    Is there a Mapletree Ear+ junior?

    Figures I miss the one for sale.  But I really appreciate the discussion. I too really love the Grado sound; I'm not sure why exactly but it just appeals to me over anything else. The little dot seems like a good option but the more I read the more I feel like I'll be keeping my eyes open for a...

    Is there a Mapletree Ear+ junior?

    Thanks for the thoughts; I've been going through the LD thread and the tube rolling thread it looks really promising. How similar is the sound to the Ear+? It's kind of hard to describe but that sound that the EAR + grado seems to generate I'm looking for a little taste of that. Does the...

    Is there a Mapletree Ear+ junior?

    I'm looking for something (tube preferable but open to anything) for my rs 2 either DIY or manufactured. I really like the Ear+HD and but unfortunately it's about twice as much as I can spend. I've been looking for a used model but nothing so far. So now I'm wondering is there something out...

    er20 sizing: babyblues or regular

    Thanks TacticalPenguin, I tried to get a picture of the earplug in and its surprisingly hard to take a picture of that. But I had someone look at my ear with it in and yes the last flange completely hangs out. I think the diameter of my ear canal is normal but they're just shallow?

    er20 sizing: babyblues or regular

    I'm not sure if this is the right forum, in my searches er-20 threads were all over the place, please move if not I'm looking to buy a pair of er-20 earplugs after reading the countless recommendation threads I found via search. The only thing I'm not too clear on is the sizing. There is the...

    NJM/JRC4556 suppliers other then mouser?

    Thanks error401, Yea those were the ones I found on ebay $8 for shipping +20 cents extra per chip from the uk. newark is newark. I'll see if ordering from mcm directly is any better but its probably the same as newark If only digikey had them, anyone want to go halfsies on a 2000 pack

    NJM/JRC4556 suppliers other then mouser?

    I'm looking to play around with the njm/jrc 4556ad. I hear it sounds great with grados. The only problem is so far I can only find it at mouser who want $19 to ship to Canada and newark ($12, 15 days lead time and all the problems that come with[or at least used to] newark.) Ebay is just as bad...

    It looks like they updated their english page and added some pictures http://www.little-tube.com/forum/for...sp?TID=31&PN=1 The front tubes appear to be EF92 and 6CQ6 (radiomuseum.org says these are equiv.) I can't see any markings on the power tubes and the page doesn't mention them in the...

    Tigers having a sale

    Maybe tigerdirect.ca is different, but I've gotten every single rebate back I've sent in without any work other then the required making a copy of the invoice and buying a stamp. The once I got a damaged componet I was able to return it to a tiger retail store without any trouble. That being...

    Poor Your E2 Knowledge Here

    I'm thinking of purchasing a pair since the price is right. I figure asking here is better then a new thread. Basically I don't care about the isolation that much (maybe its from being a grado owner) but with the current ipod earbuds (which I hate) I only listen at about 15% volume. I can...

    Grado dealer in Ontario?

    I bought a pair of Grado's from audioshop's brick and morter store in Ottawa and I was able to talk them into price matching headroom's price after conversion to CAD. This was several years ago and in person so I dont know if they will now or by email, but I suppose it's worth a try.

    Grado HP-2 rattling?

    I don't know about getting the drivers from Joe, but if I understand correctly Grado does the repairs in-house in Brooklyn, NY. I've had to ship my Grados there from Canada for repair.
