am I p-froggle? if so, that nickname is a bit of a reach.

You make some good points, Billy. But I'm not saying that housing doesn't make a huge difference in how a headphone sounds. I'm saying it is difficult for me to swallow that the drivers from the SR225 to the RS-1 are the exact same. As far as your button theory goes with regards to brightness levels in the 325i and MS2i: if that is the case, then the newer, buttonless RS-1 should be significantly less bright then their most recent (lighter wood) button'ed incarnations.

ehhh, its kind of hard for me to buy the "all the drivers are the same" theory. The difference between the SR225 and the RS-1 is nothing short of staggering in terms of tonality and soundstage.

Good point. Also, I think if I took the initiative to rip out the drivers that surely someone would be willing to make some custom enclosures for me.

Lots of folks put HF-1 drivers and 325i drivers into custom turned wood enclosures. Anyone ever do this with RS-1 drivers? Would be expensive, since essentially you would have to purchase an RS-1 just to cut the drivers out of the already-attractive wooden enclosure. But people have done stranger things in this hobby. Anyway, I'm just curious as to how RS-1 drivers would sound in a deeper wooden enclosure.

Kind of OT, but this is one of my favorite attributes of the RS-1, and it was the very first thing I noticed the first time I heard mine.

yes, but do your MP3s grow tax-free?

it was gone from your signature!!

hey did you sell your hp2 for the second time?

Well I've never heard the 007, but if it ain't broke...

Great read. I'd seen the thread title but never clicked on it, thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Well I decided to preorder Big Beat from this batch. I'll judge from that whether it's worth investing in any others. I'm a sucker for the sonics of Blakey's drumming though. The MFSL of Tunisia... WOW.

hell yes! wow, i think i like the pretty princess emoticon way too much.

Welcome to head-case, Nenso!

Yeah, I was thinking Big Beat or maybe Undercurrent. I have the RVG of Undercurrent, I'll have to give it another listen before I decide if its worth springing for the LP.

deep inside he hates himself more then you ever could hate him.

for my 4 year old niece.

Justin, at this point I'll pretty much be basing my purchasing decision on what you say about the SR-007mk2. Not to mention my amp choice will surely be an HA KGSS. So I'm looking forward to your impressions. As for me, I just bought a Wizard Of Oz Wicked Witch of the West Barbie doll.

I know I'll be picking up a select few of these. I'm crazy, but not crazy enough to purchase a full subscription. Six upcoming titles Complete 63 Title Release Schedule Anyone have any suggestions on which titles are real gooduns? The only one I'm 100% that I'll be purchasing is Johnny Griffin - The Congregation. moderator suggestion: make you links work!

no NSFW amp internal pictures though.

I want an orpheus clone.
