    Thunderpants (T50RP mod) Group Buy

    Hello everyone,   I hope you've all been well.  It looks like Christmas came early this year!  Upon returning home the other day, I was flummoxed to find a box addressed to me waiting on the porch.  I was not expecting a package and had no idea what it could be.  I was both excited and a bit...

    I helped organize things as a service to the community and don't expect any special treatment, but hopefully we'll start to see more of our orders being filled. Quote:

    I received my TP1 at the beginning of February, but sent them back several days later due to some quality control issues.  Since Gary was unable to strip and refinish the cups, he offered to create new cups from scratch, although he didn't have my original wood choice available.  That being...

      Lol, I think you're the only other person on head-fi to even mention Sunfire until now =).  I was originally introduced to the brand when my father purchased the Sunfire True Sub Signature when it was originally released.  Needless to say, I've been a fan ever since.  I was planning to build...

    Thanks, they're mahogany.  I agree--the mechanism is particularly nice.  It's smooth with gently rounded edges, and well finished.     Quote: Well, considering the base price for us was $450 and a new pair of HD650 would probably be about $350, I'd say so.  Especially since they're...

    First, a picture!     Sorry for the late response.  I was taking a weekend Microsoft Certification course which sapped all my time.   Quote: The packaging was minimalist, but good enough--the headphones came in the original box with a bag around them.  The box was then packed...

      Hi all,   I'd like to apologize in advance for the briefness of my post--I'm really busy at the moment, but wanted to give you guys an update.   The good news:  I received my pair of Thunderpants!   The bad news:  They appear to have stock pads instead of the ones I...

    I agree on both counts.  As much time as necessary should be taken to ensure each pair is of the highest possible quality, but more frequent updates would help allay any concerns customers may have.  That being said, the specs for each pair would be a nice touch on a spreadsheet, but really the...

    Yep--if a new group buy becomes available, the list on post#99 may be used.  Also, I'll update it with any new users who have filled out the form at that time.   Quote:

    Flashlight-Fi (LED & Conventional)

    There are some really bright (and small) LED flashlights out these days.  Many of the more professional tactical lights take (R)CR123A, 18650, or other lithium ion batteries as apposed to the conventional AA or AAA, as they require higher voltage compared to conventional flashlights.  CREE...

    Hahaha, I know exactly how you feel.  I'll update post #99 per your request.   Edit:  There, that should do the trick!  (I know it's not fuschia, but I think it gets the point across =)).   Dragoonv--I too would be curious to get a progress update as well. . .      Quote:

    You're welcome to fill out the form and I'll add you to the list, however, there is no guarantee there will ever be a second group buy. . .

    Sorry guys, but I don't have any updates for you either.  They'll be ready when they're ready I guess, plus the anticipation and surprise will make it all the more exciting when we're notified they ship =).

    Thunderpants (T50RP mod) Group Buy

    Yes, Radio_head is correct.  You should NOT send any payment as there is currently no second group buy.  If, however, the opportunity for a second group buy presents itself in the future, the list which I have provided in post#99 may act as a reference for those who originally showed interest...

    which sounds better blu-ray drive on PC or external blu ray player?

    Hi iam1simpleguy,   I'll take a different approach:   I would argue that a dedicated Blu-Ray player is better, as long as you get a decent one with sufficient capabilities.  This is especially true if you're planning to use an AVR via HDMI for sound processing.  For one, unless you have...
