Sennheiser HD201 good buy?
You don't get to fucking tout your own posting ability or /thread here, guy. Read the welcome PM a few more times until you actually comprehend it.

New DAC in Town
It's kinda funny: $300 for dual differential with all the other features makes it a crazy deal, but balanced drive is probably one of the last things I'd worry about in that price range. Take that away, though, and it's suddenly not quite the screaming deal it seems to be.

Wyred 4 Sound (ESS Sabre) DAC
How the fuck does something make your "short list" despite your having pretty much no useful information about it?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say I don't mind the way it looks.

AD2000: Crap or not
Meh, uncreative and unfunny. Also doesn't know AT from Denon... what a stupid clown. A very thorough failure.

Norcal Meet - Oct 30th 2010 (Saturday) - New Eddie Current Product (EC 215)
Well that postponement might work better for me. I'd definitely be down to kick it and maybe get some pho.

Asr taking cues from Ray? Come on dude, that's not a legitimate reason for missing a meet. Don't let your fear control you!!

b22 configuration discussion...
Modding a 3-board Beta to be balanced? Wouldn't that basically require gutting it? That seems kinda inefficient...
-
this is so sad....
Well, even if we ignore the headphones, that chick in the rainbow hoodie is not looking cute at all. And of course the guys with the Betty face hoodies are fucking abominable. A fail any way you look at it.

Is this possible ? Or just another snake oil ?
Eminent Tech aren't exactly con artists as far as I can tell. Whether it sounds good or integrates well into a regular speaker setup though... dunno.

Jvlgato, you are just too damn nice. I would've suggested permaban as soon as he badmouthed the forum. Whiny fucking bitch.

Sennheiser 800: Time to go balanced. Options.
I do prefer the sound of a nice HD650 recable over stock as well, but that doesn't really say anything about HD800. Stock HD650 is pretty bleh to me anyways. I don't mind recabling in general too much, but I always first ask myself if that $200 can be parlayed into a fancier source or something. Honestly, I'd rather invest in jitter reduction before recabling: an RME or Lynx card or Squeezebox, for instance. So it's like: "OK, I have $200-300ish to blow. I am perfectly content with my source/amp, and that money won't improve either of those at all. OK, I guess I'll try a new headphone cable then."

I'd pay $3500 for $1000 worth of parts, if it's done well.

How high can the JH13 scale?
Get your ass to the source section, then. You seem to have a good idea how you want to proceed.
