I'm not sure if it's from being exposed to cold air during shipment (moved from england to italy during the cold months) but mine simply fell off, and i'm not too terribly upset about it (at least enough to bother Rhydon/go without them for the time it would take to send them back) but for the...

Quote: Anyone have any idea what size is preferable?  I'm guessing .125" but I'm not at home to messure the shafts.   On another semi-related note: my flats came in from ttvj and man, i'm loving them so far!  I do miss some of the highs every once in a while, but for the most part I...

Yes, that post was a scary one indeed...almost got me to order a second pair hahaha.  Figure I'll hold off and just enjoy what i have/no reason to bogart all the goodness ;) Just ordered some flats from TTVJ so hopefully they hold as much synergy with the magnums as some here claim.  (I've...

Quote: Nice :)  I'm fairly certain you'll not be dissapointed; in the rare event you are I can garuntee you won't have a hard time selling them.   Prepare to fall in love :)

Quote:   I like the look of that!  (I'm pretty much using my rod blocks as rod tips atm (minus a mm or three on each side) seeing that I have a pretty huge skull, so I wouldn't really be able to pull the "lock them in place" thing off)

Quote:   Ah, my apologies, I meant rod tips (although some sweet metal rod blocks would be wonderful too )

Thank you for this :) Quote:

Speaking of rod blocks, mine seem to have fallen off, and while i did my best to save the one (this happened while on vacation) it was eventually lost, and I have no idea when the other one fell off/it's whereabouts.   Do any of you have any good ideas for aftermarket rod blocks, or am I...

So word to the un-wise: Check voltages on the rear of your speakers  I ordered the 230v, but apparently there was a mix up, so I meow have two blown 110v 5s hooked up that I haven't heard yet after a month of waiting on my DAC lol...their customer service (CS) was on point and responded very...

All great bands thus far; if anyone is interested in more of a hard rock take on the genre blackbird raum could be worth your time. Just incase someone checks them out and hates them i'll +1 to bon iver to keep this relevant  lol

Thank you so much!  That was exactly the answer I was hoping for, very informative, and with lots of examples :)  That Marantz looks delicious (exactly what i was searching for).   Thank you for your help fine sir(s) (or Ma'am(s))  

Hi there, I was wondering if there are any solid DACs to use as a receiver in my living room, I've recently gotten the emotiva pro airmotiv5s and a G-d audio NFB 17.2.  I was planning to upgrade by buying three airmotiv6s for use as the front three speakers, along with a sub, and was curious if...

Quote: Prepare to fall in love, they certainly lived up to their hype in my house i loved them even w/o the burn in, which has only enhanced their sound.

Quote: Thanks!  I agree :)  I actually just ordered some of the vinyl remasters from bloodmusic, meow i just have to work on figuring out what TT to buy xD.

Two days after my 5s arrived...C'est la vie lol   I must say though they're making wonderful paperweights/decorative boxes as I wait on my NFB 17.2 to arrive

I'm also waiting on a 17.2 to be made/shipped, will be pairing it up with a set of emotiva pro 5s/optoma HD33 (hoping they'll fill my living room temporarily while i save up for a proper 5.1/7.1 set and know they'll then make a great computer speaker combo when that fabeled day arrives.  ...

Just bit the bullet and ordered the 5s to feed from a g-d NFB 17.2 that's on it's way as well, hoping they'll fill my medium sized living room with enough sound to "feel right" with the optoma HD33 projector...man cave could be complete (but i'm guessing i'll have to get a nice sub eventually)...

Yeah that's why I figured it was a moot point, but it was the only way I could fathom being able to tell a difference (IE having a bad FLAC rip compared to a good WAV rip/or source)

In reference to the "FLACs sounding inferior to un-compressed WAVs" I'm not attempting to stick up for Steve, nor discredit myself for that matter; however I will say that I've recently been introduced to EAC, and can tell a difference between a FLAC properly ripped (there are other equally...

Quote: I can agree with this statement 1,000%, to my ears they went from bass heavy(and it def. dies down...although I must say it stays controlled the entire time IE is never "boomy"), to "nearing" the SR325 shrillness/ear piercing highs (albeit for only a few hours) then the highs die...

Quote: Hmm, I can't comment with any authority, as I didn't have these beauties with my non-magnum'd cans, but I can say that I don't feel the additional weight on my head (read next quote/reply xD and I have approximately 0% inclination to place the old vinyl one back on to...

As Promised :)  *Sersiously fighting the urge to let them break in while decorating my face* alas, they'll be domeless for at least 50ish hours, but i'm sure i'll let the later 2/3 burn in happen while firmly attached to my noggin :) stock chrome cups/black manta headband/10ft. black dragon...

http://www.youtube.com/user/MusicToHealUrSoul has a lot of the "epic" soundtrack type music, along with some piano gems IIRC.  ...if that is the type of thing anyone's looking for.    Guitar wise: Funkadelic - maggot brain, death - voice of the soul, most anything by billy mclaughlin, and as...
