OK, dogwalk discovery time (promise not to get out of control this time, serious postings only:)
(today brought to you by DX90 out to ALO National-do think the amping improves it a bit, even though it does well on its own), to Shure 1540s)



One of the great alto sax players, real monster, great blues...


Time for lawn mowing, Ety's a-ready, maybe more later...

My friend has literally shorted out cables on all of his IEMs. So he's looking for a pair around $100 that has detachable cables. Any suggestions?

Anyone jumping on the pre-order of T-Peos Altone 200?
Pre-order limited to 100 and ends July 12: http://www.head-fi.org/t/724471/t-peos-announce-releasing-altone200-and-start-preorder-limitedly
 
pre-order $105+20 shipping = $125
Full price $125+20 shipping = $145
 
I have The Astrotec AX-35 as my first hybrid, but was considering this because it has a dual BA instead of a single BA on the AX-35.
 
From the introduction post by H2OFidelity, it's similar to the H300 sound but fixed the treble peak. Some reviewers are starting to receive their unit, but no published reviews yet...

Only a $20 savings for the pre-order so it ain't much, i can wait it out for mo' impressions to kick in to see what's up. The initial wave is always mo' hyped up than usual so....
 
Same as with the DUNU DN2000s and H300s during their initial hype but after some tyme, it doesn't seem to be that much of a game changer for their price as it was made out to be so.....
 
Patience is a virtue in this hobby it seems.

Here are links for the HA-FXD/FRD/FXC tips on Amazon.co.jp (sold by third party merchants only at the time of this posting). You will likely need to use a shipping forwarder.
 
Black:
EP-FX8S-B (Small)
EP-FX8M-B (Medium)
EP-FX8L-B (Large)
 
White:
EP-FX8S-W (Small)
EP-FX8M-W (Medium)
EP-FX8L-W (Large)

Thanks PeterOLai.!!  my last order from amazon.co.jp got lost in cyberspace and i never received my spiral dot tips from them. which other forwarder could you recommend??

Not sure which forwarder you used for your Spiral Dot tips, but I haven't had any problems with Tenso as my forwarder, although all the stuff I've purchased in the past were from Amazon.co.jp direct rather than any third party merchants.

Hey, Blue, I've used BuySmartJapan without problems...not sure they are priced like Tenso, but difference is small, and easier to use (for me)

I bought the spirals from amazon jp and used Tenso Japan (http://www.jshoppers.com/forward/). not to be confused with the more popular Tenso.com. it's currently a bit cheaper than Tenso.com. it was processed pretty fast. hope this helps.
