REVIEW: Astell & Kern AKR01: It's A Legal Addiction!
Bought these on a whim actually the other day to replace my SM64s that bit the big one (unfortunate encounter with my washing machine). They're easily my favorite universals I've heard at this price point, maybe even better than my first customs (LiveWires TRIPS). They really do sound...- Dev Avidon

Detroit - Ann Arbor meet. Let's make it happen... Again!
I'd love to come if I can make the date - I'm in town for the 7th and for the 14th, but I'm leaving the 16th back for Brooklyn. Could bring LCD-2s, K1000s, some cool cablestuffs and maybe even a super-secret prototype amp I'm working on :)- Dev Avidon

NEW information on JH-3a
Quote: My understanding is that the 90 degree connectors won't actually fit in the inputs comfortably without impeding controls/other inputs, which is why we don't use them. I may just send one to Warp to see, and if they work, we'll absolutely offer the 3A cable with them. Certainly...- Dev Avidon

Attention Chicago/Detroit/Grand Rapids/Northern Indiana Head-fiers
Jim and I might be able to make it, but we're driving into Michigan on the 19th, so it could be a little tight. If we do manage to make it, I'll probably have: Black Lion mod RME UFX dac. DACS Headlite2 HPA. Bass Heavy AKG K1000 (early S/N) Recabled Sony SA-5K (BlackFrost balanced)...- Dev Avidon

How much difference does a portable amp make?
I'm not sure which generation of iPod your 80 gig is, but if it's a 5.5g video or earlier, you may actually want to keep it if you're primarily concerned with the sound quality. Starting with the iPod classic, Apple switched to Cirrus Logic for their internal converters, and the general...- Dev Avidon

Reply to review by 'dev avidon' on item 'Apple iPod Earphones Headphones for iPod Nano, Touch & Classic'
"A wise man will spend neither too much nor too little." There are many things you could offer to give me for free that I would respectfully decline, these being one of them. There is, no doubt, a value to them as many who don't care about the quality of the sound they listen to are perfectly...- Dev Avidon

Brooklyn Meet Impressions July 30, 2011
The lovely missus (who's name is actually spelled Dru, believe it or not), is going to be making a head-fi account and posting some pics today, but I figured having had a little time to recover and digest, I might just share a few of my thoughts beyond simply feeling ecstatic that everyone... -

Quote: I'm really sorry to hear that - that's incredibly disappointing... I love my neighborhood, and I've never had any problems like that before, so needless to say that's heartbreaking to hear. If there's anything I can do to rectify things for you, please let me know! On a... -
Brooklyn Meet Impressions (July 30th)
Figured I'd get this rolling for pics and what have you. I'm exhausted, so I'll be posting more tomorrow, but I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out and making this such an awesome meet. Great gear and great company (and great food, if I do say so on behalf of my phenomenal wife). ...- Dev Avidon

Brooklyn Meet
Ok folk, with Saturday nearly upon us, just wanted to let people know that, as there have been a couple of drop-outs, if you checked this thread, wanted to come, but saw the cap, odds are pretty good there will be space, so by all means come on down! Don't forget to e-mail for address -...- Dev Avidon

Brooklyn Meet
Going to open up shop at 10, but you can drop in any time you like (though we're probably going to start wrapping up around 5:30 or so). Still trying to work out doing the free show, but it would be 6-7 if it does happen.- Dev Avidon
