Your DIY Hi-Fi transport edged out everything I threw at it. The Lambda was pretty close though. The reason I didn't mention the DIY Hi-Fi as an option for peanutbutterjam was only due to the difficulty in obtaining one. It would most certainly be my first choice in transports below $1,500.00, and might embarrass a few over that price point. BTW the remote is in transit to you Earl.

What will you be amping them with Earl?

Tony was gracious enough to buy two pair of T50RP for he and I. They're shipping to me directly, and I'll mod them ala Smeggy. Smeg I may have a few questions for you when the time comes, hope you don't mind.

I see remnants of silicone caulk. Someone has attempted a repair on these it seems, and it was a fail.

I would think JB Weld would be plenty strong, and somewhat easy to work with. I've used in to bond aluminum together with great results.

Absolutely, and while many people seem to think that there should be no difference, in fact there are. I've compared several transports as well as CDPs used as a transport, and they all had different signatures. However the good news is that there are several less expensive transports that perform quite well. A good used PS Audio Lambda transport is one of my favorites. The California Audio Labs unit stands up quite well too.

This thread is getting lots of good attention lately. As Head-Case is very much my prefered forum these days, and the Ortho thread was my favorite thread on HF, this makes me very happy!

Stupid question Duggeh... I know that you Brits refer to a meal when you say tea, but is it only proper to refer to lunch as tea, or is it the same for dinner? Here in the South many people refer to lunch as dinner, and dinner as supper. That quite frankly drives a Northerner like me crazy.

Marc, as small as the ribbons are that I'm using in my upcoming speaker project, wouldn't they incorporate well into a headphone design?

I think I'll probably buy it in 09', but I'll wait a bit.

Let me clarify...I will perform the screen mod for free on the pair of Sextetts that Nate is selling.

No screen mod on them, but I can do that for any Head-Caser that would want it. No charge.

They look great, and I like the White too. Glad to hear how great they mate with your room. What are you driving them with?

If I built those out of wood blocks that would be the worlds most awesome speaker diffusor!

X2! But put some clothes on this time Fitz.

No shit! Congrats Fitz! I luvs me some Maggies!

Shit! You just can't have secrets around here. Uhm, I'd say he's the polar opposite of jagwire. Sorry to be so clandestant but it's not for me to unveil. The project isn't complete, he's got some work to do on his end. I'm sure you'll be seeing it soon though.

I finished up a really fun project for a friend and fellow member. Some of you may even know him.

OK, I've only heard snippits of this story, so I'm ignorant to the outcome. What's the deal, and which member is Tom?

I think I got that from a loose girl back in 87', but penicillin cleared it right up.

And you know it looks handy for hauling gear to meets.

Finally some realistic tweaks at a bargain price!

HHR for your son? You're a good Dad!

I prefer the classics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skU-jBFzXl0
