^hahahaha you're more nuts than me I call dibs on that when you sell it

That was my guess, on some albums it

LOL, I get 4 albums, 2 live performances (the one you get in Texas and another one titled "The tigers have spoken") and 1 compilation appearing. Maybe it's a geographic issue, it's possible that you're not allowed to get the 4 main albums for being in the USA, but in my case from Europe I have access to all them. But were that the case, then you hadn't been able to reach the first direct link to the Middle Cyclone download... Very weird. Well, just in case you need the direct link to any of the other albums: Fox confessor brings the flood Furnace room lullaby Blacklisted The tigers have spoken Let me know if they work for you.

I'm very sorry to know you lost your grandfather. I miss mine a lot. My condolences Chris, I hope you have a safe trip to Barbados.

Dusty, I don't know what could be wrong in your search procedure, maybe it's a browser thing. I just write "Neko Case" in the search window on top of the page. Then it shows two possible results matching artist name: "Neko Case" and "Neko case and her boyfriends". If I click on the first result, then I get this page which on the right side has Middle Cyclone on top. If I choose "Neko Case and her boyfriends" then the only available album is "The Virginian" Anyway, if you write to them it won't harm

My condolences for your loss

How long ago was that? I'd swear it's been available since March, maybe April. I'm quite happy with my e-music subscription. A legal and affordable way to feed the DAP with music which could be interesting on higher resolution.

You have Middle Cyclone at e-music and also at Amazon

Happy Birthday, have a great day

Hahahahaha, I ordered my pair while all you were still sleeping

Happy Birthday, have a great one!!!!

Happy Bday mate

Haven't read you lately, but very Happy Bday anyway

That was a safe yet nice choice. I hope you had a great time.

My sincere condolences Ken. Glad to know it was painless and quick. I'll raise a glass for him, sure.

Just 30? Have a great day

Thanks for commenting. I'm quite puzzled on why have those cans become a scientific standard, so everything about their response is pure guess on my side. Maybe it's just because someone used them, published results, and then everyone decided to stick to them Sometimes scientific work is that silly.

Happy Bday!!!!

I for one only can speak good things of Craig. He's the most supportive dealer I've met in this audio business, and always did his best to meet my demands. I'm sure this problem with Dreadhead's outbidding is beyond Craig's intentions, and mainly due to two factors, the software to manage the bids at Yahoo.jp, and the time shift with Japan. I can understand Dreadhead's frustration, but mate, you don't need to be so sarcastic referring to him in the way you did. He's a gentleman and even gentlemen make mistakes or can't attend things at some point.

LOL, well no, having a wrong midrange is more like discovering the "beautiful, attractive, intelligent, good-hearted, understanding, compatible girl" has a 10" dick under her pants.

Sounds quite fine here Fingers crossed for the PCBs working as expected.

Forget about studio monitoring and what they consider flat and their corrections. If the DT48E really measure flat -which I still have yet to see- for research purposes, they should be +/- 1dB within the 20-20000 range. The DT-48A, for audiometric purposes, are that flat in the 125-12000 range. Distortion depends on SPL when speaking about drivers. I suppose that the 0.9% figure is at the maximum rated output of 105 dBSPL. Most manufacturers wisely hide that data and only provide distortion figures at 90 or 95dB. Again seeing some measurements of distortion products and levels at different SPL for the DT48E is necessary to judge them based solely on figures.

Happy Bday

Did you find any frequency response plot? Their flat response is the only reason they're the standard for clinical research. I don't think it's their comfort or noise isolation Distortion is important when you're pushing them to very high SPL, which aren't very common in research. I suppose they won't do bad -not worse than any other dynamic- at normal SPLs. I haven't listened to them. I used the DT48A plugged into a clinical audiometer, so I can't speak about their performance with music I guess they'll do as good -or bad- as any flat measuring monitor.

Yep, it includes a plot where you can estimate the dBu or Volts (RMS and p-p) the DAC outputs at every step on balanced and SE operation. This allows setting it up to match any other source you're using.
