the last thing you bought!
K1000 FTW!- Post the last thing you bought!
Indeed. I will try and make it, assuming I am still in the area then.- Post the last thing you bought!
Ah cool. Yeah, I definitely would like to hear that some time.- Post the last thing you bought!
That was running off the N1000 adapter, I never tried it with the Stax amp.- Post the last thing you bought!
I bought a pair a while back which had some serious issues including funny sounds and very inconsistent output. I dont know if it was just the cable or something more dire, but I ended up returning it to the seller.- Post the last thing you bought!
Do yours not work either? - Fang's new orthos shipping
