ical won't be iposting for a little while.

The designer asked that I not share it.

I'm about 50/50 right now. It's 2 days before Lily's birthday and I'm doing what I can to convince my wife that celebrating it the following weekend would be the best option. It's also unclear whether or not the whole family will make the trip so that the wife/kid can visit friends who live in the city or if I'll make the typical solo trip.

Great idea that, stand next to a river and fire off a few thousand rounds of lead bullets. Fish for dinner anyone?

Happy Birthday John!

Yes, 2 of them

Bastard. I love Thanksgiving Dinner.

The Official Naming Convention of Menaces (Menacie?) The original will always be simply "The Menace". (approx 50lbs) The most recent incarnation is "The MenaceTC Lite". (approx 30lbs) The forthcoming stupidly expensive 307A-based nonsense is tentatively called "Colossus". Since the topology is so different I decided a while back to give it an entirely different name. I'm not sold on the current one, but until something better comes around it is what it is. Someone could, if so inclined, build a MenaceTC that would bear a strong similarity to the original and would be even heavier but that amp would look significantly different than the 307A amp. I also won't be able to share the schematic I'm using for the 307A amp further separating it from the original Menace concept. As for what it takes to be called Colossus, well here's the current pile o' parts.

I was not.

Pisser. If that doesn't do it she probably will need her computer and some time to bring it back.

There were supposed to be two well equipped Blue Hawaii's (although neither technically an SE) at the NYC but sadly both builders failed to complete them in time. We'll get them next time.

Not crazy, there's already a group of us working on it. Except for that whole battery powered bit, funk that.

I use wall warts all the time. Of course I usually feed them through a regulated power supply but I guess my point is that wall warts are not inherently evil nor created equal.

Doesn't seem horribly over-priced if it's actually built well. Not knowing how they go about developing the various output voltages it's kind of hard to say. An internal picture would be very interesting.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

$600 is going to be very hard to get anything worth buying not to mention anything that will run Photoshop. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Dan was too cryptic in saying the same thing.

Sorry, but that's wildly inaccurate especially if you're talking Ebay pricing as we were for this meter. I paid less than $200 new for my 179, granted that's 5x the cost but as you describe in the rest of your review that $$ is definitely buying you something.

How is ALO supposed to cram 19 strands of 14awg flesh-toned goodness into there?

FWIW I too preferred the HE5 and not by a small margin. The LCD-2 is not a headphone that I'd want to own, it's soundstage and presentation were just weird to my ears. Diffuse, unfocused and with some odd mid-range push on top of the fact that they were heavy and have quite possibly the largest pads known to man.
