Yeah... it CAN be all yours... Not sure what is sadder - disassembling the system, or no longer being able to enjoy it as it sat idle. Oh, well, Gibsom & Martin are helping me recover.- pabbi1

Dallas, TX - Sunday, September 29th, 2013 - "Big Tex Wears Headphones Too" meetup
the tinnitus now keeps me from even using a headset at work, so.... a nearfield 2.1 system through my computer and a Xonar card. Decidedly a step down. I'll give this a few months until I get sorted in Portland, and see what the new mancave layout looks like before getting serious. Oh, and I...- pabbi1

He60 Electrostat Rig or High End Dynamic Set Up
Do not judge the he60 by the hev70 - no greater mismatch in headphones and amp has ever been created. Get a decent stat amp, and you will immediately see the difference, and likely never turn back. I was an original fan of the hd600, and moved to he60 and hd800. The he60 stayed, the hd800...- pabbi1

So, like this one time, at a Head-fi meet, I broke a Senn HD-800 cable...
Ok, here we go... and it does (kinda) look like this is a glued part, but the joint has zero structural integrity. Amazing Senn refuses to reglue this, and it is a $170 penalty to buy another.- pabbi1

Yeah, scheduling conflicts have pushed the pics off until next weekend. With better data, this will be a whole lot easier to discuss.- pabbi1

So, like this one time, at a Head-fi meet, I broke a Senn HD-800 cable...
Knocked a pair of HD800 off a table, about 30" to a carpeted floor, and it separated the plastic / molded rubber / heatshrink / plastic from the metal ODU connector. Both sides look to be flush surfaces, but the same diameter, so I just can't figure out how this was attached, much less how to...- pabbi1

Yeah, i replaced the earpads and headband a few years back on the he60, but if beyer can use leather... geez. Maybe the NEW Senn stats will have leather. ;-) Just fanning the non-existent flames.- pabbi1

Quote: Yeah, we wanted it to be a surprise... so, surprise. ;-) Reminded me I need to spend $11-12k on headphones, not just $4k. Oh, did I mention best I've ever heard... but, you already knew that. -

Personal shout out to Purk for loaning his HE-90 to Justin for the meet. Sometimes I wonder what is left to hear, and as they say, you just never know.. Surprise of the meet: Shuagang Treasures - awesome in the Blue Hawaii, or... -

Sorry, no more boards or the like, just parts... LOTs of parts. I am moving, and clearing out all my non-essential stuff. Perhaps one person can speak for it all, then share as appropriate?- pabbi1

Any DIYers attending? I have a box of goodies to dispose of - a BIG box. I'll bring the eXStaTa for grins. I also have a SX-40 / SRD4 combo for sale - reasonable.- pabbi1
