Sellers remorse on high end equipment
I sold some lovely gear to pay for rent and groceries a while ago. I was desperate at the time without a job. Although I didn't want to sell it, the stax phones and amp has been enjoyed by a few different owners since then on this and other forums, so it helps to think that other people have...- ymv

Review: Audeze LCD-2 (r1 & r2), HiFiMan HE-6, Stax SR-507, Stax OII MKI/BHSE, et al
Quote: Yeah okay, I wasn't planning on making any quick decisions, but the idea of buying gear just to try it out is a bit of a turn off. Audiogon is pretty great though, I'll keep my eyes out for players selling in Australia. cheers mate.- ymv

Hey Asr, Thanks for sharing your experiences, I'm curious how you went about auditioning the sources? I want to do some auditioning soon and wonder about how I should go about it; take gear into a hifi shop, or borrow a cd player for a few days?? I know of a few places that have good cd...- ymv

Stax SR-507 - Sept. 1, 2010 , Stax SR-207 - Oct. 1, 2010 What!!
Just received my 507's from PriceJapan. Good service if anyone was on the fence. Unfortunately nothing to drive them with right now! I had an SRM-1 MK2 PRO that seemed to be mine on ebay, but got pipped at the last few seconds. Put it down to my lack bidding experience... Just gotta keep my eyes...- ymv

post pics of your headphone set up and listening area
Nice setup AudioDwebe, I am using the same IKEA tables as a rack too. The headphone attachment is awesome, what did you use to do that? If you were looking to downsize the racks, one thing I did was to use some speaker spikes. Just screwing one set straight into one of the table tops, and...- ymv

Lucid Listening?
Hi Soozieq, There's no problem with not coming back, we always do. It's the same place as where we dream, it's just most of the time we're in dreams and unaware of what's actually there. We always wake up in the morning. Something called the "silvercord" which connects us to the physical body... -
Lucid Listening?
Hey guys, Great experiences. I've had similar things, though while trying to astral project. Looking into this could clear things up for you... Here is the basics of it... The aim of astral projection is to have an obe or outer body experience. To have one, all we need is... -
The Stax thread (New)
Thanks, I'll give that a shot now, Spritzer. I bought the phones new 7 months ago, but only started using them 1 and a bit months ago as I was waiting for the amp. So they sat in their box for a while... Ah, ok, are these cables a poor choice? In what way? What would you suggest?- ymv
