I hear p-froggle might be selling his Veda

They could come out with a really nice built to order amp.

Indexing the Head-Case, I did a search for headphone stuff on Google and a Head-Case link was number 3

U R DOOOOOMD

Holy shit you have a Crimson? Pics man, inside shots if possible

I've done a few with my setup, using an E-MU0404usb as the ADC. The original vinyl sounded better.

Similar "revelation" with a modded Aries3/Avantgarde setup. I would gladly invest in a nice vinyl rig after hearing how capable that system was.

Have you found one yet?

Hello Nenso, you have an uphill battle to face, since Nanoha is the Nenso^__^ha of H-C

So much good music (I would grab The Big Beat for the ones coming up)

My take on musical is when a DAC is able to sound effortless and realistic (and the closest I've heard to this is a very nice vinyl system- sound that was able to fill the room without being placed on a 2-D plane). It should have a deep sounstage, good imaging, and NOT be bright. The Lavry erred toward the sterile, slightly brighter sound, lacked dynamics, drier midrange, and little depth to the soundstage; this is why I did not call it a musical DAC. So it's not purely a measurement of frequency response. I did a comparison somewhere on Head-Case between the Lavry and my North Star and I was going to sell the one I liked less, the Lavry was gone in two days. It was obvious with my K1000 and HP-2 system. I did not get to hear the DA10 with speakers, but in my experience speakers are more revealing of sources than headphones since they have to make it sound like the musicians are playing in the room instead of inside a smaller space (which is in my opinion easier to do).

I didn't think the DA10 was that bad, sounded pretty linear to me. However it really wasn't that musical (pro DAC/opamp output stage???) compared to my current DAC, and like people have said in the past it lacked dynamics. Microdynamics were buried and undetailed/hard to differentiate from the rest of the music. Macrodynamics were ehhh...bleh.

Interesting...is there any measurement data on diyaudio?

Haha good job. You'll laugh at it on later date.

Very poetic. I can't wait to get back to NH with pantloads of snow (of course dealing with it for a whole season... )

Gagne was really a no brainer, IMO.

tkam add this one, it's not too big and sort of fits with the site If only Foxit had CTRL+F...

The new ones look pretty bad IMO (RS-1 are similar quality) jellybones: there might be a place that still sells them for $550 new if you don't mind the look, send me a PM if you want their info.

Dave I saw the feedback you left for the guy on the item (you might) be referring to. He was a bit odd to deal with as well, I was a bit worried about selling to him since it was an expensive item and his communication was less than stellar. In the end he came through. I usually give buyers the benefit of the doubt, but I've been burned on big ticket items before so I check their feedback first from now on. As a buyer I try not to put a seller in a position when I can only pay later, and generally only offer to buy something if I have the funds available. Or I'll offer to put down a significant non-refundable down payment. No it's about a buying experience. Headphones are about headphones; not one particular situation in which headphones were involved.

Does he DJ a lot?
