philodox Posted April 27, 2006 Report Posted April 27, 2006 There was a pair of modded K340s at the sunday Nat Meet that were bassless out of my Melos - it isn't the Melos' fault, honest, because the new Grados with flats had SERIOUS slammin' deep impactful bass.LOL... you should have listened to them out of one of the balanced amps James. Your Melos didn't drive them very well at all.

The Melos definitely didn't bring the Juice. For some reason I keep getting amps like Pinkie and the Melos that sound great with Grados (my thing) but suck with AKGs and Sonys. They just are, blah.
philodox Posted April 27, 2006 Report Posted April 27, 2006 It did sound great with Grado's, that is for sure. Must put out a lot of current. I was most impressed by your Lambda's though... especially taking into account the deal you got on them.

I was most impressed by your Lambda's though... especially taking into account the deal you got on them. Yep I guess folks got tipped off when they saw the box I kept the Lambdas in - what can I say, the deals are there if you look under every rock! BTW the Ultrasone designer really dug the Lambdas too, he was actually getting nostalgic about it. The month I got that rig was a tight one financially and I literally was sweating when I pulled it off because I just paid for some HF-1s too - I was in the doghouse for a good 3 months after that, it was scary. But now I look back and think it was worth it for having a nice solid change of pace rig to go with the Grados!
philodox Posted April 27, 2006 Report Posted April 27, 2006 Yeah, I sort of wish I had him listen to the K340's on a balanced amp... I think he thought that was just what they sounded like.

philodox Posted April 27, 2006 Report Posted April 27, 2006 No big deal... if he liked them he might have taken them to the washroom. And I don't want to think about what he does in there. EDIT: Don't get me wrong, that guy was great... just kidding around. [That whole 'pain thing' was hilarious!]
