I can see your perspective. Some people love the grain of the wood/veneer to come through, especially on furniture! :D I definitely love the Eames LCW chairs in the standard walnut finish and love to see the grain show through.   That said, the Urushi lacquer with the metallic flakes finish...

Having had the TH-900s for a while and comparing the TH-X00's against them, the TH-X00's are an absolutely BARGAIN. They have most (if not all) of the impact on the lower end and a similar smoothness to through the midrange and upper range. It also sounds better balanced, as some reviews have...

Was actually shopping for an LCD-3 so I'll be on the lookout & wary of any "too good to be true" deals being offered. Hope the thieves are brought to justice here.

So far no reviews on what they've got this thing hooked up to and how it sounds?   I've just unpacked mine and got it connected to a Mac Mini and a pair of TH900s for the time being. I haven't had more than 2 mins to listen to it but will be going through a comparison with my other combo (PS...

  I heard the Alphas (not sure if they were the Dogs or Primes) with the Geek Pulse. Something definitely off with it today (Sunday) but the Alphas weren't exactly helping either. Given it was my first time listening to either, I was underwhelmed to say the least, after reading so much positive...

Hey guys, I'm going to cancel this as there were only 2 people who pinged me via PM to commit to this. It's a bit last minute but I was hoping there would be at least 5 to make it worthwhile to hold it in the office space. Anything less and someone's home could definitely serve for a mini-GT.  ...

Final ping. Want to make sure if you're still committed to attending, pls PM me. Thanks!

Sorry to hear that Fireboy. Maybe next time!

Update list of attendees and date (August 17th). 

Aug 2nd no go (even though it's the most voted day).   Looks like Aug 17th is the next day and I'll need a week or so advanced notice to get things set up.   Let me know if that works for everyone. Pls PM me or post here to confirm everyone!   -dave

So the meet isn't necessarily just for those of us with gear but ANYONE who is interested in head-fi stuff. So bring your ears too!

Pls vote on a date so we can coordinate. August is coming shortly. I can't edit the poll options without clearing the answers. :/

Looks like demand is thin so this is looking less likely. I'm still interested in doing this as our first floor office space is very open. But I will need at least a couple of weeks notice to ensure the space and scheduling conflicts on my office space and personal time aren't going to get in...

bumping this for visibility...

Great review.   I heard this at a local Vancouver meet and was amazed by the musicality of it. First listen, the music sounded extremely warm and inviting, drawing you in. Victor was playing CDs with this 47 Treasure CDP through the amp and driving a pair of HD650s. I'd be pretty happy with...
