DIY turntable, or Frankenplanar
What/why? My latest project, my speakers, is nearly completed (ha! who am I kidding?), so I'm on the lookout for something new. Thanks to Dexdexter, I have a Rega Planar 3 sitting here. It's not complete at the moment (no cartridge or tonearm cable). I ordered a Denon DL-103 and am still...- digitalmind

PMB-500, an older electrostat
Earlier this week, I found an advert on a local auction site for a PMB-500. I didn't know what it was, so naturally I searched for it on Google and Head-Fi. Hardly any information came up, but I noticed that the man behind the Jecklin's also worked on these so I bought it without hearing it...- digitalmind

Smaller Huge J-Low
After building the Cyburg Stick and Buschhorn I've really gotten the DIY-flu. I'll be working on a speaker project in the new year, and figured I'd keep a log up to date with my progress here. Going will be rather slow, not so much spare moolah laying around after december. I've recently...- digitalmind

So what are W10VTG's worth these days?
I have no idea how much these go for and I found one in great shape nearby. I took some time listening to it today, and while it sounded great, I don't know if the asking price was fair. Nor am I entirely sure I want to get back to headphones just quite yet. I did a search in the FS forums...- digitalmind

So how do you answer the phone?
Hope everyone's having a great summer! What do you say when you pick up the phone? Your company's name? Some groovy "Yo", "Whazaa" or just "Hello"? I like to do it Yeeesssss? for those that I know, but a more normal "Met Rik" (sort of like "Rik speaking") for unknown numbers.- digitalmind

Now THIS is DIY.
I considered putting it in the DIY section, but since this isn't a project I'm part of and more of a showcase I'm placing it here. How about making your own B&W Nautilus? Plenty more here:- digitalmind

Making of the Cyburg Sticks
I've been wanting to build a pair of speakers for a couple months now, and have been moving ideas from one model to the next. Never sure what to build. Well, I finally started on a project that's named the Cyburg Stick. It's the Cyburg Needle's bigger brother. Reasons why I picked this as a...- digitalmind

Picture discs versus "regular" LP's
I've recently bought a 180 gram pressing of Tool's Lateralus from a webshop along with some other records since the HDCD I have of it recently stopped working. Figured I might as well move up to the real thing. It ended up being a picture disc. I missed this little fact when I ordered it...- digitalmind

Modding the DT770/250

FE126E Horns
I've been planning to build a pair of speakers for a while now, and have finally decided on a design. It'll be back loaded horn / bass reflex hybrid sporting a Fostex FE126E driver. The design is from the recommended enclosure list on www.fostex.com. So in a nutshell: nothing can go wrong. Now...- digitalmind

Pandora stops internet streams from outside US
I'm sure most of you know Pandora. Pandora is an internet radio that you can tweak to your favorite artists, after which it plays related music. It has helped me find a lot of new music that I like, and I used to listen to it quite often. I was saddened when I received this mail today...- digitalmind

Blowup Beyer
I have absolutely no idea where this came from, when it was made, and why it was made... I just saw it and had to buy it. Duggeh style! And because you'll make me do it anyways. Does it go like this? Bigger soundstage than a K1000! This can't be right.- digitalmind

DIY Speakers
Trying to make a bit of a move away from headphones. Speakers interest me alot but along with good speakers come insane costs. I was hoping to evade some of this cost by building either clones of good speakers or building a custom plan. I'm not all that familiar with what it takes to build a...- digitalmind

I reached 1000 posts. Now I know that this isn't anything special and the real fun starts at 1500, but since that'll take another 200 days at my current rate to get there, I figured I'd just celebrate a bit now.
