  1. It's cool, tangent's got that covered. Notes on Audio Op-Amps Just found the huuuuuuge thread on diyaudio about vertical/lateral MOSFETs vs. BJTs on diyaudio. Gonna take me a couple weeks to read through and understand.
  2. Looks like she's wearing safety glasses.
  3. That's assuming a ~2 year warranty. 15000/24 = 625 days. It only needs 8800 hours of burn-in with a 1 year warranty.
  4. More holes, more pleasure. You should do this with your Saab engine:
  5. Output power and class A biasing aside, I'm not sure how well a warmer smoother sound would work with the stock LCD-2. Maybe output BJTs would be better, so try a Dynahi or PPAv2 if you can find one? But if you still have your balanced M3, definitely try it out.
  6. Grado fart cannons ftl. I also doubt the bass will magically decrease with burn-in. Do you still have the first version or did you trade that in for the second?
  7. Forgot to mention that if you get any of the OK series from Yuin, don't bother with the ear canal attachment things. They make everything sound like complete suck.
  8. I have owned the Yuin OK3 which was killed in a horrible vacuuming accident (RIP, wasn't me) and liked it quite a lot for how much I paid for it, which I think was $40 (used). The Head-Direct RE-Zero which I won at CJ is just a canalphone so less isolating than an IEM and it's not bad either, though it is $100 and you have to use the shitty TRRS -> TRS adapter. I think I read somewhere the previous version, RE-0, doesn't have much bass and I get the feeling the HE-Zero doesn't have enough bass for portable use though is fine otherwise. And yes the ER6i is pretty isolating.
  9. Nice. Though I can't even imagine what 60kbps is like anymore. Right now it takes me 5-10 seconds to load pages and it's pissing me off.
  10. Why are you running dial up?
  11. more than this is needed.
  12. Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have Had It So Much Better
  13. Beirut - March of the Zapotec
  14. I heard the 007t and assuming it's similar to the T1 variants, I can see where you're coming from. The 007t sounds like a bloated mess imo.
  15. Ratatat - LP4
  16. Er, yes, that's what we've been discussing for the last past couple of pages.http://www.head-case.org/forums/headphones/785-headcase-stax-thread-332.html#post374083
  17. Some of them don't quite.. look right... V Kind of NSFW
  18. So it's one of those once in a lifetime things, eh? Hope things are resolved in a timely manner. One would think there would be tests done to make sure the buttons worked before shipping on such a big item.
  19. I'm not going to get around to it for a loooooooooong time, but when I do, sure I'll take some pics.
  20. It's hard to explain, but they're two different things. The best way to improve is to practice in such a way that can only be described as boring and pedantic. Slowly, with a metronome, making sure every single note is in tune, every note is properly vibrated, every phrase and direction is properly conveyed, both by itself and with respect to what is happening around it. However, that does not necessarily make practicing boring. It only does if you're not into music enough and/or don't see an end (eg an eventual finished and polished product you can perform) in sight. I find a lot of the music majors at my school just plain aren't into music, which is odd. It seems blatantly obvious even to me, an outsider of music (I didn't even intend on being a music major until I randomly got the acceptance letter and was like that seems interesting), that you will have to love music enough to practice 6+ hours a day straight, and people just don't seem to get that.
  21. I never bothered to figure out what was wrong with the one I bought from you, but I think whatever the issue is will be fixable when I get around to it. It may involve complete disassembly of the drivers... but it is fixable. Maybe I'll redo the mylar diaphragms and make a little project out of it.
  22. I have one pro and two sigs? But one of them will be converted to possibly NB with your drivers which may or may not be NB drivers. I think they are.
