got the drivers in today, that was fast. later tonight I'll attempt to dismantle them and pop these in. then begins the 8,000 hour burn in procedure; white noise through the ha-2 at maximum volume.

still just a rumor IMO, perpetuated by lies from the tyll/jude/voltron/#s vaporware hype machine, for unknown ends.

happy birthday kg!

happy birthday!

i lurv bass in my transducers.

also, I'm going to start putting I DONT SELL ASS WIPES FROM CANADA in all my for sale ads.

sounds like a total sketchball, thanks. and thanks justin for the United Online Shopping tip, looks good.

anyone know if agon seller American_theater is an authorized Sony retailer? they seem sketchy to me, but their price is the best I've seen at $1050.

Depeche Mode - Sounds of the Universe Vinyl. Comes with CD.

after a few years in this hobby, I think it's safe to say I'm a tubes guy. I've owned some awesome SS gear, but tubes always pull me back, even with all the bullshit hassles. I have yet to try tubes in speaker amplification however. WANT THAT TESTER

ah, that's right, KG was talking about the upcoming pre/pro.

Widespread Panic Allman Bros. Birmingham, AL Sat, Oct. 10th two tickets.

sweeeeeet! no way I'm paying your 0% processing fee though.

it was definitely the tube. after I waited for cool down and rolled in a new output, my ksc75 sounds splendid. this is the second time I've blown a driver with a bad tube. makes me want to get a tube tester.

I've been comparing the 5400 and 6400 receivers. Basically the 6400 has ten more watts amplification, ethernet, and something called H.A.T.S audio technology. Not sure if that justifies the price increase.

super sweet of you stevieo, but I think I'll just go with the two new drivers like you did. Its possible something is wrong with my left driver as well, its just hard to tell because listening to them right now is so disconcerting. So I'd rather just swap two in to be safe. I am happy to hear its an easy procedure. Nate, I'm going to give it a shot myself, and if I can pull it off, no need to ship it to you.

three evenings of Widespread Panic last weekend. Breather this weekend. Next week Robert Randolph on Thursday, Death Cab on Saturday. I'm not the biggest Death Cab fan but a friend really wanted me to come with.

I got mine ordered today, she told me I'd have them in 5 days. Thanks again for the part number.

it really couldn't have been easier. I just called and spoke with Renee, gave her the part number pabbi provided, card # and address. $90.80.

Alan, is that another SACD player?

HD650 drivers. I'm missing my cans. Should arrive in 5 days according to Sennheiser.

I'll get on the horn to Sennheiser ASAP and get a pair of drivers.

that's high praise if it was feeding the BHSE and O2.

subpress also has a few tim powers books. amazon has them for ~$55 apiece. I'm sure you already own them and/or know this.

any further impressions from j-bone or anyone else who has picked one up? great write-up in Stereophile this month.
