Did you check to see if Wadragon/LobsterKing was selling your equipment somwhere?

If you bought from SingleFlower, it's going to take much longer than whatever they said it would take, if they ever ship at all.

I was tempted to say that $600 will buy a couple or three of bottles of good whisk(e)y.

Uh oh. It looks like it's going to be yet another week without a B22 and even fuzzier pictures for you.

That alone made your trip to CanJam worth it. I think that the original has much nicer etching.

1 am 1n total agreement w1th you. I really like my HF2 and prefer them to any current John Grado headphone. They hold their own against the HP1000 and PS1 too.

Happy Birthday Guys. Have great ones! :headcase:

Looks like a "City" fish too.

I just had the amp idling (i.e. no music) for 1 hour. The transformer cover is absolutely cool to the touch. Do I need to redo the test with music playing?

If Mikhail turned up shot, there wouldn't be enough policemen in the country to check out all the potential suspects.

I'll check the temperature tonight. With the Platinum Extremes, there is no 4"x4" box. Instead, there is a round transformer cover (probably part of the transformer itself) that has a height of 3.5" and a diameter of 6". You've actually seen pictures of the internals before as I've posted them here. However, here they are again: http://s128.photobucket.com/albums/p197/kmueller13/P1010169.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p197/kmueller13/P1010171.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p197/kmueller13/P1010172.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p197/kmueller13/P1010174.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p197/kmueller13/P1010176.jpg http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p197/kmueller13/P1010178.jpg The issue with D5 is known. I'm hoping that it's due to me running 6528 tubes for a short period of time. It hasn't gotten any worse since I stopped. Of course, Mikhail ok'ed running those tubes for up to 3 hours at a time. D5 will be replaced soon. Edit: Oh yeah, while I can't see much of the transformer including a model number, I can see that Plitron's web addy on it.

Naaman said it much better.

Headroom sells a balanced HD800. You might want to see if they'll sell just the cable. It would be a lot less than other custom cables.

I had him rebuild my ppx3 into an extreme. Mine is the platinum version with the plitron transformer. Do you have any idea of what plitron Mikhail used and whether it is underpowered too?

He definitely is what he is.

The real problem is that ipodpj is an ipodpj fanboy.

I'm surprised that nobody has suggested the obvious solution. All one of the respected amp builders has to do is suggest that she build tube amps. Then the problem will take care of itself.

There's a setting for all kinds of shit. I just slowed it down to 1200 DPI. I'm much happier with it at this speed.

Doesn't matter. After adjusting them 1mm, they would be 2mm from optimum. Murphy's Law strikes again.

I bought raffy's Mamba after reading this glowing recommendation. The feel is a little wider than I'm used to, but not bad, just different. I'm trying to get used to how fast the mouse tracks. I'm still overshooting everything. If I can't get used to it, I'll have to slow it down. In the end, if I can't get used to the Mamba, I figure I can just sell it to Jacob.

And that's the nicest thing I can think of to say about him.

Thanks for straightening me out, not that it matters. To me, he's the worst shill among the various audio magazines and has been for years. However, I haven't read any in the last couple of years, so maybe somebody has supplanted him.

Did Sam laugh his "evil laugh" all the way to the bank? My understanding from posts years ago on Audioasylum is that Sam's real name is Sam Gillet and that he reversed his last name to get his pen name.
