Only 300 decks of the 30 model in 20 years? That's really low, I wasn't expecting that. However this "new" luxury market driven by the several millions of ultra wealthy guys with no idea on what's value, might allow them to sell the same 15 decks/year for 2x, 3x, or possibly higher, the current price. They just need the right ads in the right places and convincing the buyers that there's a shortage and a waiting list. If it doesn't work they can get back to the old business model which didn't seem to make them rich either.

I'm afraid they'll succeed, there are way too many rich fools in the planet, they just need to grease the right machinery.

Very Happy Birthday, Todd!

Elekit TU-8600R 300B SET amp/headphone amp
Torpedo replied to Jon L's topic in Headphone Amplification
I read the review. Please, by all means let us know how do those Klipsch perform. The world needs more efficient and sensitive devices. And people, probably. -
Elekit TU-8600R 300B SET amp/headphone amp
Torpedo replied to Jon L's topic in Headphone Amplification
Planars? OMG those are usually hard to drive bitches. Being headphones the Elekit should be more than enough. What about the speakers, what are yours? For Stax the bottleneck is the transformer, so I can imagine the results. I wish I had 98db/w/m speakers or higher sensitivity to try a 300B SET. -
Based on the new Tesla thing? They nailed it, it's equally horrible.

I've learned today that Mariss Jansons died the 30th at 76 from cardiovascular disease. He was expected in Madrid to conduct the Bayerische Rundfunk next January

This price scheme isn't ready in Europe yet In Spain they're offering these same plans, keeping mp3 and being a lot more expensive. Until they don't drop them a bit I'm staying with Tidal.

Buckshot LeFonque - Buckshot LeFonque (1994) One of those albums reminding me how much I missed during my residency years, and how little the music has evolved in the last 25 years.

I had got in my "watch later" list at Youtube a video by Glenn Gould speaking about the fugue. The video got removed for © issues, but some clever chinese guy got it uploaded elsewhere. Were you interested: https://www.bilibili.com/video/av11601100/

Stay safe. Best wishes.

Battery lasts way less since the iOS 13 "upgrade" in my iPhone SE, being 13.1.3 the worst. The iPad stopped being eligible for iOS upgrades long ago. It's a bliss. I wish Apps wouldn't need to be updated so frequently.

They've just evolved shapes mimicking Richard Mille's, which OTOH is another shitty hyperexpensive tasteless manufacturer focused on tasteless new rich customers. To their recognition (Hublot's) goes being one of the first labels to make horrible stuff for the ignorant wealthy. To each one their own, I guess

Are these the same one hit wonder Korgis from the 80's who released the "Everybody's got to learn sometime"? I'm listening to a recent bootleg recording of the Brad Mehldau Trio Hyogo Performing Arts Center Kobelco Grand Hall Nishinomiya, Hyogo pref., Japan May 30, 2019 No front cover art to show, sorry.

^ Don't, please. I don't like the new AL&S either. It's trying to be classic and elegant while adding modern features, and I don't like how they're mixing.
