And now I'm going home with a new Bifrost 4490! :k701smile: If you haven't visited their retail store, Schiit Audio did a great job with setting up listening rooms. I got to demo their DAC & amp stacks, notably my dream setup, a Mjolnir and Gungnir Multibit, as well as some headphones. I...

Greetings Head-Fi'ers! After a long hiatus from using headphones on a daily basis, it's great to see the Head-Fi community going strong. Eleven years ago, it began with a purchase of a pair of Sennheiser HD-280s, and grew to buying a Meier Audio Corda Arietta, a Sennheiser HD-650, an ESI Juli@...

I know some of us on this board wear corrective lenses. I recently purchased a new pair of specs (Versace frames and Crizal Alize lenses for those who want to know), and out of curiosity, what's your prescription? I'm have high myopia and here are my numbers:             SPH   CYL   AXIS...

Looks like a few have been bought and sold, and I trust BJC since I have 8' LC-1s that I'm keepin' for life.

Anyone having an issue with the app that controls Juli@? I keep having to reinstall the app every time I boot up in order for it to work. I can however change my sample rate settings in the Audio MIDI app under Mac OS X. I contacted ESI support over a week ago with no response yet. Also, I...

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...73542041338932 Here's the link to "Who Killed The Electric Car?" in its' entirety on Google Video. Be forewarned however, since it's an illegal copy of a DVD screener to the MPAA, so it probably won't be long until it's removed. If you haven't seen it...

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...n_page_id=1770 Saw this on the Apple's main website. I know there are already Head-Fi meets, but what if there were a Head-Fi flash mob?

The Zeiss Sonnar T* 4/1700 weighs about 564 lbs. and there is one buyer so far. An action photographer's wet dream perhaps?

Apple recalls 1.8 million batteries supplied by Sony for overheating problems: LINK

Woops..please delete this thread, as the topic is already being discussed. Sorry!

I just ordered my copy from B&N.com today, and wondering what intial thoughts you guys have. From what I hear, especially the 30-sec clips on the iTunes Music Store, the new album has a bit pushier feeling to it, and the drummer seems to have a bit more confidence.

I know alot of us like watching movies, and especially collecting DVDs and such. I was just wondering if anyone in forum especially likes the Criterion Collection. How many titles do you have, and which ones? Also, do you have any of the now, sought after LaserDisc titles? I only have 6 so...

My uncle paid my family a visit last night, and we discussed his longtime hobby of being a stereophile. He mentioned he used to own a pair of Yamaha MSP-1 speakers, and regretted selling them for dirt cheap in the Philippines before he left for the United States. He raved about how they had...

So I got the album a week ago and I'm quite pleased with it, but not as much as the previous albums. Though there's one bump-in-the-road that bugs me: the SQ. It's noticeable in the first song, in which Ben Gibbard's voice just seems recessed and not focused. But overall, a nice album if you...

I recently purchased these earpad covers from B&H Photo ($20.40 w/ UPS 3-Day Select shipping), and just received them in the mail today. I always wondered how they'd feel, so I decided to try them with my HD-280s. Initially, they felt comfortable, like you're drying your ear with a soft cotton...

I'll be traveling in a couple of weeks, and I'm thinking of buying a cmoy amp to use along with my HD-280s and my PCDP for those moments of needed audio heaven. However, I've read that a few board members had their cmoys confiscated because they looked suspicious, or whatever. I'm going through...

I wanted to go portable, and having the HD-280 is a bit of a pain because of it's size. I'll be traveling in a couple of weeks and the flight, with waiting in the terminal, is about 16-20 hours. You guys think it's a good idea to buy E2c's, or should I just keep the HD-280s? I'm a neutral...

Anyone notice what headphones are used in movie scenes? Recently I watched "The Upside of Anger," and in the radio station where Kevin Costner's character works at (sorry if I'm spoiling the details), they all were wearing HD 280s. I think I remember seeing Robert De Niro wearing HD 25s in "Hide...

Anyone listen to choir music? I recently browsed the iTunes Music Store for some classical music and stumbled upon this choir. I downloaded their most popular song, "Miserere mei, Deus" and gave it a couple of rotations. Man, their sound brought me to heaven! Give it a listen if you guys can and...
