  1. Yep, I like her. Do you know Alice Russell? If not give her a listen too.
  2. Tyll, I think it'd be interesting measuring the HD800 with the back grill covered. I think the change in the measured performance has more relation to that than for the sound from the 650 adding on. I guess there will be some differences from covering it with some foam, paper or try to completely seal it. What I don't think has any relation is the balanced/SE think which was suggested on the other site.
  3. You sir killed that thread
  4. Whoa, full size CONGRATULATIONS!!!
  5. Good luck, best wishes
  6. Rest in peace Ernest. He was one of my favorite actors since childhood.
  7. Happy belated Birthday, Mike. I wish it was an awesome day, and it's a great year to come
  8. Woah, really late to this one. I wish you had a great one, mate
  9. Happy Birthday Greg
  10. It worked, thanks Brent
  11. It isn't working either
  12. Blocked by college humor, not sure if based on location or a general ban.
  13. Grease on the lenses? Any of the lens coatings deteriorated? It looks more like haze a la Hamilton than overexposure
  14. Sorry for the pandemonium Carl, take care of the injured
  15. It's a really wonderful picture
  16. The problem with the K1000 is not the driver material or the surroundings, but the adhesive they used to hold the membrane in place. Picaudio posted some pics elsewhere from a driver which was failing. I guess the adhesive losing its properties is just a matter of time, which probably can be worsened by poor caring, adverse climate, etc. AFAIK the Grados in general don't have the same deterioration problems of other headphones.
  17. Not the funniest, but still an intelligently spent day. Good luck with the mcat and Happy belated Bday
  18. Leonardo, the K1000 are dying stuff like the R10 and some other vintage headphones. If you've seen pics of the drivers, you'll know what I mean. It could be yours have too deteriorated drivers, hence they sound a bit different, darker and more muffled. In any case I'd take the HP-2, R10, PS-1, even HD800 over the K1000 any time.
  19. Happy Birthday!!!
  20. Best wishes Larry. Stay safe, keep your family safe and forget about mostly everything else. Good luck with those winds.
  21. Happy Birthday!!!!
  22. Relax and enjoy "il dolce far niente", it's the best treatment for your problem
  23. Come on Leonardo, we need you to follow the thread, this is breaking the good spirits.
  24. I think Brazilian maids are the cleverest on Earth Edit: Besides they're quite likely the hottest too
  25. Happy Birthday!!!
