Ahmed Abdul Malik - Jazz Sounds of Africa It's quite funny that the disc cover has a typo on Ahmed's name

Very bad news indeed, Al I hope you find someone close who can fix it, though considering how Mikhail built those amps, maybe rebuilding it were a more correct term. Do you have the circuit schematics and other info that the technician might need? Good luck

Happy Bday mate, have a great one!!!!

Yep. I joined when you had no downloads limit for a quite low fee. Then they changed to the plans system with limited downloads, so I canceled my subscription, but a couple of years later, I decided to join again. They billed me USD9.99 for 40 tracks/month until they started the European branch, then the fee changed to 9.22 euros (dollar wasn't as weak at that time). That's been my fee for a few years, they've tried to convince me to change to other plans, but all them are way more expensive, so I've been enduring. I suppose they're considering my initial joining date, when the deal was so irresistible, to calculate my status.

I have no notifications Looks like they'll keep billing me 9.22 euros monthly for some time. If they raised the quote, then I'd consider canceling my subscription.

I have a similar deal with them but with monthly payments. I got it raised about three years ago when they opened the European branch, so they charge me close to 10 euros for 40 downloads every month. They haven't warned me that any raise is coming yet, but I suppose they'll do sooner or later.

LOL Welcome Ironbut, you look like you'll enjoy the stay

Be careful, some those ebay cases are just a copycat of the ones at hifiheadphones. Are softer, smaller (so the wires have to flex too much to fit) and not as nice. Difficult saying for the pics. I have one from hifiheadphones and I'm quite happy with it. I use it to keep the PS-1. GS-1 and PS-1000 won't fit. I hope the HF-2 fit as well, if so, I'll order another.

Done!

I wish that Afrikane's ES-1 goes to Spritzer or Dmitri, both guys truly deserve it

Take care mate, I would skip that trip. Take your pills and have good rest. Get well soon.

Yep, it's a brightness in the midrange, which I attribute to the kevlar midwoofers for being present in most B&W speakers, and also a metallic tint somewhere higher in the treble. You need to listen carefully to voices you know very well, and also some wind instruments to be fully aware of what's going on. Then there's the bass, which is a bit "boxy" though quite tout for bass reflex speakers. Overall good speakers and for the price, I suppose a good alternative to Wilson Sophias/Watt Puppies and many other high priced big boxes pretending sound big and forceful.

LOL I guess you were under the influence of spirits. Though impressive (very much indeed if played loud) those speakers can become very fatiguing on the long run. I needed 3 listening sessions at an audio shop here to realize they weren't my cup of tea. However big speakers sound... well, "big", which is good at times.

Mmm you seem to be an expert on that I think I wouldn't mess with the sack and strings I suppose you know how they castrate swines...

Hahaha, and it's not me in HF

Has anyone seen pics to know how "complex" was the "lacing"?

That's starting to get me impatient to receive my HF-2. Still a few weeks away
