I think it is simply a health and cleanliness thing that keeps them from refilling. I did not try the Aotearoa. There were too many new beers, I had to drive, and it's been a long Kasteel Rouge drought, so I had to give it a pass. If it's there next week I'll give it a go. Right now, it's 11:15 PM and I'm enjoying some Hell's Black before bed. A wonderful brew.

Voltron Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) Just received a matched quad of Mullard EL34s to get the BHse up and running! Following from recommendations by spritzer and elephas, does anyone know of a good source for NOS Mullard xf1/2 Blackburn or Philips xf3/4? Edited October 25, 2010 by Voltron
spritzer Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 XF2's show up on ebay all the time in matched quads. When I was looking into this a couple of years ago, there were a few sellers who knew what they were doing when doing the matching. Dunno how it is today though...
mrarroyo Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 Well, I did not buy it (yet) but I have on loan the production version of the HE6 as well as the prototype. I have sent a PM to some of the local members to see if there is an interest in listening to them. On Saturday or Sunday I would gladly drive to Fort Lauderdale perhaps a bit further north. Anyway pictures are available at: Picasa Web Albums - 10943715404801124... - HE-6 Orthodyn... The final version sounds IMO much better, they are easier to drive, look better, and seem to be a bit lighter. They still exert a lot of pressure but thankfully they seem to have an steel band under the leather which can be bent to suit. Cheers.

luvdunhill Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 ZOTAC ZBOX-HD-AD01 and Seagate Momentus XT HDD. My first AMD processor in quite a while (Neo X2 L325)... gotta buy local I guess. For what it is, it has nice specs.

HeadphoneAddict Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 Heard it at RMAF, gave them my email info, and got a discount code RMAF50. I got the impression that the code expires very soon, but was not told that I can't post it. Listening to the Rolling Stones "Love in Vain" with and without Amarra was remarkable (loved the Focal speakers they used). It was a live recording and not off the "Let it Bleed" album - they started to play, messed up and joked around, and then started again until completion. I want to find a copy of that particular performance. So, I need to email them back for that info. A couple of things that I noticed was that the guitar to the right of center sounded like it was coming more from the right speaker without Amarra turned on; but with Amarra it came from behind the wall and just to the inside of the right speaker, sounding much more transparent and on stage. The vocal that was to the left of center became more transparent and realistic, and more on stage. It went from sounding like a very good recording to sounding more realistic and live - the speakers totally disappeared. I have no idea how much if any EQ they used, and of course their gear was much better than mine, but I'm hoping for similar improvements when using my Macbook Pro as transport. I just don't expect overall performance to be on the same level without a bigger investment in my system.
