I take it that you can't have stuff like that delivered to your office? They guys in my office joke that I'm on a first name basis with all the major carriers.

Pfffft, I have a DAC that's 1 of 1.

Thanks for the tip, I guess I'll try my hand at braiding this weekend.

NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!

Please PM me for this address.

A bunch of parts from Markertek for cables and 50' of HGA's best silver wire.

Patrick's newest?

I'm a whore but I ain't no ho!

Sweet, now if only those damn 325s would sell!

Yeah, I'm still on a 3G 20gig, which is woefully too small and sooooooooo black and white.

The new classic is probably my next Ipod. Although I'll be keeping a watchful eye on the refurb store since it would stand to reason that the old 80gig model should be less than the new especially if it's a refurb.

Thanks man, that's pretty darn cheap!

Any tips for threading the wire through the insulation? Handmade makes it sound like anything over a couple of feet could be problematic unless you upsize the covering. I only need 1M interconnects so I'm torn whether or not to go with the 20ga teflon vs. 22ga to use with 22ga wire. Thanks again.

I'm building a couple of cables for a friend and he'd like them to be made of solid silver. My first thought was to buy some of Homegrown Audio's prebraided silver wire. It's not the cheapest but it is the easiest route to good looking silver cables in my opinion. And for what's it worth I've done the google thing and seen some stuff like VH Audio offers which is actually more than HGA. The first couple of pages of links that I found yielded nothing useful so here at am, at the mercy of your help. My only other experience buying bulk silver wire (from a GB on head-fi) wasn't particularly good so I'm wondering if any one wants to point me in the direction of a good supplier. Anything in the 22 to 24ga should work just fine and either pre-braided or bulk would be something I'd consider.

Carrot juice does that?

Let's hope I make it. Right now I'm trying to figure out if I want to push my luck and go to FLA at the end of October and then try to get away with going to NYC two weeks later. That'd be like the Fonz trying to jump the shark while riding a shark.

IIRC TTVJ closed them out at $550 or something like that.

All I've seen is north of $1000, which pains me since I turned down a new pair at $500ish two years ago.

[me=nate]double crosses posty off of "people to help" list, also makes note that he is surprised that posty knew the word "nefarious"[/me]

Fair enough, let me know when I release my first product, I can't wait for the checks to start rolling in.

In the words of Reks, pfft. That listing is 100% in compliance with any and all stated rules of Head-Fi. Since there are no rules governing such actions at Head-case I had nothing to follow and did not list them here.

oh NOS!!!1! The cat's out of the bag now, ain't it?

Congrats man, I'm glad it finally all worked out. And even with the beta22 out the M3 is no slouch. Technically speaking it has superior specifications in several categories and is way overkill for headphones. Certainly nothing to be scoffed at.

It looks like the world's biggest stone shaped by the ocean.

Well, it would really depend on what Hirsch's opinion is of their sound. If the mods made them decent someone searching for a closed can might be interested. Can't say I'd be, but others might.
