I'd really like to but right now I've just got so much going on that I can't deal with trying to coordinate getting molds taken, shipping the headphones off, etc., etc.
Dude, you drive an Audio, get a phatbox you slacker. Less storage, way fracken cooler. I had one in my S4 and it was the tits.
And I guess with my purchase of the devil, I mean Zune, I'm officially off this team.
And I'd counter that most of the really hard stuff lacks a bit when it comes production value so searching for some ideal headphones that are only going to point out the glaring flaws in the recording seems fruitless.
If you haven't bothered to amp the 650s properly I think you're going about this the wrong way. When driven by something with some real balls I don't take issue with much the HD650s do, and at a fraction of the cost of the HP-2s and L3Ks which are going to take every bit the amplifier that the 650s will to sound great.
As far as I remember KG was promised some parts by a manufacturer who has yet to come up with them. I think there are threads here that mention it but I can't get them to surface via the search.
As far as I know it's just one of their Pesante Dissipante cases with a heavy front panel and optional handles. You'd just have to email them for more information, assuming this is what you're talking about.
See, now there's your reason for a beta22. The beta absolutely rocks with the HD650s, I can only imagine what it'll be like with the HD(insertnumberhere).
Jay,
If that beta was setup for a gain of 5 single-ended it has an effective gain of 10 balanced. And I hope Steve didn't have his beta setup for a gain of 11, jebus I can't imagine what would need a gain of 22. Touch the knob on that amp and Grado's would explode.
Oh, I mean when you get it back. Then you can say, "Look, I just had this thing fixed and now it's dead again." If this was the first time it'd had an issue I'd never suggest such a thing but given the craptacular history I'd say it's warranted.
