I'm telling you, give the Senn HD-25-1-II a try (See post 19). DEW EEET!!
-
Happy birthday Ian! I hope a hot goth chick singer shows up on your doorstep at some point today!
Cheers.
x2 with cake!

motorcyclists that get caught in my front grill ... selfish, inconsiderate fuckers.

Well for out and about I would also suggest the Senn HD-25-1MkII. Just make sure and switch out the original steel headphone cable with a stock HD-650 cable (and turn the earpieces upside down).
-
So is there a reason to choose the AT440MLa over the AT440ML, other than the ML is no longer in production? The stated specs of the ML appear superior to the MLa?
-
Thanks. Lots of good recommendations. I will track them down and try to make some decision. Right now the AT looks very interesting.

what kind of tonearm you got on there? detachable headshell? S shape or straight? sorry I don't know much about dual tts.
Its the standard tonearm that came on the system. Straight 8.75" tubular tonearm with a detachable cartridge holder. Four-point gimbal suspension with adjustable counter-balance, tonearm height and anti-skating. Will accept any cartridge with a mass of 1 - 10 g. Unless you owned one (and had the manual at hand) there would be no reason to know any of that (unless you were practicing for an audiophile cocktail party).

I am bringing my old Dual CS-721 (vintage 1976) out of retirement. I had some work done on it around 2002 and it works great. The cartridge on the other hand needs some help. It currently has an old Ortofon LM30 cartridge. A replacement stylus costs about the same as a new cartridge of comparable quality. Therefore, I am looking at alternative cartridges for this table. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, especially from those using older direct drive turntables

i determine the titles.
As well you should

And I would be the first agree. You take inanity to another level.
Sounds like a title to me.

I think stupid and inane posts are da bomb.

I was at UI (Psychology Dept) between 1978 and 1984. I went back for visits a couple of times since, but most of the people I knew have moved away, and I think it's been about 15 years since I was last there.
Well small world. I was there from 74 - 81 (Forestry). Was only back about 3 times from 81 - 05. Now I live 45 miles south, go figure.
-
Ah, Champaign in August. I've got six years of memories from there when I was in grad school. Particularly of note was the smell when a wind from the south came in over the experimental pig farms in summer...an experience that still causes me to shudder.
I did not know you went to UI. When were you there? I also remember the smell and it is still there (at least it was last week).
-
Thank dog, I was starting to feel old. Welcome and sorry about your thin and wrinkled skin.
-
... I'm going back to champaign IL to visit family this week ....
And there's also a pair of MS-Pro's about 45 miles south if you want to give them an audition
-
They are tubed, right? Then there are probably coupling capacitors that won't pass subsonic frequencies
The 324 is SS.
-
Do the upper end EAR phono stages have subsonic filters?
-
Yeah, I was really bummed when Logitech bought Slimdevices. But I have to hand it to them, they actually seem to be leaving the creative side alone and certainly Slimdevices has b rought new products to market much more quickly under the Logitech umbrella. I'm hoping they can do the same for UE, maybe then I can afford a UE custom.
-
I don't think they will have a patch for that, but they will be coming out with one that lets you quit playing in about 90 days.
-
I bought a set of Nugget Audio (aka Vince Vaughn Audio) (aka SuckitALO) XLR cables. The construction is outstanding as was the shipping. I cannot think of anyone who I would rather do business with than Nate, except maybe Mother Theresa, but I haven't heard too many positive reviews of her cables.

Happy birthday to the man that knew about headphone audiophilia before there were headphones

We took the canoe and our son on their maiden voyage on Lake Charleston today. I almost forgot how great canoeing can be.

I used to work for UGA, so Happy Birthday!

Seems weird to put a random passive preamp in the same box doesn't it? If it were me I'd prefer to just have a loop out option or something like that.Same here.
Well if it's weird then it's me who is eird as Mikhail was just doing what I was asking. I actually do not use that function now as my sources connects digitally to my speaker amp and thus bypass the ES-1/preamp entirely. Of course that was not the case when I originally ordered the ES-1.
Good call. It could be the v-3310 based upon the remote.
What If I Were Looking For a Complementary HP for The 750..?

Was that with the stock cord? Switching out to the stock HD-650 IMO gives it a less "in-your-face" presentation and definitely cleans up some treble harshness. However, soundstage is what it is with this phone regardless of cable.
