Just had a Sabor Cubano Grand Torpedo. Great smoke! A box of these is definitely going to get stashed away. And another for smoking now

This is definitely on my list of builds. I need to brush up on my Solidworks so I can have a case fitting for such an amp. Hmmm monoblock or single chassis?

We use to get those by the donkey load. We would catch donkey trains full of them being smuggled across the boarder from Syria. Made the cigarette smokers happy when we would land with the rear of the helicopter full of them.

I suck. Good thing for mods and the edit function.

Just had a Reserva Del Milenio Monticristo Robusto (Cuban). Purchased a jar of these back in 2000 and smoked maybe 6 so far. They keep getting better with age. If only I had a good scotch to go with it.

It has binding post speaker connections on the back so it should have worked if he just plug it in that way.

2005s suck. 2003s are good.

If the deeps loose that horrible bottom end of the regulars they could be okay. But being the best headphone under $2000? please.

3G is a cellular standard. A iTouch 3g would be a iPhone.

I just couldn't keep my mouth shut. Lets see that hate mail start pouring in. http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/post-pics-your-darth-beyers-205806/index192.html#post4310731

It's like we just went back in time.

So far I am pretty happy with my XPS->Buffalo DAC. Not high end as far as price goes though.

FTW

Going to post this here and not even bother with the other place. So I have wanted a pair of snake wood Darths for some time now. I figured I would like how they sound seeing as I like my '03 880s and how much they are hyped at the other place. So when a pair showed up at half price in the for sale section I jumped on them. I received them today. Really? People really like these? I know they were going to be a bit bass heavy but not bass bloated. The low end totally ruins any chance they have of sounding good. Or okay for that matter. Makes me really question all the people that talk them up as being a great sounding headphone. No offense if your reading this and your one of those people. Maybe I am just spoiled by the other phones I have. Just had to get that off my chest.

I'm in! What are we doing?

I'm not sure if it would be worth the trouble pulling them apart to replace the cable. The problem is that the ear cups are glued in place (bad idea I know) and would have to be removed.

I am liking the 1.2Bs enough that I just might have to give them a socket on the BH. I really wish they would have replaced this crappy cable with a Stax in the first place. Buffalo->BH->12.B= So far I am really impressed with the 1.2Bs. Glad I hung in there. Time will tell how they hold up in the long run.

That is tempting. Would make a fun little Linux box. I just wish it had a IR receiver on it. Stupid Sony.

Here is some Buffalo pRon in my test bed.

It looks like they are on their second test board of the Uber controller which they should have in a week or so. They are going to have a CS8614 MUX that has 1 AES input and 3 SPDIF with I2S and SPDIF output. All the inputs and outputs will be transformer coupled. Can either be switched with the Uber or a rotary switch. I'm excited. As for the Buffalo I am very impressed. A couple things jump out at me between it and the Opus/COD. It seems to be much more 3D. Instruments now have much greater depth and layering. Another is how basses sound, both electric and acoustic. They just sound amazingly resolved. Tonally it sounds very good but maybe a bit hot on the top end. Need to do some more listening to decide. Crap what am I saying. These suck. Don't buy them. If you see them for sale let me know so I can purchase them and take them off the street (I'm trying swt61 )

A second the B22 as a good amp for the B22. I picked up my pair off of ebay for $50ish bucks. Did the mods myself for another $10. So they can be had inexpensively if you are patient. On a side note I have yet to install the fabric over drivers, so my ears touch the electret. Needless to say if I touch anything grounded I get a nice little shock through my ears. So if you get them and mod them make sure you install the fabric over the drivers.

I got a 11. Kickass.

Enjoy!
