How Do You Store Your Audio Crap?
Mark has a scary, scary DIY cave. Not scary in the sense of what you can't find, scary in the sense of what you might find when you go looking... "Oh hey, look at that, 40 OPA627s."

Jack has indicated to me that there may be a few other (smaller) new things at CanJam as well.

The Headcase Stax thread
Something seems pretty odd about that. The outer knob appears to only engage the silver portion of the shaft leaving the brass colored portion to be controlled by the rear knob. Since they're both the same splined design it seems to me the only reason for the set screw would be to keep the knob from being pulled off, not to allow it to turn the shaft.

Those both look like press on knobs.

Sounds like a great deal Mike and I bet that it makes a heck of an HD800 amp.

Haven't quite sold my soul just yet.

Did I talk the guy down low enough for you? P.s. I have some tubes for it you can have until you decide to sell it.

Looks to be about par for the course, glad to know that they didnt penalize you for their absurd packing routine.

I hope she feels better soon, I'm sure it's tough on you and your wife as well.

How's she doing Mike?

Grado HF-2 thread
Rewire could be pretty rough. If, say, the cups happen to be aluminum those are a bitch to get off and I really don't feel like burning my hands. You really need work gloves to work on the aluminum grados. Wood, plastic, maybe, but all the same I'm not hauling a cable out there for that.

What did you do today?
No, I need to drink more and get my liver in shape or I'll be a one-drink wonder in LA.

Grado HF-2 thread
Now that it's out in the open Todd told me this and I told him I fully supported it. Any one involved in planning an event of this magnitude deserves some special treatment. And Al, sure I can do some quick snip/snip solder work if someone has an iron and a multi-meter. I'd be happy to do it for Todd to if he wants to have a balanced pair to use with amps. I can bring supplies if someone lets me know how many of what kind they want to do so they don't look like hack jobs.

If I may be allowed to say so you and I fracken rule the school at this one.

What did you do today?
Between yesterday evening and this morning I spent 5 hours mowing the lawn. Followed that up with re-mulching the front flower beds which took another 4 hours. I'm spent. Only 2 units of alcohol consumed so far, clearly I'm way behind schedule.

Grado HF-2 thread
I don't see why it should be a nightmare, it just needs to have some order rather than first come first serve. If you ordered in the first 20 and you're going to be at CanJam you can pick it up provided you bring your receipt. Once those folks are taken care and assuming there are any left (since I'm assuming there are less than 20 of the first 20 available to the masses) he just goes down the order list until 20 are gone. Everyone else gets their order shipped in order or purchase after the event.

Happy Birthday Pars!

Grado HF-2 thread
Your assumption that she knows is laughable, that's lesson #1. Dan/Mike, no woody or recable plans just yet for the HF-2. Heck, I still haven't recabled my HF-1s so I don't see a huge need there. The 1/4" plug is unacceptable though and if someone has a soldering iron there I'll absolutely chop the plug and reterm w/in 10 minutes of ownership.

Grado HF-2 thread
I wonder if the masses will cry if the first thing I do at Canjam is lop off the stock plug and solder on a 4-pin XLR?
