Thank you. I'm not sure I understand the question. The slips include 1/4, 1/2 and full mile speeds. Do you mean dynamometer (eg eddie current dyno)? HS

My favorite event was last weekend, the Texas Mile. It's a standing mile event and the first and largest of its kind. Basically we take over an ex-Navy airfield that's a private airport now so there's a mile and a half length "track". Always a bunch of great folks willing to help each other out and visit about their vehicles. Some neat cars and bikes there. Chrysler had a press crew there and my boy and I got sucked into an interview. Got our pit crew some swag so I guess it's all good in the end. Managed to beat my modern MOPAR record once I got my boat anchor of a 4L80E (GM truck transmission) to take overdrive. Really excited that the breakage was down to small stuff like a chin spoiler with a steel belly pan supporting it that sheared from the front bumper fascia and I cupped the steel pan and dragged all the way back to the pit...whoops. I had an end link come loose which woke me up. For one of these two reasons she was all over the place on the big end on a 211mph pass, but we went into town and double nutted it back on the coilover and all good. Zip ties FTW!!! HS

Too much bass out of the 007A Mk2 with the Carbon? I thought it really fleshed them out down low where they could use a bit more and tighter bass. I use an Ygg as a DAC so perhaps we have chain deltas and/or different tastes, purk. HS

I had not seen him in a long time. RIP... HS

Dang...that's a youthful passing for Pete. RIP, sir. I listened to your vinyls many a time being spun at new wave joints throughout the 80's. Might have a 12" or two of your music in one of the milk crates... HS

Ditto on a dynalo plus paired with the Senn's but mine are 650's as I prefer a warmer sound sig. You can get great value for money if that is one's preference. There is no arguing the headphone market has heated up, but that was inevitable with the advent of the cellular phone, higher capacity memory and growing streaming options. Shit happens... HS

RIP King. HS

Metalicized....plasticized. What's the difference....lmao. HS

The Ether stats must have improved A LOT since I last listened to them to be worth the climb. The good thing is that you and anyone else in the room gets to enjoy your music...at about the same volume you do. HS

The Mr. Speakers are loud as hell if you're sitting next to someone listening to them. I've never heard anything nearly that loud before...might as well have a radio in the room. Hopefully they've improved their efficiency and the sound signature. I couldn't believe how high I had to crank my KGSSHV Carbon (450v) to get them to make a good bit of sound. In a way it was damn impressive how inefficient the beta's I listened to were... HS

Just watched the video. That man must be hi.... HS

RIP, Gentlemen....and thank you for making things more fun and better. HS

Twisted and dark enough to keep it interesting. Hopefully the ongoing story line is solid. Quite the cast. HS

It's a shame that so often the response is some unobtainium pair of cans that are not only are pricey but would prove difficult to service should a problem arise. Not going down that path anymore. I'll stick with very good at the risk of missing out on someone else's nirvana. 007A's out of a Carbon, HD650's out of a Headamp GS-1 dynalo+, and my TH900's out of a Woo WA7 w/ some upgraded tubes all fed by an Ygg. Nothing crazy but each one makes me smile and 99% is good enough. Must be strong... I'll save the self-flagellation for my race car...LOL HS

Wow...that's a lot to process. Rough year in the way of losses. Godspeed, Jose, Arnold and Radio... HS

RIP Sushi. Clearly a good life to get to enjoy that long a run! HS

RIP, John... HS

RIP, Gene. You will be missed and remembered, sir... HS

That's a major loss! RIP, Mr. Baker. You did much great work. Godspeed... HS

That's a major loss! RIP, Mr. Baker. You did much great work. Godspeed... HS

Sorry to see this, Dave. Best of luck with the repair. HS

That's sad as can be. I damn near wore out my copy of 3 Feet HIgh and Rising... HS

Woot!!! HS

The GS-1 with the dynalo+ boards upgrade does great with the HD650's. I'm curious about this dynahi but I need it about as much as I need another car... The price point sure does look sexy for what it appears to be.... HS

any pics of these beasts in the wild? HS
