I've been pretty happy with my pinnae for 46+ years, but I've been thinking about having them reshaped to achieve better synergy with my AH-D2000. Can anyone suggest a pinna shape that works well for closed headphones? Feel free to comment on other shape/headphone combinations that you like.  ...

Vibrations, including sound vibrations. If you gently tap a tube with a finger nail, tap the amp case (probably a better idea) or remove the headphone plug (which I usually don't do while the amp is turned on), you'll hear it. I can snap my fingers without touching the amp near the Philcos and...

I really liked the stock 6JI tubes, but had one fail. Little Dot gave me a song and dance about having to clean the tube pins etc, but one clearly failed (major hum; glow was distinctly different from the good tube). It wasn't worth the hassle to pursue it, so I tried a bunch of cheap 6AK5...

According to anyone who has been in (including myself) or have had a loved one or friend maimed or killed in a car wreck involving a drunk driver. You have a drinking problem. I suggest that you seek treatment before you kill someone.   Quote:

You should have been arrested and charged. The cop should be suspended. Glad that my family and I don't live in your neck of the woods.   Your judgement is impaired when drinking and you shouldn't be driving. Period. Your judgement is also impaired while sober (assuming that you were sober...

Good choice (what I use and recommend). Better to save your hard-earned $ for purchasing recordings or going to live shows.   Quote:

No you can't. Hopefully you'll get pulled over and arrested before you kill someone.   Quote:

A few of us posted impressions above. I switch the power supplies from time to time (just for laughs) and find the bass a little tighter with the Pyramid, but nothing earth-shattering. Was it worth $17 + shipping from Amazon? Maybe... if only to get rid my power strip of the fat wal-wart plug. I...

+1 on Charlie Brown (Vince Guaraldi). That is a beautiful record that I listen to throughout the year.

So what actually 'breaks-in', the power supply or the DAC?   Quote:

Although the RE0 is middle of the road in terms of SQ overall (i.e., adequate; nothing to write home about), IMO it does do a much better job with acoustic (jazz; acoustic rock) than heavy-duty electric rock recordings.

Perhaps featured items could expire after a set time - say one week? Then have a link to formerly featured items.   Redudancy also adds to the length of featured items sections. Perhaps one reference to a particular reviewer/vendor. E.g., Steve Guttenberg has four links and HiFiMan has two...

More like an atmosphere of unease and unsettling boredom to accompany truly terrible acting. All three main actors looked like they would rather be doing anything else other than performing in this film.   Even the special effects (particularly the animated characters) were lame. I would...

Check out the original with Robert Shaw and Walter Matthau - that's a great film!   Quote:
