Dusty Chalk Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Stax SRD7mkII Jesus, man, when you fall off the wagon, you fall hard.
n_maher Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Jesus, man, when you fall off the wagon, you fall hard. Bah, this is a no lose purchase. I bought it at a very fair price and if I can't locate a suitable pair of headphones (read: affordable) I'll pass it along for the same price and be no worse for the wear.
Salt Peanuts Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 A bottle of Diet Coke, even though I pushed the button for grape soda. This is the second time the work vending machine has done this on me this month.
grawk Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 2 new watch straps, one orange and one olive, for my daily wear watch. The stingray strap I'd had was falling apart, so I went less formal for it now.
deepak Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Thanks deepak, that would be sweet. Might actually give me time enough to build the monoblocks that will be powering the SRD7. No prob. I think B22 + K1000 will hold me over while they're gone Bah, this is a no lose purchase. I bought it at a very fair price and if I can't locate a suitable pair of headphones (read: affordable) I'll pass it along for the same price and be no worse for the wear. If you decide to sell it can I be first in line? edit: what monoblocks, Bottlehead?
Salt Peanuts Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Eminent Tech LFT-8b speakers. I had put in the deposit for them several weeks ago and they're finally shipping! I should have them sometime next week. Of course, I don't know where I'm going to put them since I was hoping I would have my own house by now.
n_maher Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 edit: what monoblocks, Bottlehead? Icepower monoblocks.
deepak Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Icepower monoblocks. Jebus that is going to be a lot of power
Salt Peanuts Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Icepower monoblocks. Nice! I was wondering what came of your inquiry into ICE modules.
n_maher Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Jebus that is going to be a lot of power 170W/ch with balanced inputs. They are some of the lower power modules that they sell but more than plenty for what I have planned.
Dusty Chalk Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Jesus, people buying high-end speakers and amps and headphones. I think the last pair of shoes I bought were $12, and the last non-shoes purchase was some $2.99 Corningware uber-mugs. Hey, boom -- you wanna outsource your non-soldering and breaking things to me some? I work cheap for you.
Dusty Chalk Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Planars, huh? Good luck with that (it is my understanding that those need room).
Salt Peanuts Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Planars, huh? Good luck with that (it is my understanding that those need room). These aren't supposed be as finicky as regular planars, but we'll see. I'm trying to decide if I want to unpack them or leave them be (for ease of transport) until it's time for us to move. Oh, and I just talked to my fiancee and the speakers and stands are appearently already at our apartment. It appears that Eminent Tech sent the speakers directly to my place.
hungrych Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 send them to me, i'll babysit them for you. ATTN Salty: Keep your speakers away from this man! There's no telling what horrible things will happen to them in his vicinity.
VPI Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Thrice's old Rockhopper KGSS should be waiting for me when I get to my new place up in New Jersey. Should be a worthwhile upgrade over the old 007t that I have been using with the Omega IIs. Pics borrowed from Nate.

Should be a worthwhile upgrade over the old 007t that I have been using with the Omega IIs. Pics borrowed from Nate. Where did the KGSS PCBs come from? And IIRC, did I also see BH PCBs? I don't ever remember seeing a group buy or anything for these on HF?
hungrych Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Well the X-ls encores were out of stock and I didn't feel like waiting a month, so I got these instead (just for you jb)
postjack Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 does kef use metal woofers? nice looking.
spritzer Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Where did the KGSS PCBs come from? And IIRC, did I also see BH PCBs? I don't ever remember seeing a group buy or anything for these on HF? It's the standard Headamp "Hybrid PSU" board used in both the old BH and the KGSS. The amp board is also from Headamp so I'm guessing Justin sold them to him.
Fungi Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 Ryobi drill and stepped bits. Although I am no circular hole cutter tech.
JBLoudG20 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 Well the X-ls encores were out of stock and I didn't feel like waiting a month, so I got these instead (just for you jb) :prettyprincess: :prettyprincess: :prettyprincess: Pure, unadulterated WIN. I have the previous generation Q1=iQ3. Great speaker. Got me to purchase the iQ9's.
JBLoudG20 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Report Posted April 25, 2008 does kef use metal woofers? nice looking. The latest iteration of the Uni-Q array uses a titanium woofer.
