    Montreal summer meet?

    It's been a while since I attended a headphone meet, I'd sure be interested in a nice summer meet with good headphones, good beer and good company. I'd be fine with any of the four dates, with a slight preference for the second week-end of August.

    Montreal meet at the SSI, april 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

    No pictures? I wish I could have attended again this year, but I couldn't fit it in my schedule unfortunately. Hope you had some fun despite the little incidents.    I have to agree with Petyot concerning public meets though, I'm not sure if the risk is worth it to bring very expensive gear...

    Summer Montreal meet, August 14th

    Bonne stratégie. Personnellement, à la maison, j'utilise mes speakers 95% du temps et mes JH13 sont parfaits lorsque je suis à l'extérieur.   Quels speakers utilises-tu?

    Summer Montreal meet, August 14th

    Quote: I think the HD25-1 are the phones I've owned for the shortest amount of time, I put them back for sale less than a week after I received them. They had the stock cable though, so I'd be curious to hear them again with a HD600/650 cable.

    Summer Montreal meet, August 14th

    I'll probably be there around 10:30, 8:00 is way too hardcore on a Saturday morning.

    Summer Montreal meet, August 14th

    I'm certainly interested. The best way to have a cheap quiet meet is to do it as someone's place, I don't think it would be economically viable to rent a room as I doubt we'll be more than 5-6 people. I offered a while ago to do a meet at my apartment, the offer still stands. Philippe, you saw...

    JH13 deal

    Very good deal indeed. I was a victim of the Black Friday sale, I wonder how many wallets will be teared up today.

    Need an easier way to tell the size of a thread

    One of the most important missing features IMO, all threads now seem the same.

    JH16 I mean, I can't edit my post for some weird reason.

    JH Audio JH16 Pro First Impressions

    Except you haven't heard the JH13 which means you having nothing to back your claims as opposed to 3X0.

    Review: Clash of the Titans (3D) - JH16 Pro vs. JH13 Pro

    Quote: Seriously dude, just buy a pair of JH16 or let it go. Your JH13 don't sound worse than before just because JH Audio released a more recent model.

    Big Platform Upgrades Coming to Head-Fi Very Soon!

    The transition was done smoothly, I'm not too much disoriented. Is there any way to disable the right panel with tags, review, etc.? It takes almost the third of my MacBook screen and it's not stuff I'm really interested in, the discussion is where the meat of the forum really is.

    Review: Clash of the Titans (3D) - JH16 Pro vs. JH13 Pro

    I have owned and heard many headphones considered high-end before buying the JH13 so I know pretty much where my preferences lie in terms of sound. For reference, my favorite full-size headphones is Stax SR-007, which is by no means bass-light. I haven't heard the JH16, but I can say with...

    Montreal SSI meet impressions

    Is the Phoenix the Audio-GD amp that was present at the FSI meet? I can't comment on sound, but one thing that really annoyed me is that it produced some kind of static sound when changing steps on the attenuator. That would drive me crazy on the long run, I wouldn't buy the amp for that reason...

    That would be great! If you want to try any of the stuff listed in my sig in exchange, it will be a pleasure. I also have a HeadAmp GS-1 coming my way. About a summer meet, my offer to host one at my place still stands. It's pretty easy to get here by public transportation, 165 bus from...

    Pico Slim first impressions and reviews thread. See p31 onwards for a couple of solid reviews + pics + useful info.

    Just got mine, I love the form factor and the look of it! Super precise volume control, probably the most quiet portable amp I've heard and no noise when changing volume (unless you go to ear bleeding levels). Very pleased so far.

    I just listened to it and I stand behind my point, I'm not sure how you can evaluate dynamics with music like that.

    SoupRKnowva, I'm not sure you really understand the concept of dynamics in hi-fi audio. It refers to the amplitude of sound waves and how well audio gear portrays the whole range of possibilities from very soft to very loud, how well it executes transitions between loud and soft and how well it...
