Hey Crashem:   Yeh, Justin must really be busy. I really have not bugged him with regards to shipping my unit since putting down my deposit. But reading the posts here, these are getting shipped out, so just wanted to check on status as I have to arrange finances for the final payment. Would...

Hi Justin:   Been trying to get a hold of you. I put a deposit down on a BHSE over a year ago and last Nov or Dec (2014) got a request for front plate color. I have emailed you a week or two ago and did not get a response. I also PM'ed you here on head-fi a few weeks back and again have not...

Hi Everyone:   FYI I use to own a WA-22 and then upgraded to a WA5 which I was using for my LCD-3's. When I heard of the UE 596 I purchased 10 sets so that I would have them for the future as I knew they were out of production.   I have since updated to a BHSE (on the way, been on the list...

Quote: Hi Everyone:   Haven't posted here in a while, and just read the above post. Well, I have had the pleasure of owning both sets of headphones, the LCD-3's and the 009's at the same time. The 009's I run off of my Liquid Lightning and the LCD-3 were run off of my WA5 that was...

Hey Radiohead:   I use the XLR to the LL from the PWD, so this should give me max volume to the LL. I was unaware the RCA's cut out have the gain, that means the WA5 is much more sensitive that the LL?

Quote: Hey dj:   Not sure what the difference is here. But there is definitely something going on with your setup. I do not believe that our listening levels are that much different. My hearing is not reduced, and have had it tested and tests normal, if not above for my age group (fifty...

Let me know how you find the BHSE if/when you get the opportunity. I know I am looking forward to the chance to listen to it at some point. 

Happy Holidays everyone! Been a while since I last posted on headfi. Been quite busy with work and family commitments. That and thoroughly enjoying my LL/009 rig. Morbid, glad to hear you are enjoying your LL/009 setup! Have you gotten around to getting an Eames chair yet to relax in? Just...

Quote: Yeah, very kind of Golfnutz to invite me down. I have PM'ed him and will see if we can arrange something in the next few weeks. If it works out, I will also bring my LL down and do a side by side comparison as my audio memory is not that reliable. LOL.   Should be interesting!

Quote: Hey MW:   Hope your keeping well. Have been taking very good care of your LL/009's you sent.    If you are able to arrange a LL and a BHSE, am very interested to hear your take on both of them side by side. Am sitting on the fence about putting in a deposit for the BH with...

Quote: Congrats on the setup Morbid.   Looks like you will be enjoying the weekend! I know I am loving mine. I am interested in picking up a BHSE on the used market, but that is not because I am unhappy with the LL, just want to compare them and decide for myself. I may actually put...

Googleli: Congrats on your BHSE and your whole system for that matter. Beautiful to say the least. Let us know how the sound developes over the next 100-200 hours. Enjoy the music and the drink.:) Rumble

Quote: I picked it up for even less than that, but that was not including shipping and taxes.

Hey Complin: I did not know dealers were offering huge discounts. I was able to pick one up new at a substantial savings. I have no problems with it and is definitely better than the 24/194. Not sure why the reductions? It seems to be quite favourably reviewed in the PWD thread here on head-fi.

Quote: Hey Athenaesword:   I was initially looking at the Femto, as I really liked the Calyx 24/192. The Femto only had a couple of reviews out that I could find and although very highly praised, were not as reviewed as the other DAC, that and its price and availability kind of ruled it...

Quote: Always thought the Calyx was an excellent DAC, and I still think it is, but after listening to the PWD, it sounds a bit more "digital" than the PSA offering. When I first got my SR-009's I found them a bit bright (coming from the LCD-3's) and that's when I decided to try another DAC...

Just recently received my PS Audio PWD II with bridge. It is replacing my Calyx 24/192 DAC with dedicated PSU and it has been burning in since tuesday and without question it is a very musical DAC and a step up over the Calyx which was a very nice DAC in its own right. Haven't tried the bridge...

Quote:   Quote:   Waiting is always the hardest part when you order new gear but oh so rewarding when it arrives. Morbid I really hope your 009's come in soon, it really has to be awful to wait without music. Please post up your impressions when you get your stax rig in Peter...

Quote: Morbid:   Did you get yours yet? I know you were trying to sell your LF and HD800's.   Rumble

Quote: MH:   you will not be disappointed. Recently got the 009's with the Liquid Lightning and the definitely best the LCD-3's/WA5 combo. Looking forward to hearing your impressions of the 009's.   Rumble

Quote: States shipping is $179 to Canada,not sure about the States, or international.   Quote: It is a very comfortable chair, and for these types of chairs $1000-1500 is about the usual. The original Eames lounge chair can be purchased here:  ...

Quote:   This is what we really need more of. Head to head in good listening environments.   Looking forward to your impressions, googleli.   Rumble

Allow me to put in my 2c into this debate also.   Sonically I find the LL with the SR-009's to be very, very good. Better than the LCD-3/Woo WA5 combo, both running off of the same source (LL/009 balanced, LCD/WA5 Single ended). Soundstage is wider and deeper, much better highs, slightly...

Quote: Thanks Donny!   I plan to do a comparison of it with my WA5 LCD-3 setup. Will have to do some good listening sessions with both to compare. Am fairly busy currently.

Hey Attorney: Look forward to your impressions of all the amps at the UK meet. Rumble
