    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    So the AWG values don't really matter, just pick a length and go for it as far as these monoprice replacement power cables go?

    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    The laying flat rather than right out of the top would be nice. Will this work for the crack without any trouble?:   http://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=7676   Does the AWG # matter for matching the right one to the crack?

    Crack;Bottlehead OTL

    Hi Crack owners. Are there any good alternatives to swapping out the stock power cable, besides the direct upgrade from Bottlehead for their nice power cable kit? And what do you think about the Bottlehead power cable upgrade for crack vs. the original vs. any alternatives that might be out...

    RS-1 Appreciation Thread starts here!!!!

    I hope this isn't considered spam, but I have an excellent pair of RS1's for sale in the For Sale section of the forum right now. Sad to be selling them and I will get another pair for sure in the future if funds allow it. I will be missing the Grado sound until then.  ...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    After about 100+ hours of break in on my new pair of 650's, Im enjoying Jacaszcek's "Glimmer" on these fantastic headphones. Loving it. iPod 5th generation --> Little Dot Mk I+ --> HD650. Would love to hear these with a more powerful tube amp like the MKIII.   What kind of amps are you guys...

    Having (and using?) more than one pair of nice cans

    It's also a bit of a pain if each headphone calls for very different amplifiers...or do you guys try to get an amp that will be good at powering all of your headphones?

    Having (and using?) more than one pair of nice cans

    VOX Guitar headphones - Any Good?

    If she's just learning and it's a convenience factor Im sure they're fine. But Id just plug regular headphones into her amp if it were me.

    Book-Fi

    Im also a fan of the real physical book still. For school, especially expensive and heavy textbooks I will do on my iPad. But other than that, I recently found for example a 2 book vintage version of Proust's entire In Search of Lost Time (7 books) for $15. It's the original Montcrieff...

    Whisky (or Whiskey) Fi

    Bulleit is my every day, and lately been really impressed with Woodford Reserve. Im enjoying it, especially in old fashioneds.   Anyone tried Leopold's Apple Whiskey? Nowhere near a "real" whiskey, but so damn delicious nonetheless.

    Bicycle-Fi!

    The weather in Seattle has been clearing up lately and finally got my bike out to ride around with friends and drink beer. Forgot how much fun it is. Something about getting back on a bike and riding for fun makes me feel like a young kid again. Got so drunk I fell off riding home last night...

    Having (and using?) more than one pair of nice cans

    Just in general wondering how many of you have more than one pair, and how you go about using each? Ive recently bought another nice pair of headphones and debating whether to just sell the one I enjoy least to keep just one go to setup or keep both.   Now I realize in some ways no one pair of...
