So now you can understand why I was running around CanJam like a crazed addict talking about them? I knew they were a game-changer, not long after I pressed play that afternoon! Yes! JH13 plus high-end source plus fast, transparent amp with Pico Slim volume control FTW!

Hopefully I will know next week if Jerry or his products will make our August meet. But if you do go for them, I HIGHLY doubt you'll regret it. Because they are high-end performers, among all headphones, period.

YES! Pico Grande! I love it!

I just did a little listening straight from my Sansa Clip and modded IHP-120. There is no question that the Pico makes the bass impact more noticeable and physical. The JH13 is so revealing, though, that using the Pico DAC, as opposed to either of the above players makes by far the biggest difference. The difference in clarity and detail is very significant. Now I just want to hear them from a uber-high-end DAC! If you are just listening from a DAP, you're leaving quite a bit on the table.

Well, I managed to talk to Jerry today. He is going to remake my set, and I need not send back the one I have now until I get the new one. So he definitely came through to take care of the situation, just as I would have expected.

MOSFET adapter?

Dude, your BHSE is so awesome looking, not to mention unique, why would you ever have to contemplate anything else?

Well I will certainly have the discussion. Brittany is so nice, I can't imagine needing to go type-A bitchy on her, if I could even locate that sector of my personality Probably just that the current level of orders have them somewhat overwhelmed. According to Brittany, she never sees Jerry anymore, because he is spending all his time, including what little sleep he gets, in the lab.

There's my excuse!

I can certainly understand that. I've been listening nonstop for about two hours, the grin on my face is growing by the minute. At this rate, I might need reconstructive surgery by midnight!

Really, shoot, there goes my memory. At least I don't have to feel too silly, since I didn't own one! That would have been really bad.

Yeah, I guess I just find it aggravating that I would have to be deprived of something I've been waiting 6 weeks for, because THEY made a mistake. Boo hoo, right? But it still chaps my hide a bit. The do sound fucking fantastic though! The more I listen, the less and less I want them to go anywhere!

Thanks! I love the experience of using the D700, that the pictures come out better is a bonus at this point. I never thought I'd like live view, but I guess it is easy to say that about things you haven't tried. But between the live view, larger viewfinder, vastly better screen, improved menu and playback/editing system, more ergonomic and useful vertical grip, and viewfinder shutter, the camera is just a joy to use. Add in the wicked ISO performance, and 8FPS, and shoot howdy what a camera!

If it was going to be Mac-only, they should have painted it white, like the duet!

Happy Birthday, rock it out Neil!

I'm not sure that I feel like sending them back, if only because I don't know how long it would be before I see them again. And the shipping costs. I wouldn't mind so much, if I hadn't be quite clear and upfront about my desires, in numerous emails dating back to just a week or so after CanJam. I will call and see what they have to say. Again, it's not horrible or anything, just not what I asked for, which is somewhat the definition of custom in this instance. The right fits just perfect as far as I can tell, being a n00b to customs. It is harder to get a seal in the left, but it just takes a bit more pressure. It might just be me being new to the whole custom thing. Once they are in though, the seal is great, again, as far as I can tell, as the sound and the isolation are both what they are cracked up to be.

The driver doesn't poke out, it's just an optical illusion present in areas where the shell and driver are attached and almost perfectly parallel to each other.

Eh..well..the intent was for the logo to be silver, and for the shell to be darker and more toward the indigo than the violet. Perhaps I am just being bitchy, but it isn't what I described/showed them mockups of (including render done by Edwood I posted earlier in the thread). The do sound superb though. Certainly more neutral than the L3000!

Eh go figure, here I am with plenty of camera, and yet my JH13's didn't turn out quite as intended:

LOL, how's that for irony? At least that Emotiva looks like one sweet piece of kit, and now you don't have to justify it, you NEED it!

I will talk to him. Maybe even if he can't come, he could send the universal fit version? I know UE has done this at past meets where they didn't have an employee attending.

Yeah, really, eh! I'm looking for a big brown sleigh in the yard tomorrow morning!

I have not had good experiences with Kensington products in general. Just glad I didn't own any of them.

Be wary of this mouse. I received one as a warranty replacement for an MX1000, and I found it to be too narrow in the thumb reigon, which made my hand hurt over time. It seemed fine at first, so an in-store trial wouldn't necessarily reveal whether it would work or not. After that I went to a G5, which I found very comfortable.
