K340 Resurrection Fail
Could be that the voice coil is still intact, but has come unglued from the cone, or that the voice coil is simply displaced, so not in the magnet.

Dang, and you with all those shovels at the ready.

Still coming down here, in the 1' range so far.

Deals
I always worried about the durability of my old ER6i, even though they never gave me cause to. Mainly just the thin wires and fairly small body.

The ultimate DIY? A Stax SRM-T2!
Nate, its gonna be close, not sure it will work. The 16.5" part is OK, but it better not be any more than about 10.5" in the other dimension.

Just roll to a dac without (coupling) caps.

Looking good. Holy cow that is a big board, gotta question if that would even fit my flip rack.

Looks nice, but why not rear mount all of the jacks?

What are you driving your K1000 with?
Doesnt everyone know the best sounding amps are perpetually on the brink of letting the smoke loose?

What did you do today?
Found out that I am getting cut down to 10hr/week for January. Dammit I need a new job. Ah well, already knew that. Time to get looking I guess, since the police thing really doesn't seem to be working.

Got mine today, thanks Dave.

Laptop Boot Up Problem
Spinning is no sign of the hdd being ok. Probably best to try Todd's boot CD and get whatever data off it you can, then RMA if possible.

Speed, what really is it?
Ok, I dunno where I got the 1m bit from, but they say it was measured on an IEC baffle.
-
Speed, what really is it?
It sure does, but unless I am very mistaken, that is how Audeze was claiming to measure the CSD of their headphones.
-
Speed, what really is it?
Interesting. Looks like pretty complete measurements. Wish I could read the text though. I wonder how the CSD is measured. I recall Audeze saying they were doing it on a baffle from 1m, and I would expect that an electrostatic diaphragm which is meant to be sealed to the head would lose significant damping measured in this manner.
-
Speed, what really is it?
You have seen CSD plots for electrostatic headphones? The speaker measurements I have seen have generally been worse than comparable dynamic speakers, but I never have seen any for headphones. Do share.

All that polyester must be somehow related to disco, just cant think what else you are planning for that quantity of it. Disco dancing vikings at canjam.

Omega 2 vs K1000 shootout
I think it is just a notch filter, so I wouldnt go playing with it. A notch in the wrong place doesnt sound like something I would care for.

Fuck in snow
Bit of a change, eh Beefy? We had some snow last night, and the prediction was for more, plus ~1.5" of rain/ice, but it just rained a lot. Back roads were a bit of a mess, but nothing bad.

What did you do today?
Agreed. I didnt listen to them as much as I might have liked, but I did enjoy Alex's HP2's at the meet.

What are you driving your K1000 with?
E810F works nice for me, or D3A, or one of a number of other high slope pentodes, triode connected. Heck, you could also have a pentode/triode switch if you want. Check out this page: High Gm driver pentodes

memory foam pillows
I love my memory foam pillow. Dusty, if you dont know, there are specific covers you can buy made for people with allergies which basically completely seal off the pillow/mattress, and can be taken off and washed. I have them, got them a few years ago at the recommendation of the allergist I saw at the time (not seeing any now).
