I don’t even have a table but this was a must
So this happened.
Im downscaling my HT setup and these are the new downscaled rear channels…
From 3 way in to 2 way but… they are exactly the same sized.
Have 10W less power play 1db louder and 1Hz difference at FR.
I might have misunderstood the meaning of downscaling lol
(well the main speaker are on sale so, the old rear speakers will be future Mains )
ps. i did clean the plate after few pretests and cable installments.
Not the player but the stand.
3D Modelled in Freecad by yours truly and CNC machined by a company in Sheffield UK from walnut.
Sits on 4 isolate feet and metal caps are cheap escutcheon blanks.
Scored a pair of ISN EST50s for a great price. I’ve been wanting to try these bad boys out for quite some time, but something else always came up first. Then I saw these for sale and went for it. Looking forward to them showing up.
I also bought a pair of Sennheiser HD6XX to use as a modification platform so we’ll see how that goes. I have some ideas for sure.
Not an HP guy, sold my HD660’s because I wasn’t really sure I liked ‘em even on OTL…thinking the 650 or 6xx might be a better option kinda scooping out a pair of Beyer T1 gen 2’s instead … Enjoy the modification process though man
Woo! First new headphone purchase in over two years. Hifiman Arya Organic.
Of all Hifiman’s I’ve tried, this one has the most enjoyable tuning. Though I haven’t tried the Arya Stealth.
I have heard nothing but good about these. I have looked hard at Arya’s over the years, but the cost pushed me away and I ended up getting the HE6se V2’s. The V2’s are great, if you have the right amp, which I luckily did.
But now the Organics are getting praised by everybody. Be sure to post your thoughts.
I don’t do open backs enough to justify big bucks of the Arya’s, but I still love the HE400SE. I think I paid $110 for them.
Didn’t really purchase them, but I am being presented with my own signature line of cymbals today. I’ve never had a signature linenwith a major manufacturer so this is pretty huge for me. I’m WAY stoked to say the least. They still won’t be for sale to consumers for a few months, but still… I’m all giddy
idk why pricing for these is all over the place I got mine new for $120ish, yet AKG direct sells them overpriced af
Tungsten are still probably a week out from being delivered but so far the amp is great. Still need to try it in triode mode but in ultra linear, it’s pretty resolving for a tube amp.
New headphone stand and a 4.4 cable for the SJY Moonlight.
Didn’t buy today, but did receive today. Yet another Hart cable, this time for Meze 109 Pro’s.
And of course a day before I receive it, Hart announces a fourth birthday sale with 20% off. Story of my life.
I got the Hifiguides discount anyway. And it turns out that I really didn’t need them as the regular Hart 3.5mm cable fits just fine.
I bought a 2004 4Runner to build a rockcrawler from since I sold my last one. I build them, sell them, and then build a new one as a project.
I also purchased a InfiRay Outdoor Rico HD 1280 2X 75mm night vision scope used at a ridiculously good price in lieu of the cash owed to me for whooping ass on a bet at the range. This thing is about as bad ass as a civilian can get these days. I can’t wait to go up to my ranch on Sunday and see what I can do with it.
I finally took the plunge and upgraded my solid state amp…The funny thing is I was really close to pulling the trigger on the Mjolnir 3 but they are on back order until November…It was a day or two later that Drop announced the V222 for $949. They will pair very good with my Atrium…
I am also going to upgrade my dac…The obvious pairing from what I have read is the BF 2/64…I do have a question for the Violectric owners here…Have any of you guys paired them with a Gumby and how did it sound?
