    Well helloooo sports fans. How are we all? I just ate a whole thing of mini doughnuts so I'm pretty full and will, no doubt, be feeling sick in the not too distant future.. But moving on. To the guy who is wondering about the C3's bass who's name I have forgotten (sorry), here is my take on...

    Heya ladies and gents! So my C3s came yesterday!! I love them! They're awesome but I am not gonna say too much about them at the moment because, well, my brain is struggling to think of anything other than entropy, enthalpy, heats of formation, power cycles........ etc. It's exam season so...

    Very cool, DG, and maybe I am showing my age here (yeh I'm only 21 but I have the music tastes of a 50yr old ) but who are "The Gazette"? Oooh, only 5 days, huh? Mine might be here as early as Thursday then.. Still, I'm shooting for Friday or Monday at the latest, I think.

    Rightyo, ladies and gents, I have a bit of an update for you.. I got an email back from plasticsone and they want me to send them a sketch of a prototype cable (which seems unnecessary, but still, easy enough) and I have been thinking about this whole connector thing, what does everyone think...

    What do you guys use to store your IEM?

    I'll actually weigh in on this one.. I keep my IEMs in mint tins, believe it or not. My PL30s fit perfectly into one of those little eclipse mint tins (the smaller ones) and they're sturdy as anything. I can drop textbooks on them and leave them in my bag without fear they'll get damaged...

    Battery Powered Millett/Tube/Hybrid Headphone Amp

    Thanks for that info, Germania, that was indeed the amp I was referring to. I would love to build one. Just out of interest, though, what is the advantage of the active ground? Is the design of the amp pretty much the same but with an extra channel to amplify the ground? I'm reading through the...
