They look crazy, but I'm so far past the point of looking crazy that it no longer even registers. Password, the moment you hear them you'll forget about it. I gay-ron-tee.

They weren't dead quiet out out of the apache, but the noise was never remotely intrusive with music playing, and wasn't really noticeable between songs unless you were listening for it. It was enough that I wouldn't keep the thing on my desk or sidetable for that purpose, as fantastic as it sounded. In any case, I think a balanced IEM amp is in order.

SUCK. DOUBLE SUCK TRIPLE WIN!

My wife has one of these: Admittedly, hers is LES BLAK, but it really snaps around to the correct hour. Neat trick.

Gay mermen tattoo is so played out, Eejit. Did you notice the goat beard and pikachu tail on that queenicorn? I contend it is still the awesomer of the two. Edit: Just noticed the dick fish in the background of the mermen tattoo. Touche'

The universals he had at RMAF were like modified customs, but that's not to say he couldn't make one if demand warranted it. I wouldn't imagine he'll skimp on universals entirely, Dusty, though you may never see the JH13 in a universal, much like you never saw the UE11 in a universal.

That could be fixed... try one of these: I meant the bad taste, of course. This tattoo is in excellent taste.

Side note: that cat looks like it is about to push a watermelon out of a lake.

Isn't the best way to find out who has a piece of gear just to post a negative review of it and see who responds?

I got the figure from Jerry Harvey, who told me he added a 4dB bump at 60hz to accentuate the kick drum. By 115hz it's completely flat again, and more or less maintains that for the rest of the spectrum. Honestly, I just took his word on it. I assume he's told the same story to others.

^^ Exactly.

"Perfect" is not necessarily "flat" in all cases. After all, the bump is deliberate.

I think the cords are mass-produced, but I know how to solder, and lots of other folks do here as well.

I figured you weren't able to catch the mailman what with your advanced years, so I am ready to make the best of it.

Don't give her an address, Chris.

amen to that. My moth is back on speaker/grado duty where it belongs today.

not to mention way hotter

no need to be sorry, Larry, but I have witnesses to you saying you preferred your k1k on the moth at the show. What changed?

I'd have bought two. Well, I did that, so I'd have bought two more.

it also makes it possible to get all the way up to 20khz, which seems to be more important than I would have thought. Maybe not, but something is going on.

If it makes you all feel better, I was given a free t-shirt for selling you all out.

I asked Jerry just this, and I tried hard to remember exactly what he told me. This is the first three-way designed with every driver doubled, and apparently doubling the drivers is extremely important. Doubling them halves their distortion in some important characteristic, and lowers the transient response time of each driver. The JH13 are twice as fast as the JH11, which is less than twice as fast as the JH5. There's magic in driver doubling. So, to your question, line array might not be a bad way to think about it.

Well they're running a sub 1-week wait right now, as per Jaime, so hopefully that day will come sooner than later.

That sounds like something of a win/win.

Relapse? Doug, did you forget how they sounded? You're +1 DAC right now, man. This opportunity has been dropped in your lap.
