NotoriousBIG_PJ Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 The k340's would have looked better had you had "bling bling" written on them instead. Biggie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postjack Posted August 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 This is beautiful. agreed! i love the new look. Also I agree with Biggie, but I would extend that to any headphone would look better with "bling bling" on it. I'm going to get a razor and carve it into my RS-1.

Dusty Chalk Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 I likely would have done without the mother of pearl for silly man-reasons. Only if you aren't confident with your sexuality. I think the contrast would make me look more manly. That said, I would have gone for black opal, myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philodox Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 Now that might look nice... the shiny iridescent opal on the bloodwood looks distinctly girly, which is where my comment came from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 ... the shiny iridescent opal on the bloodwood looks distinctly girly, which is where my comment came from. Yeah, that's how I understood it, and what I was responding to, when I made my "contrast" comment. See, the way it works is, you can have little girly accents around, but depending how you carry yourself, you end up appearing more manly in contrast to those accents.

Well, Larry actually told me that he thought it was a nice "girl touch" he added for me with the litte dot. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrice Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 The k340's would have looked better had you had "bling bling" written on them instead. Biggie.

Salt Peanuts Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Am I the only one that doesn't like the SR-007 Mk2 look? The chmpagne brown mesh crashes with the black, IMO. I much prefer the original look, followed by BL version (pads, cable, and headband are balck). i would have gone for a chrome human skull, to match my scythe. http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/2998/deathht3.jpg Nice one, Reks. I may now how to go change my avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 This is beautiful. OMG, I thought you guys were pulling my leg. This really exists! I thought it was a photochop or something. [me=Dusty Chalk]laughs at self.[/me] Huzzah for Stax. It's called the SR-007BL: No, wait, the US version doesn't have the black rims. Dagnabit... All the same, now they need to do the 4070. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepak Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 The MS2i is a sweet headphone. Nice score Jack. Wish you could have done a comparison with the HP-2 though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepak Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 i can do that comparison, if anyone wants to send me a pair of MS2is Doesn't Earl have a few pairs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
postjack Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 The MS2i is a sweet headphone. Nice score Jack. Wish you could have done a comparison with the HP-2 though To Jacob: yes, I do like them quite a bit! I'm not so far removed from the HP-2 that I can't do somewhat of a comparison. Keep in mind these are based on just a couple hours of listening, but the MS2i is NOT the poor man's HP-2. The HP-2 really is in a class all by itself, and the MS2i does not share a similar signature. What the MS2i has going for it is amazing bass and great mids. On a couple tracks its lost control of the highs, but this control loss is nowhere near as shrill as the 325i (if my memory serves me, its been a while). I listened with bowls for a bit, and it sounded fantastic, but bowls bug me so I quickly switched to flats. The sound is not congested, but the soundstage is teeny tiny, as I've found is standard with SR series Grados. best part is still the bass. Strangely, their bass reminds me of the GS1K's bass, but nowhere near as superb. I sometimes find myself yearning for that visceral GS1K bass.

n_maher Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 In the words of Reks, pfft. That listing is 100% in compliance with any and all stated rules of Head-Fi. Since there are no rules governing such actions at Head-case I had nothing to follow and did not list them here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

postjack Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Then you can post in this thread and call me a LIAR i'm betting that the pair you listened to was NOT broken in and you are "mistaken" about what the dealer told you. how can you really know dude. also check your upstream, no doubt. werd. also: [me=postjack]is pleased that his plan to MoT all DIY is proceeding according to plan. what looked like a simple link to assist in a sale was actually a nefarious attempt to make it so all DIY people can't talk about DIY in the DIY forum since they are improving products and making the moolah off of them which is wrong.[/me] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
