hd25-1 impressions thread
I was pretty surprised when I got an email notification of your post. There was a time when I was on here daily, but I haven't hung around head-fi in quite some time. Hard to believe, but I started this thread approx. 9 years, 8 months ago!! I'm floored that it's still going after all...- Graz

Pictures of your computer rigs! Post them here!
Quote: I bought the 28" monitors last year when I was living in Taipei...I found a place that was selling them at like $300-350 USD each. Individual monitor res is 1920 x 1200...so I use 3840 x 2400 wallpapers to span across all 4. Computer specs: Intel 2.83GHz Quad core (Q9550) 8...- Graz

Pictures of Your Portable Rig [Part XIII]
rig under construction...just waiting for a new lod from qusp. should be decent once all the pieces are in place. the pieces: 32gb touch > lod > sr71 > ue11-pro gotta say, attaching a touch to an amp (especially one with a significant front faceplate lip like the sr71) isn't exactly trivial...- Graz

Just a bit of constructive criticism...
I want to preface this by saying, I like ALO products. I've purchased one imod LOD, and am on the verge of purchasing another standard LOD for other uses. OK...so here it is (and this is just my personal opinion...others may disagree)... I hope I don't offend anyone, but I seriously don't...- Graz

My slice of headphone listening heaven: I may have found an ideal amp for the AKG K1000
Thank you so much for sharing your heart rending story! And let me just say: "Oh dear god no!" Did you have to wait a whole 3 working days to get shipping confirmation from UPS on the first shipment? Honestly, some people these days. <rolls eyes>- Graz

Well, all my gear's in order now: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f15/pi...ml#post4469027 ...and I gotta say, I don't know why I ever worried about this. The SR-71 drives the ue11's with no problems whatsoever...not having gain choices is a non-issue. The thing is spooky-dead-quiet with plenty...- Graz

Undressing the Diablo
Nice amp and nice pics... But I have to say, the solder quality actually looks rather poor. Several components are askew, and there's uncleaned flux everywhere. Obviously, it's hand-soldered, but I can't say that it's particularly well done...certainly not in line with the cost of this amp...- Graz

First Foray into Headphone Amps.
So much to consider... - Every amp has it's own distinctive flavor...few fall into that "transparent, straight-wire-with-gain" category (the HeadAmp line comes closest imo)... - You're using AT-SQ5 cans now...but if you're already looking at an amp, chances are, those cans aren't the end of...- Graz

ue11-->SR-71
So, I just dropped the cash for some ue11's (ear impressions went in the mail yesterday)...should have 'em back in a couple weeks... The plan is to go: 5.5g imod-->SR-71 (which I already have)-->ue11 The question... ...is there any point in "upgrading" from the SR-71? The size reduction...- Graz
