My DT990s died without a warning...... It was in a bad state (even after it was fixed..... the people at Beyer did nothing) going to take it back and fix it, should still be covered in warranty (hopefully)

For what it's worth, my Anime Thread-built Project-H DIY DAC/amp combo has arrived safely.



So far I feel like this is the first time most of my gear feels... substantial. If that makes sense.

Oh wow... I don't remember Goku's Japanese voice being so repulsive. But then I mostly remember the English dubs.

 

Well, I do remember the Japanese "cha la, head cha la" theme. And now that's stuck in my head. Great.

At first I read that as "get it on with MuppetFace."

Very nice. Don't crop the T50RPs out of the shot! Let's see how the pair looks together.

biggrin.gif  I tend to hype up the confusion thing quite a bit.  Truth is, one gets used to it fairly quickly.  And because we don't have the exact same avatar, there are subtle differences that tend to become more glaring over time.

It was meant to symbolize the futility of coming up with something as good as the original.  But I also went that way because that event (and the way it went down) just cracks me up every time I think about it.

Well we haven't ruled that out either.

The cable in the first pic wasn't from my T50RP (Nami-chan) but from my MS1000. Ask name and ye shall receive.



It's supposed to be like a Obj2 but with a few different opamps used in it, but hell if I know what's the difference is since I haven't had the chance to use one.

BTW, for anyone that would otherwise have not participated in TMAC before, but who would like to pay homage to Mupps this month, feel free to join in!  smile.gif

Now I just have to decide which avatar I'm gonna sport...

The TH600 will be here today or tomorrow.

 

A few notes on the SM64 this morning. In terms of imaging and staging, they continue to amaze me; in this area I feel they definitely compete with the best of the best in the IEM world regardless of price. Detail retrieval is likewise very impressive without sounding analytic. What is so interesting about these is that they have that microdynamic finesse and subtlety of some of my favorite earphones like the PFE232 and Flat4, something you typically find with very heady or cerebral monitors (those which have a lot of "inner depth" in Romy-lingo). Only in this case it's found on an earphone with a very out-of-head presentation. That's something I don't encounter often.

 

It's not all sunshine and roses however. Bass response continues to underwhelm me, a rather featureless sore thumb sticking out in an otherwise elaborate tapestry of sound. Also I'm noticing the mids seem a little underwhelming at lower volumes requiring me to crank it up a bit to bring them back to life; when I raise them from the dead along with raising the volume however, the highs get slightly glaring. It's not bad mind you, but it does result in a slightly less favorable assessment when it comes to these being uber-listenable for long periods of time.

blink.gif  Understandably, I'm curious as to whether this will supplant the Flat4 (either in whole or in part) in terms of you preferences.  I think jgray would probably be interested in this as well.

Might be a bit of brute-force thinking on my part, but I'm curious as to what would happen if they tried to shove a fourth BA driver in there.

 

BTW guys, why so quiet today?

I'm sitting here in silence waiting for the doorbell to ring and my AD900X / XBA-40 to arrive.

 

Trouble is I don't even know if it will be today...

I too, was sitting in silence. We could have had virtual tea and talked audio.

A tea party with the silent one. Sounds kinda zen.
