Its VERY smooth with no popping or anything of that at all.   http://www.bursonaudio.com/the-100-step-burson-pga2310-volume-control/   Just tried it today with the LCD-3 at the Newtown store...tried the HE-1000 too....   >.< too good.   poor wallet

  Burson Audio are currently selling off their old stock to make way for newer models.   Just opened this bad boy, holy CRAP.   Cant wait to see what it sounds like after a couple hrs...   http://www.addictedtoaudio.com.au/product/burson-audio-conductor-virtuoso-es9018-dacpreheadphone-amp

yeah bit the bullet and bought the now older conductor virtuoso which ive been eyeing for a loooong time for about 1.2k. Hope it sounds good with LCD 2-s

Dont mind me and totally off topic, but just wondering if it is worth upgrading my shure se535 LE to se846 since you have both?

Just turned it over and gave it a good dusting.   Now the hissing is gone, but only right channel is working  "sigh"   Guess i should get out my multimeter :( I have no idea wehere to start... how do i know if a solder joint is bad or not?

It's such a freaky feeling >.<    Anyway now there is constant hiss more on the left channel than the right, i have a feeling it may be dust and or that bad solder joint, or maybe tubes? Ugh wish i was in the US would just send it back to bottlehead to redo it for me, lol

Thanks for your input David.   When i first started my foray into headphones in these forums, i stumbled upon the MS1000 (modded Alessandro Ms-1) and since building this headphone its changed my perspective on music in general.    I listen to mostly hip hop/rap but love my classical and...

Wow..Congrats on your retirement! I had a look at your inventory, too bad i suck at golf :( .    I couldnt help but notice you sold your Wa7d   What did you think of the Was7d/LCD2 F combo in comparison with HD650 crack/speedball, as the former is my endgame and most probable near future...

Yeah was rubbing all the dust off, power was off but still attached, must've discharged a capacitor or something because it didn't kill me.   Left channel stopped working, actually just recently took it out of the cupboard after 6 months because i thought it was toast but somehow its working...

wow...most of your speakers are older than i am, probably worth more too, lol.

How much $$ is modest?

Yes I will be attending.   I can't believe this is finally happening, I'll be flying from darwin for some other errands but i'm in Sydney on that day, I'll be there!   I can definitely bring HD650s and possibly bottlehead crack w/speedball although its been playing up ever since i...

Are you willing to sell just the cable?   Kjas   Actually this deal was quite interesting, prices are in AUD. once again i have never heard any of these headphones, maybe i should just book out an audition for the whole day? lol   Kjas.

****... since LCD-2f + WA7 or Burson Virtuoso was my next purchase, would you recommend any combo for that price that sounds better? maybe i can ask the store in sydney to set that up for me to audiition? The plan was to get a dac/amp combo, use it with my HD650s for a while and then upgrade to...

Every audiophile purchase I've made has come from impressions of entirely head-fi forums and ive spent thousands without being able to audition anything prior to buying it.. thats why it scares me.. what if i spend this money and i prefer my HD650 and crack w speedball better :O I'm currently...

For someone who loves their 650's but is trying very hard to upgrade to Audeze line this scares me..

So the weirdest thing happened to me the other day... about 3 months ago, for some silly reason i was cleaning around my crack, and I had a look underneath with the power attached (switched off) and electrocuted myself :( it was just a little shock, nothing crazy . After that, only the right...

Hey guys, cheers from down under! I've been a lurker here for quite some time (even made some MS-1000s...what a long read that thread was) but i've run into a bit of an embarrassing problem. I just bought a Crack Amp from Doc B, my first proper Amp and noticed it has two RCA inputs.  I'm still a...
