Yup, the HD250 Linear (not to be mistaken with the Linear II) is a good closed headphone. In the HD600 type of balanced sound. Very light and comfortable. Hard to drive though. I hate the K550 too. Sounds like plastic.

Age is improving your taste

But but but you said you didn't like black front plates OK, make another one for me then

As if you could read my mind I wouldn't mind getting a pair of those sweet ole Sigmas too.

Want! It'd be perfect if I can get some normal bias Lambda. Moreover you don't like black and I love it.

Supertramp - Crime of the Century [2014 Deluxe Edition] It's been remastered and Ken Scott, the original engineer, has overseen the process. It sounds damn good, as good as one of those "audiophile" vinyl releases I got years ago.

I don't care much about things, I could leave my house from a fire carrying just three or four items, but some things coming from people you love cannot be sold. I wouldn't sell a few of my watches either. Thanks for the link to the dark gray dial Datejust. I like the linen dial, silver dial or ceramic white ones, with the classical ribbed bezel and SS bracelet too. I can wear leather, but Jubilee fits the watch better IMO.

More than the price, which isn't precisely low but still in the "affordable" side of things, it's their availability in good working condition what I think would make it hard to find and own.

Absolutely!

I love that linen dial Datejust. One of these days

Best wishes, guys. Stay safe and warm. That's scary.

Hola, Fernando

Last Tuesday we attended this very same concert by the Simon Bolívar Orchestra conducted by Gustavo Dudamel, playing Beethoven's 5th and Wagner excerpts from the Ring: http://live.philharmoniedeparis.fr/concert/1029288.html Now live from Paris in 18 minutes.

Belated Happy birthday, guys. I wish it was a great one

Happy birthday, Mike!!!! I wish you enjoy a really great day

Yay, Grahame

Happy Birthday!!!!

I don't think I can rate it compared to the stuff you own. I don't have/ have listened to any of those devices. All I can say is that I like it at the same level I like the iTouch g3 (large 30 pins output) feeding the PicoSlim to drive the ESW10. With the X10 sounds great too. I loaned my HD600 to a friend, they're coming back in a few days, then I'll be able to get a better scope on its headphone output.

I got a Pono thing when the kickstarter opened. Got one of the Herbie Hancock artist series which included an additional SDHC 64GB card with a couple of his albums in hi-res. It arrived a few weeks ago directly from China. I've loaded it with a lot of normal 16/44 FLAC albums and some hi-res 24/96 (mostly vinyl rips) too. The thing sounds pretty good, the headphone out is more than decent and drives quite well the ESW10jpn which I use more frequently when travelling or on call. The line out feeding the "small" speakers system is good too. I don't regret the purchase.

I'm sorry for the delay. Happy Birthday, John and Frank!!! I wish you had a great celebration at the level you both deserve.

Best wishes, Tom. I hope the move ends as smooth as it started and you can join your wife soon.

Best wishes, Tom, get well soon.

The horror

Bravo!!!!
