Anyways, as the title suggests wondering what the general consensus of the Sim Audio 280d is, if any. I realize its an "entry" level unit but besides reading overly stellar (schillistic style) reviews all over the place I was looking for the real goods on the unit.   Has anyone heard it? ...

Considering a Rolex Sea Dweller or a Breitlng Super Avenger. Obviously two different styles of watch. Breitling with its hugeness and bling factor, or Rolex with its history and unchanged design in over 40 years. Give me your opinions please.

Man....Spectacular. Plugged into a simple Denon out. Unreal soundstage that puts the RS-2 to shame (hate to say it). I was expecting the worst, considering all the GS bashing here at head-fi. I was really pleasently surprised with the warm, rich sound emonating from this instrument. I failed to...

Just had to share. Out of curiousity I e-mailed a sales rep from a Canadian distributor for Ultrasone enquiring about the Edition 9. He replied telling me that he could point me to a seller in Toronto that was offering them for $2750. Ouch......

Would any of my Canadian breatheren have any experience with ordering from Price Japan? If so, let me know your experiences with customs ,duties,taxes....the whole nine yards. Ive been eyeing a pair of DX-1000, would like to pull the trigger. Any experience,good ,bad,indifferent would be...

Ive been eyeing Mapletree for some time now.However ,Ive also been considering a GS1000.I will cut to the chase now and ask,does anyone know if the new HD2 pairs any better with the GS1000? Ive heard mixed responses regarding the Ear HD+ when paired with a GS1000.The HD2 apparently combines...

Hi guys,Im wondering if anyone one could tell me what the average build time would be for an Ear Purist.I didnt want to bug Dr. Lloyd with such a question until Im more a less ready ($).I know alot of you love the Mapletree design, especially the synergy with an RS-1 ,RS-2.

A couple of weeks ago I chimed in yelling to the world that I just received my new RS-2s,the sound was wonderful,everything seemed great. Fast forward two days later when I notice a fair size gouge in the inner ridge of one of the cups.( not to mention a nastily crimped cable). I thought...

As the title of the thread suggests.Using a pair of Grados directly from my pc(ampless),via a sound balster live card. Would I be better off upgrading my sound card or better to go for an amp? If you could only pick one route (upgrade),which would it be?.Where do you think I would notice more...

Hello people, Picked up a pair of new RS-2s last week.Ive been loving them ever since.Overall I would say that Ive been quite lucky with the finish quality,considering the famous RS-1 "Late Friday" thread. However,one of the cups inner ridges (where the bowl sits) has 2 small chips on...

Warm,inviting,smooth.....best way to describe them right out of the box with only 4 hours use. Comparing them to my SR-80 is blasphemous.Bass is fantastic,rich,mids are tame,seperation delightful.This can could handle any genre wonderfully. Just had to share.

So,I finally have the funds to purchase some new 650s.I will also be in NYC next weekend.I thought GREAT,timing is perfect......WRONG.B&H is closed next weekend,JR is out of stock,any ideas?

Just wondering if anyone would know if Guitar Centre generally keeps an adequate stock on hand.?Nothing worse than a place that carries one of this ,two of that,just sold my last one ,shipment in two weeks kind of scenario.

Living in Toronto.Been eyeying HD25s for a longtime,unfortunately they cost 380 plus taxes here.Would like a new pair ideally. So...my question is.Anyone know of a good store lets say in Buffalo?Do they have a website? Thanks in advance.

Hello people, Just picked up a pair of DT250s,lovem so far.Question:Is the headband cover easily removed? Thanks

Hi guys, Called up Bay Bloor Radio in Toronto,wanting pricing on the HD25-1.Was expecting maybe $250.00 -$280.00,considering how pricy BBR can be.Mr rude salesman tells me $389.00!,almost fainted.Can you beleive it?Could this be a serious mistake in their pricing?Yo lucky guys in the US can...

Hi guys,Im the proud new owner of some SR-80s,listening to ITunes radio alot.Ive noticed that when listening to lower than 128kb stations (ie 56kb) receiving a staticy sound.Paranoid about the Grado rattle issue I guess.This static would be normal considering the lousy source(I hope).Any input...

Hi guys, Could some one please tell me where I can purchase Alessandro products in the Toronto area , retail?. I cannot track them down anywhere. Any input would be appreciated.

Hello people, Ive been lurking around her for the past 6 mos. Im going to take the Grado or Alessandro plunge (finally). My question is would anyone know of a retail location in Toronto or preferably Mississauga where one can purchase Alessandro product. I know of a few locations in Toronto...
